Thanks for the info and pics!! Nice to see that someone is having fun with it and that it seems to rock. Still a bit too pricey for me though...

Very impressive piece of kit guess they ditched the old plastic look, matches the psp now. That bootup OS looks identical to the firmware used for the psp, but thats no surprise. Shame the controller is the same old design.

Wow!!! Can't wait to here about all the new features and stuff once you get to start fooling around with your new "baby". ... Guess it's time to buy a new HDTV eh! ;o)

nice danny, i envy u right now, but hey, all i got to do is wait till next march. does anyone know the american release date?

releases November 19 in U.s. and Canada. Going to be just as impossible to get over here as it was in japan though !

Sweet,nice buy Danny. It's great to see Sony didn't change so much the controller design and that you can easily change the HD. Keep us imformed Danny.

Ooh! So shiny! Love how the style of the controller which hasn't changed.

Jammy bugger! The Xbox 360 has been doing all those shiny online things you speak of for nearly a year now. Too bad its not doing too good in Japan. Its a much better console than people give it credit for. Have fun with your new toy! I trust you got the gundam game?

Groovesome pics of the PS3. And you've got a new MacBook? Will we be seeing a review of that one too?

Hmm....I wonder if the online play will even reach singapore. Sony doesnt exactly focus on the market outside of Japan & US I guess.

WOW... Soooo SHINY!!! Now i want it even more....

GOsh!!!.... you have got the the coolest things out there at this moment!!! for the PS3.....i will wait til the price go down... for the mac book pro....gosh...i just got my core duo macbook pro around month ago...and now, they release the core duo 2..with the same price...gosh gosh gosh gosh...... Danny you are the man! tell us more about your new mac !!

Lucky! I'm waiting for a few months on it, still have a backlog of PS2 games to finish and keep me occupied. Of course, if I actually see one I'll probably buy it. :)

I azm really happy that u got u Macbook Pro, now you will understand what i was talking about the 4giga of craps (garbage, idvd, iphoto)

Wow, PS3 rocks! Great pics. Your PS3 came with HDMI cable? I thought it was sold separately.

Congrats on the purchase Danny and you said it came with a HDMI cable? :O

As another commenter had said, a year ago the Xbox 360 was doing all the online stuff PS3 is doing now, plus the 360's online infrastructure is more robust. I'm guessing you don't have a 360 so you didn't know that, not that I can't blame you seeing how you're in Japan.

hm... the ps3's interface looks alot like the psps, perhaps ill get the ps3... but nice pics danny!

Woo, Damm coolz, I wish I could own one now, haha but damm poor student!!! need to start working and saving, meanwhile I'll toy with PS2 till it's limit. Everything is just so great! and enjoy, remember to update us with more "BAD" news !!!

Congradulations on your PS3! I would love to own one, and I can afford one, however I am waiting for the price ultimatly come down, because I am not paying $599.99 USD (roughly 70,500 JPY) for it. I'm sure the graphics are superb, but the price and the hype are way to big right now. Hopefully in another year as well, all the kinks/bugs associated with console launches will be worked out. I look forward to your Wii review; this is one I will be hunting down from November 19th to Christmas. At $250 USD, that is practically a steal, and I am looking forward to how Nintendo wants to change how games are played (I love Nintendo). Thanks for the coverage!

Congratulation Danny, PS3 is a great peace of technology with amazing games that will defiantly add some more enjoyment to life. Congrats, I kind of wish I could get one, but too expensive and now space for it lol need bigger place to live in lol heheheh ok I'm waiting with anticipation for some videos of you gaming online.

Nice piece of electronic you got there Danny. Though I'm not a big gamer, I'd probably get one too. Although, it is expensive for a gaming console, a PS3 is relatively cheap if you considering that a set top Blue-ray player costs a few hundreds of dollars more, and the PS3 can do much more than play HD movies. It would be great with my 50" LCD HDTV [drool].

Nice. Looks pretty good and I hope you have fun playing with it. But I'll probably hold off a few months before getting one when it gets released in Australia.

Sexy! oh and the figures looks nice too. ^^ Although I'll probably hold out a bit more til the price is a wee bit more friendly on the wallet. still I have to admit, after seeing those pictures your posted, I'm sorely tempted to order one for myself now. ^^

Ah. it looks great! I'll probably wait till a year or so before getting it. :P Only thing is, it's 7KG :/ Ah well, heavy machine with impressive specs :)

Wow I was expecting your review to be something like this: "I got it and pluged it in, and without a moments hesitation the bloody thing sploded!! oO" But hey if its all in working order then I suppose thats better then I anticipated. You havent encountered any bugs or anything?

Holy crap! I just noticed that Sandrum posted! oO I know some people think thats not a big deal but that guy can seriously model a 3D Gundam! Yo Sandrum, im the same Chopper Dave from DeviantART! :P sorry for the off topic, AND double post T.T

PS3 is way to expensive for me right now. If I do decide to get one of the new consoles itll prob be the 360 because halo 2 is the only game I really play. My second choice would be a wii because of zelda. But I dont think I'll ever get a PS3 unless all my friends are like "you gotta get this for (blah) games"

The PS3 is going to be too expensive for most to afford on release here in the UK. I'm gutted because I can't afford one and I really wanted to play MGS4 as soon as it came out :( Just like the other playstation consoles, its just a matter of time before manufacturing becomes cheaper, and the price of the console drops.

Omg ! Danny, you drugging me...Too bad i'm low of budget, still need to wait for another half or one year before i can get a PS3 on hand...ahhh

wow, the machine is great!! I hope you have fun with it!! Im gonna have to wait for a while before I get mine!! Great review Danny =)

Man.. you got cool stuff like i got bills Keep us updated on the lowdown on the PS3 man Good looking out

Used to indulge quite alot in online games, but not anymore, it can be rather taxing, tiring and the ping from my country can never fight with those from the US. The PS3 design looks pretty slick and rather un-Sonyish

I really wait for your Nintendo Wii photo review ! I think it would be my next console (before a PS3), cause it should really fun to play with the wiimote. PS3 is a bit expensive, and I'm just interessed for the moment by the gundam game, target in sight !

Sounds interesting, Danny, but I'm not getting too excited as I'm an Xbox boy through and through ;) By the way, is your Ridge Racer footage from an on-line game or was that the off-line version? Just seems a little 'clean' if you get my meaning....no jostling or bumping each other.

Dan your the man PS3 all the way i just can't wait till it comes out in USA 11/17/2006 so lucky u.... lol

very delicious looking pics. ^^ i'd like to hear some more info on the online aspect of the ps3. would it be as awsome as xbox live? >.>

Geez...between the PS3 and your MacBook Pro, your wallet is probably just a black hole now. Not to mention that you're still getting a Wii...you must be loaded.

The hundreds of people waiting in line must want to gut your heart out right now. lol

Doc in Kansas, Will update as soon I get the chance to play more. Lunch in London, That was the demo running^^; Chopper Dave, So far so good. IceCoolBeer, Yes but the CSS looks very broken. Gnome and Andrew, I have not been taking any illegal substances but I think I was hallucination re the cable. Im sure I saw one! But alas I was wrong - no HDMI cable ToT Zip and Leo, Macbok Pro review soon!

danny, with that macpro core2 and the ps3, the technophiles reading your site are probably either 1.) really really want to smack you now out of envy. 2.) really really pity your wallet. 3.) do both. *LOL*

That's awesome, Danny. RR7 looks more insane than it usually does.

Damn danny thats a hotbuttered machine u got there can u get me one? :P(yeah right -.-) well enjoy the ps3 ill get one of those as soon it comes to america :D c ya danny

Hi Danny. Found this site on the net. It's about the interior of the PS3. http://www.play3-live.com/news-ps3/2438/la-ps3-les-tripes-a-l-air.html

You are so lucky danny! I'll have to wait until sometime next year to get mines (-_-)

So sexy.... Can't wait til March :). Gah, In Japan it cost something like 500 USD and here in Sweden it's 650 and the releasedate isn't even set yet either, Feel sorry for us in Europe please :P

That sure looks shiny. Really makes the ps2 look quite dated...

ah awsomeness, ps3 looks so clean. i even bought a new samsung plasma 42inch to go with my ps3 when i get it. love the site btw, my first post too. ^.^

Congrats on your purchase for getting a PS3, Hopefully sony will get enough units out by early 2007, cause right now prices are jacked up. Definitely getting one before DMC4 & MGS4 comes out... On another note will you be installing WinXP on your Core Duo Mac Book? I am curious how its done and if you intend to do it will you write a review about the experience of a dual-boot system? Thanks. Oh n Enjoy the games on your PS3 ^^

Look cool. Unfortunately, [and a lot of people are gonna burn me for this] i still play the Xbox. and hopefully the 360 someday.

Hello Danny!! Mate its been ages!! haven't been able to get around checking your blog in ages! but i had to see if you got your hands on a PS3!! and congradz!!! its amazing isn't it?

Plasma T.V? I heard that playing games on a plasma t.v really shortens its life but since you're smarter than me i guess you know what you're doing! You're so lucky that you were able to get one i pre-ordered it at a Sont store! I'm number 66 on the list but they only had 5 instock the first day it came out. So i was pretty disappointed. Just wondering, what games did you get?
