I bought a PS3 about 2 years ago for the same reasons, but I have had it for 2 extra years than you, and being someone who has an Xbox, Wii, and high end PC I would say just wait. Within the first three or four months of me buying my PS3 I played MGS4, Uncharted and Uncharted 2, part of a Ratchet game that I was not too fond of, inFamous (which I think is actually a pretty repetitive and bad game so I will prbly never play the second one), and Demons Souls. MGS4, Uncharted, Demons Souls, and Blu Ray were the real reasons I bought a PS3 but considering Dark Souls also came out on 360 that is not a real reason to buy one anymore.
All in all I have found that I rarely ever turn my PS3 on unless I am watching a Blu-Ray. So if you already have a Blu-Ray player or do not feel like getting into the Blu-Ray market than I say just pass for now. Yeah there are a few good exclusives, but if the $250-$350 plus all the games is a really big deal for you than I would say no. You are missing out on a few good games, but I would say you have waited this long to join the party, you might as well wait a year or so when the price is most likely cut in half.
IF ANYTHING! Wait until after E3 because who knows, a price drop could be coming, you never know.
