I've decided its the right time for me to get a ps3 as the price is about right and the games i want are starting to come out 
I'll be getting a 40gb ps3 at the end of this month along with burnout paradise and dmc4, and also gonna order a dual shock 3 pad as well.
Just wanting to know if there was anything else i needed to get? I haven't bought a console since the last generation so not too sure on what other extras i need. I figured i won't be needing a memory card because of the hd, and i don't think i need any extra cables cos i'm only using standard tv
and will use the scart lead from my ps2 (this will work right?).
Any other accessories i might need? Will i need extras to charge the controllers or anything like that?
Also any game recommendations will be appreciated, i'm into all game types so throw em at me
---- UPDATE ----
So ive finally bought my ps3 and ended up buying it online:
PS3 (40 gig)
Uncharted
Heavenly Sword
Burnout Paradise
Total: £324
Absolute bargain. I have also bought DMC4, Warhawk, Tekken DR Online, Pixeljunk Monsters and a White DS3 controller lol
I am absolutely loving it at the moment! I really am amazed at how quiet this thing is, i only notice it in the early hours of the morning when everything is silent and i have the tv on mute!
Really impressed with all the games so far, i've been caning burnout and playing through uncharted (which is truly stunning), putting the rest of the games on hold while i complete them.
I set up the wireless connection went a bit crazy with demo and trailer downloads, then got tversity sorted to share my videos and im really impressed with how easy it was to set up and how well it works. Also being able to stick in a memory stick and just play whatever is great!
So basically, excellent purchase and a huge lineup of games to come and i am very happy indeed
