I'm getting a PS3 and Need For Speed Pro Street for Christmas. (Well that's what I've been hinting at to the girlfriend.)

I've got a bluetooth headset, might give it a blast

I don't like the pad not having a rumble feature, or the slow updates which you can't minimize (like when d/l from the PS store)

Can't have everything!

I have two -- just only use one at a time

Actually talking off cool controllers I just watched the EyeToy demo for the PS3 (on the store) -- they're doing games like Mercury (PSP) all controlled by the camera detecting interaction with the screen (it puts a reflection of you behind the game so you have some hand/eye coordination). Kinda funky!

New pads will have rumble soon -- it was a licensing issue I think.

My download speed here is fast I don't mind updating using the PS3. If it's slow for you just download the update on your PC and put it on a USB drive or memory card and update from that...

reliability is better. over all its better. even with your graphs you know its the truth and are only hiding your feelings towards the ps3. in time, you will own one.

Must have been the TV as Blu-Ray on mine is clearly better. Everyone that's seen it on my TV has said the same. Less noise in the picture.
