After all the helpful advice I got from the community members here, I finally took the big step forward and bought myself a PS3, along with three games: Valkyria Chronicles, Burnout Paradise, and Enchanted Arms.
One of the nice things about Philippine gaming is that some stores sell the PS3 with packages; that is to say a set of predetermined free games you can choose from. INstead of paying 7100 pesos for three games, picking up two good games from the older set of releases plus buying Valkyria only sets me back 6,300 pesos instead, which amounts to some savings, since I mostly play games by myself.
I'm interested in trying out the online functions though for games, so I wanted to see if I could participate in the Destructoid community's Friday Night Fights. To that end, I have a couple of questions:
Is there a primer for the FNF that I should read prior to trying to join?
Do the games used in FNF change on a monthly basis?
What are some recommended games that use the online functions to play with other people?
Lastly, and perhaps least importantly, is Home worth installing and trying out? I'd rather not install unnecessary or relatively boring stuff just yet, so I can save the hard drive for future game installs. :)

The list of games will sometimes change as newer ones come out, like COD4 getting replaced by World At War. And I expect to see Killzone 2 enter the rotation as soon as it comes out. Basically get yourself added to some friends lists and see how it goes. The times each game is expected to be played is also listed.
Home is a waste of time.If you like FPSes, get any one of the following:
Resistance 2 (Current hotness at the moment)
Call of Duty 4 (Best shooter of last year)
Killzone 2 (in March, find an Asian edition)
