PS3 pre-order horror

[Sasso Palmieri]

What you watching the HD-DVDs on? Also, does the one that you stick to the 360 (which I just got yesterday) play American DVDs?

360 version. Fucking bargain. Effectively cost me £75.

What they said about region coding. Except SD-DVD is still subject to lock-out.

Haven't looked for HD-DVD filth. Not sure it exists but I'll keep an eye open for some. You like the gay stuff, right?

[Lipsy]

Filth exists, apparently (not that I would know, obviously). We have the whole no Blu-Ray filth stance from Sony going on (see also: VHS vs. Betamax).

HD-Movies being considerably cheaper to duplicate means that if you want filth then it's the format to go for...

Why you'd want to see every fold, flap or - heaven forbid - surgery scar is quite another matter.

Over to you, Curley....

As I said when I was sat two feet away from you - I don't care if you're some middle eastern king with seven wives - everyone wanks.

I've never been fond of meat shots - but most of my porn are avis downloaded, usually shit quality. Would be nice to get some top high-production lezzering on by HDTV.

Dude with a prob,i havent updated my sig in a while,im upto about 250 now,but im going to be strong and not buy any 360 games,i will just cain cod3 online till it comes out.XD

What HMV don't consider is that the majority of people getting PS3's at launch will probably already own a PSP because they're rich.

[Curley]

I think they've most defo considered it but don't give a shit.

Why the sudden push to get rid of PSP's though? Is there a PSP2 on the horizon?

This could be the reason. 20M is still respectable but, ultimately, it didn't achieve it's objective of a) booting Ingtengo from it's throne or b) introducing a 'universal' media disc. All that firmware bollox, the delays and the pricing didn't help either. I like the machine but it never really gelled as a multimedia HH.

Keep saving Henri. You'll need a min of £480 for a unit, game and P&P. Sling in a couple of extra titles, a pad, couple of BR flicks, HDMI lead and you're in £650+ territory.

Time to start dealin'.

Ah i dint know it was gona add up to all that,i thing i might call in the can i have my birthday pressie early routine Now i have it in my head,i aint gona have enuff,i have this sudden earge to go up the city and blow the lot.lol

[Sasso Palmieri]

Ultimately, the lowest entry point is £480, which is £425 + £5 p&p from Argos, and £40 for a game from Play. However, I think you'd be hard-pressed to survive on one title, so call it £520.

That's still shit-loads of anyone's money, unless you're Curley, in which case the adage from Withnail and I holds true:

"Very expensive to those who can't afford it, free to those who can."

HMV has been forced to scrap their plans for the fuck you rip-off PS3 £625 bundle after a number of complaints.

The original email sent to a “lucky fewâ€

"Very expensive to those who can't afford it, free to those who can."

Nice quote. That's quite true as well, I can easily afford one without blinking an eye, even if I had no plans of using it, and mine's gonna be here in two weeks, free as handful of grass ripped from a public lawn.

So when I start rants against the common man being fleeced, it's not because I'm a cheapskate who doesn't want to pay £250 for a PSP, it's because I care about y'all, y'here? I want to see you all game on in happy times,
