Just about any software, or any product for that matter, gets its share of reviews in the press, blogs, forums, whatever. With a little bit of searching, a buyer is going to find out all the good and bad about the current version, regardless of its version number.

wait wait wait.

i was one of those 3. i just bought a ps3.

on another note, i have finally figured out something about the ps3. it isnt the console or lack of games that is the issue. its the marketing. it seems lame. i walked into a store to buy a xbox 360, halo 3 and a xbox live subscription, only to find out that prior to other marketing, there is no wireless card built in, and its a sh!tty usb dongle instead. pass. i hate usb wifi dongles, nothing but trouble. so i thought to myself "well metal gear comes out soon..ah ill get a ps3, i want a blu ray player anyway", and i have to say, after playing it for about 3 days straight now, im glad i bought a ps3 over an xbox. they are very, very smooth consoles. its just the marketing for them sucks. i mean a dog that turns into a poodle? what does that tell me about the engineering of it?

and playstationOne is actually decent. yes, its not xbox live, by any means. but its fairly stable and team fotress 2 plays great on it, i find matches within 20 seconds.
