My man's had his heart set on a PS3 for Christmas, so we rented one over the weekend to give it a try. He got the one game he wanted to play on it (GT5:Prologue) and both he and his friend were bored of the system in 2 hours. They went back to his PC to play Far Cry 2 and R-Factor.
To give the PS3 another chance, we tried the media capabilities. It didn't handle codecs very well and made divx/xvid look pretty choppy.
So... blah. I can't justify spending $500 on a console that I won't even use. Bring on the Wii!
