The Bluray player on the ps3 is neither cheap or gimmicky , its one of the best players on the market!

These are just a few reviews after doing a google search on reviews on the ps3 Bluray player , you'd be hard pressed to find one that says its rubbish or you'd be better off getting a stand alone player.
