correct me if I'm wrong but the PS3 can essentially do what Apple TV does right? (stream wirelessly video content to the television)

From the demo i thought it was pretty retarded.. Bought Formula One instead... This seems like more of a challenging game where it will feel like you accomplished something if you get good at it.. Motorstorm just feels like if you memorize the jumps and shortcuts, you can do well.

No seriously... When it gets to the point where you care more about the graphics than the game.. Maybe you should go to a park or something and look at some flowers... Real life has the best graphics of all

The PS3 1.8 firmware is here, and it adds some cool features. One of the cooler features that you can use today is that it streams media from Windows natively now! Sweet

upconversion of PS1/2 games is kinda shitty. it's higher resolution, but everything is smaller now. no more widescreen, it's letterbox smack in the middle. DVDs look nice tho
