You can get a nice second hand car for that 8O

At the other end of the scale, play.com are selling black PStwos for £80, which is great value for money.

Hey I'm listening, the PS3 is the only next-gen console I'm vaguely interested in. Cheers for the balanced impressions and keep 'em coming.
I'm listening too. Just never got time to comment. Nice write up and good to hear something positive for a change!

I was about to suggest a visit, but then I saw you had an Optoma HD81 projector. I still love my H78 and really don't want to see anything better as it does nasty things to my credit card! :lol:

LOL - so what, by buying the PS3 you are getting on the property ladder, saving for the future? :lol:

It's all just entertainment you fool!

Hey mate , you would be more than welcome to come round one night for a beer and nosey :) My mate has a hd79 that inspired me to get this PJ. I can remember you saying you had a good set up in the lounge as well now.

I clearly didn't realise who I was talking to when I said that! ;)

The HD81 is probably a bit out my league for now, but the Optoma projectors are stunning aren't they? Even at the cheap end they are excellent. And right now I wouldn't consider changing mine, the only upgrade it needs is some decent calibration!

Thanks, I will certainly pay a visit sometime in the not too distant future once work calms down and I can justify some gaming.

Thanks for the write up. keep up the reports mate I'm interested and flow does look cool.

Dispite all the bad press I'm looking forward to the PS3. I look at my collection and I have some class games thanks to the PS2 .

what the hell are team ICO going to make for the PS3?

What mad quirky titles are Japan going to give us on this baby ? (thinking of kuri kuri mix, Ring of Red, Gregory horror show, etc)

I enjoyed the art direction on kill zone dispite the games faults.

Devil may cry is a great IP.

katamari anyone?

Mad as fuck japaneses RPG's ?

God of war ?

shit sure it looks like a big stupid bitch of a machine with a wash out controller, but when the games start rolling in its going to fuck me and my wallet in the ass and i'm going to be happy for it.

shadow of the colossus anyone?

Hey that's what I'm waiting for :) The better the games on the PS3, the better the 360 (and Wii to a certain degree) will have to respond.

Considering the four small shelves the 360 games take up in my local Gamestation one entire year after its launch, I'll go ahead and say no. ;)

I go where the games are.
