There have been a lot of problems with Blu-Ray. The first players lacked network connections, and didn't have local storage, but the latest player solves both those problems, adding a full 1GB of storage and a wired Ethernet port.
That means film fans who want the goodness of Blu-Ray, and a truly future-proofed bit of kit can finally avoid parking a PS3 under the TV. Hallelujah, praise be to Sony!

Want to experience blazing-fast performance and stunning visuals? Upgrade your PC with the discounted ZOTAC RTX 4080 SUPER.
High demand for the RTX 40 series, especially the RTX 4060 Ti, sees price hikes according to recent reports - even with the 50 series coming.
You'd have to be a complete idiot to buy a 4060Ti when the AMD 7700XT and 7800XT exist.
The first PlayStation is home to an array of iconic video games that went on to define the sheer significance of this console.
I think from a historical perspective I would change Spyro for Grand Turismo. It's the franchise that made the PS1 look like an absolute unit. Other than that, I can't argue with the rest when it comes to games that defined the PS1.
And to be honest, there should be space for Tekken 3, Wipepout and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater in order to round out the PS1 identity as the machine to own at the time.
With Tomb Raider 2, Silent Hill, Symphony of the Night, Tenchu, and Soul Reaver as backup contenders.
Yeah but the PS3 is cheaper, still. So for all you out there, if you are still interested in buying a blu-ray player since the war is officially over, You might wanna still go with the PS3 since you can get it for $399.
it's the value that you get from that price. with PS3, you play games, movies and online for only $ 399.
to that, that the PS3 is also upgradable and you have a better deal yet.
BTW I bought a 40" 1080P Sony Bravia this weekend and I have to admit Blu-ray looks f@$king fantastic.
It's called tech evolution. However, the ps3 will always be the best value for your dollar because it's a game player as well. It's also a internet browser. And with PlayTV being released soon, it'll be a DVR-esque machine as well.
Id still take a PS3, but thats probably because i use it for games first.
Still, nice timing, there's plenty of people with cash just waiting to usher in the HD era.
