I regret buying my PS3. It has become an extremely expensive blu ray player as that is all it get's used for. I would have rather put the money towards a SFF HTPC, especially now with the new AMD APU's out.

I would say don't buy one unless there are specific titles that you NEED to play that are only avail on PS3.

no i only use pc for rpg, like guild wars 2.
i also have blacklight retribution on the pc, but i use a wired xbox 360 controller for that but don't really play it. yesterday i was debating on uninstalling it, ended up leaving it on the pc but still on the fence about dropping it.

Definitely not. Next gen consoles are just around the corner and there aren't going to be very many big releases until then. The only ones I can think of are CoD Black Ops 2 (which will be on PC), what ever the next CoD is (which will be on PC) and GTA V (which will be on PC)

Do it. Find a PS3 on the cheap and use as a dedicated bluray player and play some dedicated platform titles.

I am calling BS on this. There are so many great games on PS3 that are not on PC and there are more PS3 exclusives coming out such as "The last of us" which will be a must play. COD is trash and will always be trash no matter which platform its for and the GTA series is Mediocre at best

And your opinion doesn't make it a fact (even if I agree with it). Stick to giving advice to the OP and not rambling on like old men.
