Will buy this particular PS3 when they release the God Of War 3 - the fall/death of Olympus [the franchise has been getting bigger and better :-) ] ... that should get some gamers across the world psyched up to buy the PS3...

Supposedly, it will be the game that will truly show the world the superiority of what a Sony PS3 can do in terms of the definition of HD.

After that - I wonder if this PS3 can act as a DVR to record programs on avi or otherwise format from digital channels ?

It does come with a 120 Gb hardisk doesnt it ?
