Pros: Late to the PS3 party, but glad I finally jumped on board. Had a long time in between consoles until I bought the underpowered Wii about 2 years ago. PS3 seems like a quantum leap in comparison. My biggest revelation when it came to the PS3 was the fact that it's not just a console: it's more of an HTPC in a console disguise. Got this bundle on Black Friday for $200, definitely the best buy for this year.
Cons: None, except the wait. I'd wanted the PS3 ever since it came out but was scared of the price tag. Now I know there was a good reason why it was so pricey.
Other Thoughts: The PS4 may or may not be just around the corner, but the PS3 is good enough to keep me happy for a good long while. If you're new to the PS3 you'll want to Google "PS3 Media Server" for your PC, great DLNA software.

Rating: 5/5Cheaper slim
Pros: consumes less power (200w) Bluray free online 2 games fans are silent weighs 1 pound less Only $199
Cons: Cheaper designed then last gen slims still uses cheap 802.11g for wifi Can't play 1080p videos through component cables More Restrictions
Other Thoughts: This newer PS3 slim is really cheap compared to the older slim. A lot of things has been stripped. No more LEDS on power and eject buttons, Wifi LED was removed, Its fully Matt black now, doesn't have the glossy touch on both ends of the ps3 like before and also doesn't have the chrome finish where the power and eject buttons are. Need HDMI / HDCP in order to get 1080p video playback from Blu-ray Discs; otherwise, it'll be limited to 480i. May weigh .9pousds less and consume 30watt less, but overall this new ps3 fells and looks very cheep. The Playstation emblem in the front even got downgraded, now its just a print on the plastic that can fade off.

Rating: 5/5Good bundle
Pros: Blu Ray free online gaming media streaming
Cons: not glossy black no IR port included games could be better
Other Thoughts: Bought as a replacment to my launch PS3 which had a blu ray drive failure, I kinda like the older fat systems nice glossy finish better. 5 years with 1 failure isn't to bad when compared to the other gaming system I also own.
