playstation 3 as a blu ray player - any good?

[Tatsujin]

Even I toppled under the pressure and ordered one. Too good of a deal to pass up on now, really, provided you have the funds readily available.

You guys seen the FF12 slim version?

Buy me one tatsujin and ship it to me.

FF13? Yea, it looks pretty cool. And nah, I don't really want it. If you do get a PS3 from Japan it'll work just like the one over here. All PS3 games are region-free, and the Blu-rays are locked to Region A which is US/Canda and Japan! Pretty damn awesome. Now, if we can get Region Free so Europe can join us. Why do they always exclude Europe? =[

[Klocknov]

Money, that is why Tatsu.

I'm region B so it wouldn't work anyway. I'm so tempted to buy the slim ps3 when I have the money, just gotta find a good home to my current ps3.

There is always a sibling or friend.  Sell it for $150 and you are 1/2 way there to the slim ^_^

Can a PS3 from either Japan or US work in Europe? Or would it conflict with the wattage or something?

As far as I know,I dare to say that the PS3 is region-free,meaning that you can buy a PS3 in USA,take a game from Japan and play them in Romania(and you can visit me!).

You'd have to buy a converter for the electricity for around 30 bucks, but other than that it would work fine.

Games may be region free but some dvd and blu-rays arnt. And ps1/2 games have region codes as well but that can be changed.

Yeah you're correct, but that wasn't really what he was asking.

Sorry for adding a bit of extra info, I wont do it again....

[bloody000]

Uh doesn't the PS3 have a universal PSU?
And if it doesn't, a transformer/converter that can supply 200-300W of power is NOT cheap.

[fohfoh]

Umm... don't be stupid and just buy a power cable from your region? There should be no problems after that?

I mean, seriously. If I cannot use a DS charger from North America in Hong Kong, but can use the European one there... Then buying a PS3 power cable in Europe... should work, no?

Now all you need is a logitech Harmony Remote with PS3 interface, and you'd be set for an amazing HT experiance

you could just use the PS controller, though after 5 years of play stations i still don't know what button does what when watching movies.

So true

I think X brings up the menu of buttons, Select is pause i think

I do very much like the ps3 controllers, wireless, no batteries and doesn't weigh a ton. Though I did drop mine and now I have to drop it before I play otherwise it continueously moves down the menus.

a friend of mine already said that i should buy a remote control where can handle everything with it.. i guess the harmony remote thing does that. .....
