I can highly recommend the PS3 because while I waited 4 years to finally see a Final Fantasy title for it, it was worth it. Plus the ability to play PS1 and 2 games (and the remote play option for PSP makes it worthwhile too) is pretty good.
while Blue Ray players are coming down in price and the PS3 is staying relatively stable, it's still a good deal because of the extra options. You will want to do your research further of course, but I can rec the PS3 highly and you are...for all intents and purposes, a gamer too. I've had mine for four years I think and not a technical issue to be had, plus...whenever I've bought some bootlegged DVDs that my regular DVD player wasn't able to play, the PS3 came to my rescue (thank god too, because that DS9 boxed set my wife picked up was unplayable without the blue ray player!!! SO WORTH IT!)
I vote yes, but I'm really good at spending other people's money. :)
