Welcome to the Rumour mill, VideoGamer.com's run-down of the big rumours currently doing the rounds in the video game industry. Every week they'll hunt down the juiciest stories and give their opinion on how legit they are. So, whether you want the ridiculous or the plausible, read on.

Movies and TV coming to PS3

The Rumour: Downloadable TV shows and full-length movies will be available on the PlayStation Store for the PlayStation 3 this summer.

Verdict: Sony isn't likely to sit back and let Microsoft mop up the downloadable content market. According to the LA Times Sony will offer premium content video this summer, and it makes perfect sense. While Sony is pushing Blu-ray hard as a point of difference to the Xbox 360, the PS3 currently doesn't have an option for the rental market - presumably what the download service would offer.

Plausibility rating: 4/5

1 - Why do people keep treating these movie & tv stories on PS3
like they are new information? Sony already announced plans for that before the system even launched. Was I the only 1 paying attention? They talked about movies, tv shows, & possibly a music store as well. They've got studios, they've got a record label, & they have the Playstation Store. It's just a matter of when it gets done.
