I dont think thats quite true mate, its the best in its price category, not the best out of them all, such as the Denon 3800BD (£1599)

The early Sony blu-ray players (standalone not PS3) are pretty slow and prone to freezing, the new Panasonic BD30 is a very good unit for the cash, but if you are in the market for standalone BD player, try and get one with an ethernet port, just makes it easier for software updates which could be quite common when the technology evolves a bit. :thumbs:

However at £250 for a standalone am I right in think I could have a PS3 bundle for not alot more? Would the Standalone be any better a Blue ray player than a PS3?


where are you getting it for 250?


Actually it was £230 from herehttp://www.digitaldirect.co.uk/products_moreinfo3/index.asp?product_id=13810

Would the PS3 be a better player than the one in the link?

There's a samsung one at Currys for £250 at the moment i think?

There was a thread the other day about the quality of the PS3's Blu-ray player, and people were saying it's very good anyway, so for an extra £50 it's worth the PS3 imo
