- Bought it for Blu-Ray, got my game on too...
I used to be a hardcore gamer back in the day starting with CelecoVision, NES, etc, etc.Played tons of games, and havent owned a game system in two years mainly to improve my life and do other things.
Bought this for BluRay only, and was blown away by the picture and sound!Connected this to a 40'-LCD with HDMI and to my stereo, subscribed to NetFlix and it is better than a theater (not just because my sofa isnt all sticky).

for storage
Rating: - The best blu-ray player and oh yeah it plays games too
The concensus is that this is the way to go when you decide to upgrade to blu-ray DVD's.Many people don't even bother playing games with it.
