As you’re no doubt well aware, Saturday saw the launch of the PS3 to the Japanese market. Now the PS3 is actually out there we thought we’d share with you some thoughts of what the first users have to say:
First up is Japanese gamer Teruma Naito from Oda City, who was one of the lucky few to bag a PlayStation 3. The BBC got hold of him for his impressions of launch day and his early experiences with the console. See full article.
Second up, is Tokyo-based Dirk Benedict’s letter to gaming site www.kotaku.com. This interesting take covers the launch of the PS3 not only from the perspective of an avid gamer, but someone looking in on the wider cultural implications within the hysteria. See full article.
I’ve heard really good news about BD playback. Someone compared the Samsung BD player and the PS3 head to head, and the PS3 takes the lead in sharpness and quality… This means that the PS3 does come out on top as a great Blu-Ray player, for less money, which is key to installing a huge user-base. Only a few days to go… !!

I think the ps3 is a good blueray player. Fuck the X360..and nintendo Wii does not even have a dvd player in it. Lame.

I was completely amazed that the Wii sold out yesterday.
From what I can tell, people who are obsessed with Nintendo go on the internet and try all they can to say the Wii is the best, but people with PS2/PS3s are too busy playing games.
I played Excite Truck, and it’s one of the crappiest games I have ever played.
