Have i made a mistake ?

Keep it, they really are good, and have some brilliant games on the way next year.

Ratchet and Clank is great fun, as is heavenly sword and if you like F1 games, thats a good laugh too.

Coming next year:
-Haze
-Gran Turismo 5
-The Getaway
-Driver 5
-Metal Gear Solid

With any luck all of the above will be good, and with them being PS3 only (IIRC) they should be optimised to look and run good on the PS3.

Thanks for all the replys :)

When i said my parents bought it for me, was not relevant at all, i just put it in there. That has nothing to do with it, and they always ask to make sure i want something. No point pretending you want something, especially when it is this expensive and waste the money.

Back to the point, think i probably will keep it. I wouldn't mind getting a 360 elite though. Looks like there is more than enough games for it, for me it looks like it has far better exclusives on the way then the 360 has.

I prefer the console, think the controller is at least on par and prefer then brand. It's just that the online play doesn't seem good, and most friends just have a 360.

I didn't expect this thread to be too useful, but any info on the online part ( pref. from a 360 and ps3 owner ) would be great :D

I play my PS3 online pretty much every night with no problems (mainly Tekken, CoD4, RB6Vegas etc.) The only thing missing is being able to send someone a message whilst your in-game\they're in game. Other than that it works great, I quite often play CoD4 online with msmalls74, without any real issues.

I don't want to get into an argument over which is better Live v's PSN, All I am saying is that PSN works fine.

Only when in the main menu, you cannot be in a game with a chat runnign in the background unless you are online and in *** same server as the person your chatting too. Hopefully sony will fix this shortly, as they seem reasonably on the ball for releasing updates.

Indeed, such an elementary feature which has been way overdue in coming. I can't believe it hasn't been put in to be honest, given the timescale of firmware updates which we receive which do bugger all most of the time. Having to switch my 360 to talk to mates is extracting the urine.

Just give us XMB in game, its not hard Sony its such an anti-social console its untrue.

I have to say 360 but only because the games out at the moment are better on this console. However, that is not to say the PS3 is bad, its far from it and really do enjoy using it as it is a quality piece of kit. After seeing Drake's fortune the future can only get better for Sony. But poor firmware updates like I have mentioned, poor online support and shoddy game ports detract what I think could potentially be a 360 beater. Just seems too little too late.
 
Yeah, its a shame really that so many games have to be ported over, with devastating results. Im hoping next year will be a good year for releases, with a fair few big name releases to come, but i suppose its just a matter of hold your breath.

As things go most of my games are bought for the 360 due do being worried about so many crap ports, but what has came out; heavenly sword, ninja gaiden, uncharted etc have been very very good. All the same though, the 360 has had a lot of brilliant titles this year.
