I'll give you overpriced (though, considering what they are capable of, I'd implore you to reconsider).

Before I go into a rant about quality 360/PS3 games, tell me what genres you are interested in so I don't name a bunch of games and get the reply "but I don't like those kinds of games" or something similar.

And no, I'm not active in RP.

What's wrong with the PS3 is that it has very few good games right now.  Resistance?  That's really the only worthy PS3 title I can think of right now.

I'd put Motorstorm up there, too.

That is the main reason I am waiting to buy a PS3 in the winter, when such stellar titles as Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, Ratchet and Clank Future, Devil May Cry 4, Heavenly Sword, and Metal Gear Solid 4 are released.  There is also a bright future, with such continuing series as Kingdom Hearts and God of War both entering their third installments, and new properties such as Eight Days as well.  Patience is the word when it comes to the PS3.

Games i'm looking forward to:

PS3:
CoD4
GT5
MGS4
Little Big Planet (I don't know why though...)
Heavenly Sword
UT3
Warhawk
FFXIII
Turning Point: Fall of Liberty

Wii:
SSBB
No More Heroes
De Blob
Mario Kart Wii
BWii


I'm sure there's more I'm forgetting... But unfortunately, ever since I got a new HDTV for my PS3, Wii games look like total crap (gets all fuzzy when things move) and there's a delay between button presses and on-screen actions (though as far as I can tell, the motion sensing is fine).

Little Big Planet is exactly what the PS3 needs.  Between that, Uncharted, Heavenly Sword, and MGS4, it's going to be a fun PS3 winter.  Also, it's multiplatform, but I'd be remiss to not mention Burnout: Paradise, the only game that challenges MGS4 on my most wanted list.

I cant afford a 360 or a PS3.  I game on the Wii and my DS.

However I just ordered a Playstation 2 with FF and DQ VIII a pre-order of Persona 3, Ratchet and Clank and Dues Ex.  I got all of that for 200, much better price for someone just interested playing games that are good regardless of graphics.

Anyone have other suggestions?  A lot of games opened up to me and I am a bit overwhelmed. 

FF X is on my future list and I was thinking of xenosaga ep I and II eventually and lastly Kindom Hearts.  I am mostly interested in RPG's and Platformers and would like to avoid the sub par ones.

Thanks

Wait one minute...Deus Ex was on the PS2?  How did I not hear about this?  I have GOT to find that game, especially since Ion Storm no longer exists.

That's a nice PS2 package (what FF is it?).  Both Ico and Shadow of the Colossus are good platformer/puzzle/action/adventure games (that was the only way I could describe them), though Ico is a bit rare.    And I'd put Kingdom Hearts at the front of your list...it's amazing.  Xenosaga is infamous for it's ridiculously long (up to 30 minutes), unskippable cutscenes.  If you want to take that plunge, be my guest, but be forewarned.  You could also try the Shin Megami Tensei games.  Disgaea is another quirky RPG, and it's PSOne predecessor, Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure, is ridiculously hard to find, but a unique and fun game (though a bit of an acquired taste.  Valkyrie Profile and Vagrant Story also fit in that same category (both PSOne).    Also, (if you can find it), Xenogears is a classic (though rare and still $30+).  Shadow Hearts is another cool RPG with a unique battle system.  The entire Grandia series is worth playing, as well.  Suikoden is another quality series (though they all seem a little the same; just play Suikoden III.  The Star Ocean series is also worth a play.  Finally, Rogue Galaxy may be the last great PS2 RPG.  Let me warn you, I have played most if not all of these, but in small doses.  Most of what I know comes from reviews and peers.  Also, most of these games are quite rare.

I got deus ex for 5 bucks at gamestop's online store.  I got FF VIII.

As far as the rare game I got the system to play games on the cheap, so I wont be ebay hunting for xenogears.  Shadow of Clolssus looks interesting enough and I can get it new for 15 bucks.  As far as the Shin Megami Tensei, Persona 3 is one and I am going to try that first.  Kingdom Hearts I want to check out cuz I can get them not on ebay.

As far as a lot of your suggestions it is hard to find them not on ebay.  Thanks though.

I know...most of the good PS2 RPG's had about 50 copies sent to North America.  And are you going to deal with Xenosaga (and its cutscenes)?  I think Rogue Galaxy and Star Ocean: Till the End of Time are the only easy to find games on my list.

Well, I've heard it's way too drawn out and can get a little confusing (par for the course for a game with half-hour-long cutscenes, but still).  That's why Xenosaga III is nowhere to be found (though there were originally supposed to be six games).
