Blu-ray remote is #13?? Why would you buy that? Everybody knows that NOBODY uses a PS3 as a Blu-ray player.

People sure do use their PS3s as Blu-Ray players.

I know I was joking. All the HD DVD people say the PS3 doesn't count because no one is using it for a Blu-ray player... Why would they be selling so many remotes if no one was using it as a Blu-ray player.

If anyone wants to know what games are compatible with the PS3, they are listed on playstation.com. FYI the new update 1.9 had the emulation software already in the update. So even if you already have the 60 gig(which I do), with the new update you will have that emulation software as well.

here's an idea for Toshiba and HD DVD group for counting BD PS3 Players... Instead of counting PS3 sold... Count the remotes! That means ppl are using their PS3 as a BD Player also rather than just gaming consoles

Oh come now. We all know people are being strong armed into buying the Blu-Ray remotes, and that even those who have them do not use them.

I don't think we will see too many bundle packages sent out by Sony, only enough to make its presence felt across the market and gauge consumer reaction to software b/c. A bit like the Elite, but with a game.

I fully expect Sony to remove Motorstorm from the bundle come September 22nd and announce that any leftover bundles will go for $549 and a new unbundled price of $499. Any leftover 60GB will be priced $449, a direct shot at the Elite.

The new bundle is actually a limited edition. I was looking at walmart.com the other night, and saw this bundle. When I enlarged the photo, it actually said it was a limited edition.

Terjyn I knew you were an HD-DVD fanatic! LOL JK

Actually, Shadowmoon makes a very good point. Is there any way we can get sales numbers on the "Blu-ray movie" remotes for the PS3? It would be very interesting to see those numbers. I don't think those HD-DVD folks could say a darn thing about the consumers who bought the remote not watching movies on their PS3.

Now at 121... MoSt seems to be the "it" title for PS3 for now. I remember how GeOW + 360 packages were being sold when GeOW was the hot game for the 360.
