As Expected: Sony announce digital TV tuner for PlayStation 3

Back on August 1st we reported that the Sony PS3 was getting a TV tuner, well as expected Sony have announced at the Leipzig Games Convention that the Playstation 3 will be getting the digital TV Tuner which Sony are calling PlayTV. This great new device will give the Playstation the ability to record high-definition TV broadcasts direct to their hard drive, and these recordings can also be transferred onto a PSP as well.

But Sony have not finished there as they have announced yet another new service called Go, this is for PSP owners which is a new video download service where you can purchase then download a movie direct to their PSP.

The new PlayTV for the PS3 will be ready in the first part of 2008 for many places in Europe like France, Germany, Spain, and the U.K.
