whilst almost being tempted to the world of the ps3 simply for a blu ray player and littlebigplanet, i found this on amazon

cheap goodness

its has an ethernet connection making it future proof, which is a good thing.

so im no longer tempted to spend £300 on a console for the 1 game that looks worth getting. you get 3 free blu ray discs, which sadly include mamma mia and hancock, but you do get wall-e and im hoping i can trade the other two in at game or gamestation for a slightly better movie...lol

went with the express delivery so should have it by saturday, although i do need to go out and about to get an hdmi cable to get full 1080p goodness

Good find hobbes. I'm very tempted. But I can't afford the HDTV to go with it just now sadly :(

I'm still tempted to buy a PS3 once I get back online. But trying to explain my need to get one and my desire to upscale to Blue-Ray doesn't wash well with my intended.

just found out if you register the product (you get a disc with it taking you straight to the site) you get another 2 free movies (batman begins and casino royale) they will take 28 days to deliver, so will need to wait to confirm i actually get these, although i dont see why not.

so to recap a blu ray player and 5 free movies for £160 (the price has went up since i got it)...sounds like a bargain to me. also sounds like sony shooting themselves in the foot, how many other people would buy this over the ps3???? it cant just have been me

we sell these at blockbusters & they are a damn fine peice of kit.

You get a disk to put in your PC that will register your player for you so you get the 2 free movies too. Let me know if you have any problems with that though (there is a dodgy batch of disks), I have the web address that will allow you to register your player.

Can also be found on various PC games, such as Borderlands, Left 4 Dead & Age of Conan
