i got my ps3 free with my sony phone here in the uk and use it everyday.

as for the cost of bluray movies has no one heard about has movie rental company Lovefilm … they don’t charge extra for bluray rental and i can also rent ps3 games

what i don’t understand is why anyone bashes the ps3 as it is constantly evolving and getting better … it’s built to last and as Sony recently announced they are also focusing now on getting more games.

biggest bonus though with the Ps3 is the true 1080p HD experience in games and movies … answer me does any other console offer this?

all you xbox lovers are all just envying the ps3. You realized that you bought such a piece of crap that you have to try to bring down the ps3 just to satisfy your ego. So sad too bad PS3 and Wii wins. Sony’s image is pure entertainment from movies to music to video games. The xbox came from who? oh yes microsoft. Microsoft’s main focus is on 0101000 business and security (security which they aren’t very good at). Leave the fun factor and entertainment to Nintendo and Sony. Even bill gates own a ps3 pshh.

Only reason I would get it is for the bluray + media player, the game selection sorta suck for it, Pc has better selection and easier to DL ^ install. Really cant say any other reason. 40GB ps3 should be 299$. Since its blu ray, price isnt going to be dropping anytime soon. Hope they chop it by another 100$.

Was prety sure you can dl ps one games through your ps3 and psp, not free anyway, which sucks, I own a lot of them.

Try again….

Now ps3 smooth elgant piece of work , no fan noise . Normal sized cables . Nice inbuild battery ..No external charger

About game play 360 played cod4 good online service but need to pay for it! Ps3 its Free!

ohh there is the bluray player watch a movie and must say AMAZING !!!

Yeah there is no much games yet on ps3 compared to 360 but i think there will be .

ps. i think people that own a 360 never ever had a console before. They just love over Micro-soft.

I have a ps2 and i know where they come from .

Unfortunately the 500GB 2.5″ SATA’s are currently 12.5mm thick. Hopefully they will sell them in the 9mm size soon. I can’t wait till I can get a 1TB HDD in my PS3, which currently has more HD films on it than I could ever have with a 360.

They are a lot more expensive than DVD9’s but they will come down in time.

Then again, the price of DVD9’s hasn’t changed much over the last 2 years, if at all. Most manufacturers still only mass produce discs capable of 2.4x which is a joke. DVD9’s need to be much cheaper and faster before BD-R will come down to a respectable price.

While I’m on the subject of DVD9’s, where are the re-writeable ones (DL DVD +/- RW)? The standard was approved in 2006 but they still haven’t hit the market.

at least massive kocks were not on my mind, yet you even went to the extent of making it your user name, so whom should we really be laughing at?

Also, from what I can tell going on your naive comments, hard drive space DOES matter. the drive can fill up quickly when you look at downloadable games, HD clips, music, software etc.
Throw in the HD TV tuner that sony are releasing, a large hard drive is even more of a factor.

I’m not a sony fanboi by a long shot (even though I do own one because it came via redemption with my $3k TV), but after reading so much crap in this thread from those who seem to get their rocks off on badmouthing one company over another I just had to add my 2 cents.

Only thing worse than fanboy crap is hater crap…..
