Yo, PS3 owners, I am looking to buy a PS3 (A 160GB Slim model.) and I need your help.
What are its pros and cons? No, I don't need copy-pasta from other sites, I need your firsthand experience with it.
And try not to mention other consoles in this thread, let's keep this a PS3-only one.

BloodcatNS:
That entirely depends. What kind of pros and cons are you trying to find?

senpai_FisT:
Durability, framerates, online community and known issues and complaints.

My PS3 controller seems to wander around the house when I'm not home.. Last time I saw it, it was on my desk. Now it has disappeared.

Mr.PowPow:
I've been through quite a few PS3's so I think I can fill you in on what I experienced.

Pros: It has free online gaming, and some good discounts in the PS Store
I've noticed that the online gaming community of the PS tends to a lot lest bitchy and hostile, compared to that of Microsoft's pretentious peeps.
Despite what people say, the PS3 actually has good resolution and screen quality, on par with the Xbox 360.
Considering the size of the PS3's memory you just mentioned, you shouldn't find yourself needing to delete games very often to make room for new ones.
If untampered with, PS3's can be one of the most long lasting (major) consoles out there.
Blu ray compatible, who doesn't like Blu ray? Well okay I don't, but a lot of people do.

Cons: Despite the PS3's longevity, its pretty darn fragile. So you'd need to be pretty careful with the bugger if you want it to last. The same goes for the controllers, those things can break pretty easy.
The repair costs are outrageous, some are even as much as a new PS3.
The cons of the PS3 are more or less only when something goes wrong, so long as it is up and running its a very reliable console and I would recommend it fully.
