The problem is I don't know of anything that is £20-30 which gives you the ability to receive and record freeview. Not to mention the other functions such as PSP connectivity to enable you to watch live tv anywhere or watch pre-recorded shows anywhere.

Not to mention most £20-30 freeview receivers are pretty cheap and you get what you pay for in terms of quality and you also have to have another box set under your tv.

To all the American's on this site; I wouldn't start trying to figure out the price it's going to be for you lot by doubling the UK price. I know common sense says that the exchange rate would indicate that, but we're talking about the UK here and we always get shafted by every company. I'd love it if they actually used the exchange rate to figure out our prices but unfortunately they have a whole lot more taxes to pay over here.

If/when it comes out in North America, I'd expec...

"Ghetto" is certainly the best way to describe that setup lol I certainly wouldn't have my PS3 like that either. If you need bigger than 250gb, then just use an external hard drive via usb. This is really only necessary if you're going to install linux and need a huge hard drive.

I don't think Sony will produce any PlayStation branded hard drives, as if they had plans for this they'd be in the PS3 from the start. Since they chose Seagate, I can't see them competing in...

I've seen a similar deal to this at John Lewis ( http://www.johnlewis.com/Te... ) but it's only the 40GB version that you get. This is in the UK btw. You'd think John Lewis would be an expensive place to shop, but they do price match any highstreet price and also include a 5 year warranty

I'm not too sure it's as drastic as 'do or die'. Next year is definitely looking to be an exciting year in terms of games and I for one am worried at how I'm going to be able to afford all of them!!

It seems so far away! I'd rather wait than to have a half finished game and then wait for patches to fix it though. Take your time and make a game that we can all enjoy!

I think I'll stand back and watch this one from a safe distance....

(But what I will say is why does one have to be 'better' than the other? Why can't we all just be happy we have the ability to play this video format on our games consoles?)

Bomberman is actually on iTunes as I type this. Along with with a few others including Sonic

"Wipeout HD is due to be released over the PlayStation Network in Late May/Early June 2008" - I thought it was coming out earlier than that, DOH!

I'm looking forward to this game, the PS3 doesn't have a racing game which is fast/frantic and also incorporates weapons. I've been wanting a game like this.

The problem the Wii has it's not a real next-gen console and so not everyone includes in the race. I mean, it doesn't even have a DVD player, so it's hardly last-gen lol I guess you do have your very well implemented motion controllers and that is sort of next gen? I also don't believe any of the 'hard core' gamers will choose a Wii over an 360/PS3 as their preferred system.

I think it's easy to say that 2007 was the year of the Wii in terms of sales, and it isn't exactly show...

I am SO SO SO bored of these comparisons. They are just stupid and blatantly trying to cause a stir. And it's so obvious what is going to happen - you get both camps trying to say their version is better. Who cares!! Just buy the copy for the system you have and live with it. If you've got both systems then you can choose between what controls for the game you prefer, if you want achievements or free online etc.

I petition to stop comparison video's on this site - especially w...

I can confirm you'll get one month free gold membership when you first sign up a new name, but if I'm not mistaken you can't do this an unlimited amount of times. You can only do it 3 times (I think! Or maybe 5 times). Just sign up for silver and it should prompt you that you can get one month free.

You can download demo's, trailers, themes, etc, but you can't buy the games without having an American credit card that's registered to the address you sign up with. The US store gets so much more stuff and usually always before us, so it's worth it!

There is a very easy solution to get around this 'problem'. Release some form of pre-paid cards to enable you to buy things from other region stores. I don't see why Sony hasn't already done this? I can only see how it'd help them - it means more downloads, more money for them and we get what we want. Win win situation!

Sony doesn't really do accessories as pretty much everything comes in the PS3 already. If you get a good bundle online with two controllers, a game and a HDMI cable, you do not *NEED* anything extra to get started. If Sony included HDMI cables in the retail box, you'd be set up for everything from the off without bundles.

This article says "Essential" accessories, but I'd disagree with the PS3 selection as you don't need a blu-ray remote (as your controller can do tha...

An interesting little read. Considering how many review scores for Sony's exclusives angered a lot of gamers on here, they didn't do half bad overall! Imagine if GameSpot weren't so harsh; they'd probably be first! lol ;)

I do think the industry relies too heavily on review scores though. At the end of the day, they're just opinions of an individual(s) and too much is based on them. Why can't we make up our own minds on what is and isn't AAA?

How about this for a...

I love the look and the innovation of this game, but I've always wondered what you're supposed to do? Like, what is the point of creating all that stuff? What is the objective of each level? Do you need to create things to get your little men from A to B? Or what?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! :)

Put simply - NO

Well a couple interesting points:

-Someone could have just accidentally put the HD-DVD cover in a Blu-ray box.
-One cover says Transformers, when the other doesn't.
-Why does it have 2 discs?

EDIT: The pirates were on two discs? What's the point of these high capacity discs if you're still going to separate the content onto two discs? lol I know HD films takes up more space, but I doubt it takes up a whole disc just yet.
