Hi. I'm interested in buying a PS3 for Christmas, but I'd like to know a few things about them first.

Is theBlu-Ray player in the PS3 a piece of crap? Will I be getting the same quality player if I buy a PS3 versus an actual Blu-Ray player?

Secondly, does the 40GB, 60GB, OR 80GB model come WITH an HDMI cable? I was wondering because I have an HDTV, but it would really suck if I had to pay an additional 80 dollars to play games in true high definition (one of the PS3's obvious strong points).

And lastly, how long is the PS3's warranty?

Thanks a lot!

How about the Gamepro review that gave it a 4.5 out of 5

Also Nintendo Power reviewed it and I think they gave it a 7.5 out of 10

Those are pretty good reviews so far

Gamepro's review was terrible. If you read the written part, you'd understand it's a terribly written review. In fact, it's mostly negative, which is surprising since they gave it a 90% score... And as for Nintendo Power, well, they generally rate HIGH, so the points of that review should be scaled down.

I beg to differ, my friend, I am a frewuent subscriber to Nintendo Power, and can assure you that, surprisingly, a majority of the game they review recieve crap reviews and low scores. Though 7.5/10 isn't exactly a good score. Its really a win or loss situation.
