Cool


FINALLY, details of the price of the PS3 in the UK. The price is pretty good in comparison terms to US Dollars and Euros.
I am definitely going to be getting the 60GB version though. Afterall, for only an extra er £64 I think, I'll be able to get the 'full' version of the PS3 console that was originally shown way back at E3 2005 (barring a slight few changes like only one HDMI port instead of two, not much change though).
Pity about losing the Dual Shock capabilities of the controller, but if it was interferring with the Motion Sensors then I guess it makes sense. I hope they make a Wireless DualShock3 pad that can be used instead of, or even in accompaniment with, the new Motion Sensor pad e.g. for games that could incorporate both technologies and then you, the user, would decide how you wanted to play the game, be it with the 'new' Motion Sensors or the 'old' Dual Shock.

Also, a quick note about the Sony Online Service. I really hope they get it right first time, I'm sure they will, but they need to so that we can be playing fantastic PS3 games online porperly like the " we-must-not-mention 'other' online service ". Also, with Sony possibly allowing the likes of EA to manage their own online services with connectivity via the Sony severs, we could, theoretically, play, for example, FIFA2007 online on the PS3 against WII and X360 owners as well as PS3 owners. That way, with some games, it wouldn't matter which console you owned.

Long Live the Playstation series!!!!!
