@Iain, Dave

I got a PS3 for £298, I previously posted here that when they hit £298 I would buy one, it was my price point. I did , and i was lacking in any real christmas need.

I have tested some games and indeed Resistance Fall of Man, is impressive, its one of the few.

I have no idea why blu ray is £10 more as its all upscaling technology on the blu ray player anyway?

As for price points, and games etc...

Now is a good time to point out that music/video etc has lost value, and we dont value it any more, wanna see my MP3 collection?

So why not have a set of replaceable disc drives for PS3, download all games at a fraction of the price and be done with it.

Im off on a tangent here.....

Help!

PS3 I have one for crimbo

I bought a PS3 for £298 and have tested a few game demos, they are almost like PC games only no mouse/keyboard is frustrating on FPS Titles.

The platforms are good, but again the whole aim shoot thing with the PS3 controller is badly flawed.

I like MotorStorm as its a good game, heavenly sword, well its another jump around and slash, conan (see heavenly sword), Need for Speed Series (All the same). PES (Slow and unresponsive).

ratchet and Clank is an unbelieveably detailed game, and is jaw droppingly well scripted, worth playing.

Therefore what the PS3 needs are some decent games and a bit cheaper too, and at close to £40 to £50 a game nobody is going to 'test the water'.

£30 should be the price point the same as a PC game.

Aston Martin to build new model abroad

hans
Boffin

Not sport old chap

In top gear and other prgrammes the Aston always got the old 'I like this' due to its heritage and its breeding, the engine signed, the leather polished by craftsmen in goold old blighty and the overall feeling of quality.

So their just going to offshore 93 years worth of skill and it wil all work?

I can see two types of Aston in the secondhand market

A) Built in Britain (£60k)

B) Built in turkey (£6k)

The aston lived by its brand, and so shall it die, what a shame its now just going to be a mondeo without a blue badge.

ARGH!!!!!!!!

My time is expensive, if you answer the phone in 1 minute and can hold a conversation with a life form higher than a daffodil then I will think about it.

BT did not, I went with SKY, nice lady answered phone straight away, and gave me a £0 installation.

BT should move to another country, where their poor service and supposed low cost will be appreciated, and its NOT the UK

Dear Sceptic

Lets keep this on track...

Somewhere in china something dodgy happened that is ok by the rest of china, the only loosers are Google and Microsoft.

A bit like setting up MP3 hosting in the ukraine, dont see anyone complaining about that.

At the end of the day someone somewhere in China realised that China is not bound by the laws of these 'Capatilist Superpowers' and changed the rules, good on em.

On a serious note what do you think anyone (Not just google and microsoft) will learn from this if anything?

And do they care, I know it does not affect me and like global warming a toss I give not
