I bought my PS3 on launch day, March 23rd and have had no regrets ever since! It still amazes me even today, and that will only continue, Heavy Rain anyone?

During my 2 weeks of final exams ... I went into Big W and bought a PS3 40GB.

Paid the price, bought FIFA 08 along with it ... went home and played it on a composite connection (lol!!)

Later on, I 'upgraded' to a component connection ... and how HDMI (after buying a new BRAVIA).
