the ps3 does a terrible job at upconverting compared to a $40 dollar Upconvert player
Gotta disagree here Cinco. PS3 does one thing right, movie playback. IMO it upconverts beautifully.

This is really the mean reason why I'm pushing to get a PS3.

$40 a movie? I've never seen it like that, and to be honest I get my blu-rays cheaper than DVD prices at retail. There's always Buy 1 Get 1's to behad, granted not as much you just have to look for them. The most I've ever paid is $19.99 and that is for I, Robot which retails for $35. I don't buymine off people too, I get mines from the stores. It usually ends up being between $10-15 a pop which is under the retail for DVD's.

i just got a ps3, but i doubt i will get any blu rays for a while since all the movies i like and would buy are really old. not to mention it's hooked upto a 10 year old tv...

There are no other options.
It has become THE format for the next 5 years.

Downloads are the future
As long as you're not talking about taking over then no, maybe for very FEW. The idea of that is not very'user-friendly' at all (for the masses). Blu-rays aren't the future either, not everyone cares about hi-def.

I would see which games you want to play, etc. If you're real big on Halo and Gears of War, maybe you wanna get the Xbox. If you're a big Metal GearSolid dude, then maybe get the PS3. At this point in the game, they're looking pretty equal. They're both getting big name releases like Call of Duty,GTA, and Resident Evil. If you like renting movies, Xbox has HD movie rental downloads. PS3 has Blu-Ray, which you could rent or buy. I got my Xbox when Halo 3came out, and I really wanted to play that, so I chose that over the PS3. I don't have any regrets, and Blu-Ray isn't a big priority for me anyway.DVDs look great on my HD set.
But actually right now, Smash Bros. on the Wii is getting most of my play time.
