    For the last week I was thinking about getting a PS3. Ive read the stickies and many different resources, but I still have some simple questions, Just regarding the ps store and wifi/internet

    1. Is there much lag online?

    2. Generally how much are games to DL from the PS store?

    3. How long does it take to DL a game? (I have 10mb connection)

    4. I have a netgear router below my room, would the ps3 pick up the signal fine?

    (Theres loads of info on the wifi etc but i found it difficult to get specifics so I thought id ask, Im also aware that people are reporting better signals with the ps3 slim)

    thx

    1. Not that I have encountered in 2 years. I live in Japan and play SF with my brother in Ireland and even then it's pretty much lag free.

    2. New "full" PSN only games are usually 15euro. Fat princess/BF1943 is such. Smaller titles can be as little as 3euro mostly 5euro though.

    3. Speeds would be the same as your PC downloads. Though, some people have problems with poorly set up wifi on their PS3.

    4. Yeah, PS3's wireless is strong. It's stronger than the laptop I'm using now.
