dont listen to that shit.
The PS3 is a great console. I bought the wrap around fan for it, that is about all I have done for upkeep.

Fix that for ya.. 
No really I would love to be able to have better to say about the system, unfortunately I can't find any.
Cheap ass controllers that feel like they will fall apart if I grip them too tightly, the 4 or so exclusives they have nearly a year after release look, review, and from what I've played at the stores disappointing.
I HATE MS with a passion for screwing the progression of computers as much as they have but own a 360 and a WII. I'm hardly a MS fan boy but am a realist and currently the PS3 has zero going for it other then being one of the cheaper BD players on the market coupled with the possibility of it becoming more then that in the future.

ROFL... two hours after my post...
From slashdot:
Games: Sony Shifting PS3 Marketing to Focus on Blu-Ray Posted by Zonk on Sunday September 23, @06:17PM from the facepalm dept. Media Tabernaque86 writes "What started as joke among gamers Sony is now using as a Christmas advertising campaign. Kaz Hirai, president of the games unit, has been quoted as saying that the PlayStation 3 'makes a great Blu-Ray player'. That theme will be central to a wave of ads in North America and Europe. From the article: 'Sony on Thursday disappointed analysts by failing to cut the PS3's price, but Mr Hirai did not rule out a future price cut. "Going aggressive only on price without being able to back it up with content doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me," he said. A price cut would have a "real impact" on sales only if there were enough software titles to support the PS3. But analysts were skeptical and said Sony could miss its shipment targets for the year. "Without a price cut close to Christmas, reaching 11m shipments is going to be very tough," said David Gibson, analyst at Macquarie in Tokyo.'" This is regrettable, too, because there really are a number of strong titles coming out for the console this year.

the controllers hold up fine, and I just got the game lair, and it has the motion sensitivity of a wii, if not more accurate.
It has so many great aspects to it... sure, some of their purely exclusive games have sucked, but if you look at all the games that the PS3 can play due to its backwards compatibility, it dominates all other systems. also, I have yet to find any bugs or crashes, or overheating, or whatever problems with it, unlike the 360.... and the wii, well the graphics suck complete balls and that system loses its appeal after a week (thats about how long i played one until I got tired of it).
sure, playstation has made some huge fuck-ups, mainly with release dates and whatnot... but it is a solid system with far better specs than any other system out there. i havent liked a zelda since NES, never got into Halo..... so playstation is my biased choice....
one thing it does have going for it, is that all the other systems have really kind of blown their load, and playstation 3 is going to explode in the next year... especially with Metal Gear Solid.
