Voted cold, its a pig in a poke tbh.
But he means a proper stand alone Blu-ray player with all the bells and whistles that a PS3 doesnt have. Not a trojan horse console that major selling point is that it can also play Blu-rays.
And before you start the fanboy nonsense dont bother, I am not interested.
For the purposes of OTHERS...... the PS3 is an awesome blu-ray player, I am by no means a PS3 fanboy.... I've mainly used xbox,, xbox 360.... but really wanted a blu-ray player recently.
The PS3 video quality it really quite impressive and EASILY rivals stand-alone players.... I know this because I also have a SAMSUNG BD-P1500 blu-ray player and the PS3 blatantly outshines it - the samsung is a great player but there is artefacts and noise on the picture.... the PS3 has none of these.
Here is my PS3 on my Projector:
Point being, its not uncommon to think that a game console or other "non-dedicated blu ray" device would be any good, but the PS3 really proves it is.... whether it was a trojan for blu-ray or whatever is irrelevant to to its video quality.
