Sony Playstation 3 Blu-ray DVD Remote Review - Games
Comments:
If you do a lot of movie watching with your PS3, the Sony PlayStation 3 Blu-ray DVD Remote is a nice luxury, but it's not a must-have accessory for the PS3.
If you do a lot of movie watching with your PS3, the Sony PlayStation 3 Blu-ray DVD Remote is a nice luxury, but it's not a must-have accessory for the PS3.
QuickTake:
Pros: An attractively styled Bluetooth remote, Generally well thought out button layout and design, Very responsive, Faces no line-of-sight issues because it uses Bluetooth radio, not IR (infrared)
Cons: No backlighting, Can't control any of your other A/V components, Not a huge upgrade over the functionality offered by the PS3's standard controller.

So the PlayStation 3 is finally here - and it's not exactly flying off the shelves either. Of course, at £425 it was probably never going to, but is it worth all that money? We assess the PS3's credentials as both a games console and Blu-ray player...
Review Verdict: A better Blu-ray player than Samsung's, although hi-def games look better on the Xbox 360
