I wanted a PS3 anyway besides the games but the thing that prevented me from ever going to X-Box 360 is MGS4 and I'm looking forward to God of War 3

The notion of being the only one of my friends to have a PS3 is what drove me, now pretty much all of them have forsaken their 360s for a Playstation 3.

TBH, at the time i bought my PS3, the games available were pretty sucky.

But i do remember watching a trailer for a game called 'Eight Days' which definitely added some brownie points for the ps3, but its canceled now

but now i have PES 09 and GH:WT! yay

God Of War III.

I know it isn't out yet, but I refuse to miss out on the final game of the trilogy after GOWII's epic cliffhanger.

MGS4 was a big factor as well in my purchase.

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots was the game that cemented my PlayStation 3 purchase.

Surprisingly Rainbow Six Vegas was the reason I bought my PS3. I remember seeing it for the first time at my friends house and was amazed by it for some reason. Cashed some checks in, got some money out of the bank and bought one a week later and I love the thing to death.

Final Fantasy XIII. Maybe I should have waited slightly longer, eh.

I always wanted a PS3, but as soon as games like Ratchet and Clank Future and MGS4 came along, I had to have one. So I bought it!

I've always had a Playstation and will always have one. They make brilliant consoles (not in a fanboy way)

At the time i was buying one, the Xbox had high failure rates with the RROD.

GTA IV.

I wanted to be able to play that game, and I'd gone through so many 360's. Got a PS3 and haven't looked back.

None, 360 kept on dying on me so i switched over to PS3.

Not one specific game in particular. I just wanted to finally have a PS3 and play the games that a PS2 could never offer. Call Of Duty 4, GTA IV, and MGS4 have been some of those.
