Quick review

The good
Graphics, Blu-ray player, memory card reader, quiet compared to the Xbox 360
The bad
Games aren't as innovative as the Nintendo offering, HDMI setup annoying
Verdict
A very impressive machine, if only the games and the movie selection were at the same level as the console this would be a no brainer. Hopefully for UK readers, by the time the console launches here both issues will be resolved
