Sony has put a price to its PlayStation TV and confirmed it will come to Blighty this autumn.

We reported recently how Amazon US was taking preorders and had the set down for a 31 December launch.

The Sony PlayStation television will cost £499 and comes with two sets of 3D glasses, as well as a bundled game. ®

and the same one at home, that 'im looking after for them :)'

even 32" in a lounge seems small. i have a 42" in the lounge and now it feels small too!
