I just got my ps3. This is so awesome. Its odd saying this, but this is the first current gen console I've had. Something always came up, so I never purchased them.
I remember I used to get consoles as soon as they came out. I wasnt exacly standing in line, but I used to get them before most of  my friends. 
Now though, its hard to give your self time to play games when your school (im 22 BTW), with friends or doing some other stuff.
I still consider my self a gamer, cause even though I didint had a current console, I couldnt stop cheking sites like giant bomb that are all about videogames. I was still into this stuff.
I gota say though. even though its fucking awesome. Im still waiting to see the best of the console. So far I've only played hulk, gta  4, motorstorm, and drake's fortune.
I'll just wait and see what comes next.

Sell Hulk, buy LittleBigPlanet.

Lets see. 

" @narley: Kill Zone 2 is really good. "

u should rent inFamous. its a great quick game. both good and evil routes are pretty much the same but really fun. and i say "rent," because there really is about zero replay value if u do all the side activities.

If you haven't checked out any of the downloadable stuff yet, I highly recommend flower.

Concerning Killzone 2 - I say rent it first.  It's a love or hate type of game. Personally I didn't like it, but I think it's obvious that some people do.  It looks amazing, but I just couldn't get sucked into it like others have. It'd suck to buy it then be on the 'hate' side of the list, you'll never see that money again.  

Craigslist is a great place as well, ive bought old PS1 games from Craigslist like Xenogears for 20 bucks.

Killzone 2 is only worth the money if you are going to play online multiplayer the campaign is only about 6 hours long.
