The PlayStation 3, prior to the advent of sub-$300 Blu-ray players, was regarded as one of the cheapest and value-added ways of getting Blu-ray technology into your home. Despite the competitive price drops in standalone players, the PlayStation 3 remains an incredible value by offering users the ability to view and play high-definition videogames and multimedia content, all in one piece of hardware. Regardless of where your gaming allegiances lie, there is no contesting the fact that the PlayStation 3 is a multimedia powerhouse.
Most PlayStation 3 owners are new to Blu-ray hardware, and while just about any high-definition setup will provide breathtaking visual and audio presentation, there are a number of ways to fine-tune your player to maximize your player's performance.

Square Enix launches Final Fantasy X 25th anniversary site, revealing new Nomura art, books, music releases, and merchandise.
Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.
They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.
Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.
More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.
Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.
All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
get it now
Here's a good optimization tip: use the bundled A/V cables that come with the PS3! They provide the best picture, that's why Sony included them.
