i'm looking into getting one (well this one) http://www.sony.co.uk/product/blu-ray-disc-player/bdp-s350#pageType=TechnicalSpecsbut i've found it for £174 inc delivery. I have been toying with getting a PS3 (but it's not multi region) but we have just brought a Wii so i've got that for my games console etc but was wondering if others know of any better/alternative Blue-Ray players for the money?! |

that's something i've thought of too but am still only running a crappy old 7900gt and i also don't think the GF would allow it as the if someone wanted to use the comp whilst i'm watching the footy they couldn't.

it'll also sync with my Bravia too which is good. Keeping the same brand etc i'm selling my Denon DVD player once i get it if anyone is interested. Model Number 1710 or 1910. not at home so can't confirm |

I'm still yet to see a film in blu-ray. Maybe one day I'll be able to replace my tv, ps2 and dvd player and then catch up with everybody else!

i was in Currys at the weekend and they had a blue-ray film showing on one screen and normal tv on another and i could finally show my Mrs the difference. I'm still yet to see a film in blu-ray. Maybe one day I'll be able to replace my tv, ps2 and dvd player and then catch up with everybody else!
from what i have seen it is just quality all the way. Yet to see it on my new tv but i can't wait to get a player and try it out. Can't decide what my first Blue-Ray film to buy and watch will be though. |

My PS3 didn't turn up today so I'm yet to sample the delights of Blu-Ray.  |

It's a fucking cartoon, how disappointing. Still fun on Blu-Ray though, quite ridiculous graphics.
