Hi guys,

I already got an xbox360. The next gadget I want to buy is a media player that can play a lot of formats (xbox is rather limited when it comes to video files). I wanted to get something like a popcorn hour or a Dvico. But when I check the price is almost the same like a PS3. I was wondering if PS3 can play movies and display subtitles at the same time without much effort. Most importantly, PS3 is also a BD player and I would like to try MGS4.

Thanks.

PS3 does support mkv files. All you need is a laptop with the software ps3mediaserver. There's a thread here in LYN about this software. Look it up. I use my PS3 for mkv files nowadays and took my WDTV back to my hometown for my dad to watch.
