I have $1000 set aside and like eatsushi my first accessory will be a high-end HDMI cable for my PS3 to SXRD connection. The Silver Serpent Reference 1080p is an excellent choice:

Nice. I'll be waiting for January before i get an HD-TV.
I think it will be 1080i though :(. I'll sell it in a few months then get one with 1080p (",)

I agree with eatsushi and error5. If you have a decent HDTV especially one with 1080p and HDMI it will be worth getting a good HDMI cable to take advantage of the PS3's 1080p. I also use the Silver Serpents from bettercables.com for my other equipment and they're outstanding.

I also have about $1000 set aside (plus another $1000 for the Sony standalone BD player.) I'm getting just one or two games at the start (Resistance: Fall of Man) as I plan to spend more on BluRay movies.

I'll spend at least enough many to get the most expensive package there is, and maybe get some games... Depends on what will be released at launch, if none of the games catch my eye, i'll just wait for better stuff to come out.

i'll end up spending a couple thousand,o nly because im buying 3 ps3s and selling two on ebay. i plan on taking the money made off the other ps3s and using that to pay for the games that i'll get. depending on how well the auctions go, i'll probably get about four or so games to start.

i really hope EA doesn't screw up madden for the ps3 like they did with the 360. well they didnt really screw it up, but it was a sorry excuse for a madden title IMO. the system launches just before thanksgiving and we usually have some tourneys and such for the big day. should be some fun, just hope EA can get the game out before thanksgiving.

Where do you get your PS3 info from?? You need to do better research.

Smackdown vs raw 2007 -- not even coming out for PS3....LOL!

vision gran turismo -- next year

Medal of Honour: Airborne -- next year

killzone -- next year for sure

Nope.
Resistance... well, do we honestly need ANOTHER new 1st person shooter franchise ?
And if i want to play half life 2 i'll do so on my PC or my xbox, thank you very much.
As for Killzone 2, i won't even buy it untill i am 100% sure that they replaced the targeting system for the sniper rifle, cause the way it worked on the PS2 pissed me off so much that i went back to the game store and exchanged Killzone for a copy of Socom 2.
I'm sure my brother will get COD3 for his 360, and as for Heavenly Sword... Well let's just say i could care less...

And before anyone calls me a 360 fanboy, i'll have you know i didn't bother buying one because of the extremely limited number of games that i found interesting.
I'm just a really picky bastard :)

im aiming around saving 850-900 dollars. ill get a second controller and 2 games, bringing the total to an estimated $800. the 50-100 other dollars covers tax, estimation error, and maybe something else i'd want.

But they all do sort of the same thing, and that is rearrange what you thought was real, and they remind you of the beauty of very simple things. You forget, because youre so busy going from a to z, that theres 24 letters in between... You turn on... tune in... and you drop out...

Fiend it's people like you that make the gaming industry better for everyone.
Push those lazy a$$ basterds into making better games YEAH.

I seriously hope i wont have to be spening more than $900. I dont think i'll even have more than that to spend seeing that i have my travelling expences to cover as well in November
