Home, and everything that comes with it.
ability to play all mp4 video, ability to run linux, Blu-Ray, DVD upconverting ability (this works very well)

I also like watching the killzone 2 preview, or mp4 porn on the PS3 in slow motion.
The audio is maintained, and is slowed down. This is incredible for the Killzone preview, and just plain funny for porn.

i've had mine for awhile and just love it more and more, especially since the games i've been waiting for are getting here. R&C, assassin's creed, uncharted, CoD4, i could go on but you know em. definitely the BLU-RAY capabilities as well, my collection has grown to 82 titles now, with ratatouille coming tuesday! dvds do get harder and harder to watch. the free online is also a major plus for me since my online gaming is few and far between, so i would never pay for it, but it's nice to have when i'm in the mood. the built in browser has also become one of my favorite features, i'm using it now! and of course my favorite series of all time is making it's nextgen debut in less than 6 months... MGS4!!!


@makingmusic, hey, you and your XBR4 can just kiss my butt... j/k, nice TV man!

Thanks man.

 Yeah, my Dad's been holding off on buying an HDTV for a couple of years now, despite us both wanting one. "I'll wait until the prices drop," he kept saying. Well, this year, my Mom saw an LSU game on my Uncle's 50" Panny plasma, and she fell in love with it. That basically decided that we'd get an HDTV in some form this year. Of course, my ps3 and Blu-Ray helped persuade my dad a bit too. :P

Anyway, me and my Dad went to Best Buy one day so I could show him all the different types of displays, and about ten minutes into it, he points across the Magnolia room at an XBR4, and goes, "I want that one." I tell him it's expensive as hell, since it's the top LCD on the market. I figured that would change his mind real quick, because he's a real cheapskate, but he simply replied, "So? It's got a great picture, and it's the one I want." I almost shit myself with excitement.

Well, this weekend, Circuit City had the TV for $1500 off, so we went and picked it up as an early Christmas present. :D

I like you Bod, topics like these are few and far-between. The other consoles could make due with this as well.

1. Metal Gear Solid 4. Honestly can't say enough about this game.
2. PSN titles. The one thing I've always liked a lot about Sony is their smaller, "indie" developer support.
3. LittleBigPlanet/Shared Content.
4. Overall quality of machine.
5. Blu-Ray.
6. Plethora of features/media capabilities, even though I rarely use them all.
7. Overall 2008/&Beyond line-up.
8. Simple and efficient interface.

I must say I am in the camp that says upscaled DVD's are too close to blu rays in visual quality. and yes I have a HDTV, 50" 1080i/720p. I have only seen 3-5 blu rays though. Blockbuster online takes forever to send me blu rays so I usually settle on watching the dvd version, but hey the PS3 gets some credit for doing a solid job on upscaling the DVD.

1. GT5 and the Top gear track it has.
2. Free online.
3. Haze because I hope that the 4 player coop is going to bring back some fun.
