To those who own a PS3

Are you satisfied with your purchase? 

How does the online play feel?

How does PS3 fare as a multimedia station?

Can you burn songs to it?

That's all for now, thanks. :3

1.  Very satisfied mainly because it still works.....

2.  Haven't really played online but I think it really depends on the game.

3.  I love it as a multimedia station.  Only if it could play avi files.  But that should be fixed once I install linux.

4.  If you mean move your songs on to the harddrive then the answer is yes.  It doesn't let you stream easily from your PC.  But I dont think the 360 lets you copy mp3s onto your 360 harddrive so its a toss up in this area.  I prefer to store my songs on the actual device others may prefer to stream it from their pc.  Depending which you prefer determines which is better.

Ah. Also, does it have SD Card Compatibility?Viewtiful_Joker

Thanks, this pretty much leads me to the conclusion of purchasing the PS in addition to my current Wii.

Thanks all! :D 

I didn't pay for mine so I'm very happy with my purchase. Do I think it is worth AUD$999? No.
Online feels very limited. I have become use to Microsofts Xbox Live. The PS3 has nothing like this.
The machine plays DVDs, Blu-ray, etc. I have not found a way to stream media to it from my computer. So it fails pretty badly for multimedia.
I don't know what you mean by can you "burn" songs to it.guyhunter

1) Yes.

2) Fine enough. Only tried with Resistance. And, frankly, I didn't much like RFOM. JMO.

3) Excellent. It's rated the best sub-$1000 BD player on the market by AVS Forum regulars. For HD Movies, the PS3 is simply a wonderful device.

4) Haven't tried. Sorry.

I've come across at least three ways to stream media from my computer to the PS3, and by 'burn' they mean rip.  Not to mention free online is better than xbox's live.zenith_04

the 60 gb yes.

guyhunter I think the problem... litcarthoume

The lack of easy streaming to a PS3 is an issue for me I'd like to do this. Now I used Linux as my primary operating system from 1994 to 2002 and I could install Linux and start streaming media if I wished, but I would like a nice simple way to do this.guyhunter

Yeah. I wouldn't want to boot linux just to stream music to the PS3. There's got to be a better solution. BTW: I'm also a convert to the Mac after having run Linux since the early nineties. Ran BSD/386 before that. (And before that I ran or supported Venix on a PDP-11, SunOS, Irix, Digital UNIX, blah blah blah at various jobs). It's nice that PPC linux distros were ready for the PS3, especially with Cell dev tools to make use of those SPUs. But the lack of hardware accelerated video really blows. When I boot up, I usually stick to console mode because X11 on the thing is so slow.

BTW: I've also got a 360 too, and it's got a lot of great games going for it. I'll be keeping both systems. Heh. :)

How does the online play feel? (have to get more games to get a well rounded anwser)

How does PS3 fare as a multimedia station? I think it's great, everything I've hoped for since I first heard about it's features.

Can you burn songs to it? Oui oui

All I have to start doing now is build up a library for my PS3.
