Buying this console made a big hole in my pocket and when it arrived it wasn't all I had hyped it up to be with. After 3 months of purchase, new games have come out and overall my opinion of the console is increasing.
So far it is not worth the money but now I know that it will be in the future when more games are released. Star Wars Force Unleashed and Pro Evolution Soccer 2009 coming out I am looking forward to adding even more to my collection.
Blu Ray playback is great and with a High Definition setup I am very pleased.
So my advice is if you have the money to spend and you want high quality games buy this console but at the same time be patient as you will soon learn to love it.
Great Console, Great Game! August 4, 2008
Clark Kent
Great stuff here... loads of features and can always find somthing to play or go browsing on the net as some browser games work on it and youtube in the living room is pretty cool! but as for backwards combatabilty.... to have the ps2 games in the 1st place you must OWN a ps2 right? well why dont u just play that for ps2 games! and hardly any consoles are backwards compatable apart from the ps2 so your not gonna get any better from other consoles.. unless you get 60gb which can atually play old ps2 games.
Best console bundle alongside GTA4! May 25, 2008

I was very lucky to have Won this console back in March. I entered the Gran Turismo UK Championship, You had to set the fastest time in a 2 Lap race around London's famous track they created in the game Rules were you had to do a 2 lap race with AI Cars on the track at the same time so that made it very hard to get the fastest lap time. In the end i was Region 7 Winner which was in HMV London Oxford Street. The competition was held over 10 Regions in the UK. My friend Aly winning Region 8 Zavvi Store also on Oxford Street Won himself this bundle too. The game is an outstanding representation on what the final Gran Turismo 5 will offer and with updates coming this year to this game such as Crash Damage and also in a future update we will expect the Nurburgring Nordschleife famous racing course. Shame i already own a PS3 so i am selling this one :) Can't wait till GT5!
An amazing console and game! April 30, 2008

This is perhaps one of the best consoles ever, it is well rounded, fast, easy to use, intuitive, good build quality and just incredible.
Perhaps one of the most useful features is its wireless capability, not only with the WiFi enabling online gaming quickly, but also networking your PS3 as a media console able to access music from your PC and play it in your anywhere. Added to this is the wireless controllers which to me is a god send as I have two dogs who always used to pull the cable out when they walked past with the PS2! Wireless controllers not only stops this, but much more freedom in movement and just easier.
GT5 is an incredible game, perhaps slightly limited on gameplay but this is more than made up for in the fantastic online environment and graphics which are breath-taking.
I would recommend also getting Burnout Paradise with this for the extra 15, as this is an awesome game, less serious in driving style than GT5 but the graphics are just as mind-blowing.
This console is best enjoyed in HD, so if you have a HD TV then sit back and enjoy HD gaming out of the box and Blu-Ray DVD.
This deal is the best on the internet right now, I stalled buying the console until prices became a little more reasonable (less than 300) and then when i saw this deal with console, GT5, HDMI cable and another game for 305 delivered, i just could not resist it. Amazon service was brilliant as per usual the whole package coming within 48 hours.
5* to the console, 5* to the game and 5* to Amazon.
Buy it, now.
