After a week with my PS3, I've had some good things to think about it. Here's my judgement

The good:
-The XMB is simple and easy to use, they did a good job porting the PSP interface.
-The online gameplay is so streamlined after I set up an account. Very straightforward and very well done, especially with resistance because I prefer lobby systems and not automatic matchmaking when it comes to custom games, something that I really dislike about a lot of 360 online titles.
-PS Store a breeze to use.
-I've always loved my dualshock, and the Sixaxis really improves on it with the more sensitive joysticks and trigger-like L2 and R2 buttons, even if they are hard to use for Capcom vs. SNK 2.
-Even though the game list is short, I'm very happy with the lineup.

The Bad
-Background downloading and a way to access some of the XMB features without quiting the game is a MUST that the PS3 has yet to use.
-We nee better utilisation of the motion sensing, even though I love how it's used in Resistance.
-More free demos that Live gets that we don't get.

I'm sure I will be pleased with everything in the next couple months, because it's an investment in entertainment, not a quick impulse buy. Sure, I could buy a Wii and a hell of a lot of games for the same price, but what's the point if nothing looks like it would be fun for a short while and with little online play?
