Does anyone use their PS3 for internet?

[Joe.]

Or is it just me? I'm using it for this and i was wondering if anyone else does. I have no idea why but my PS3 runs better than my PC. Its kind of ironic since PC's are made to go on the web.

 

[rockingnic]

I use my laptop for the internet. My PS3 is a gaming machine!

 

[Tech Team FTW!]

Does it matter?
Also this:

Too many Joes.

Must be a rubbish PC the online browser for PS3 is a horrible experience even the flash support is lacking

I have, but that was when I first got it and it was a novelty, so I tried it out. It doesn't work as well as my PC though, so I only use it as a last resort.

I'd assume a PC browser would outperform it in all possible manners.

Is the PS3 one better than the Dreamcast one?

 

[Redlac]

I use mine occasionally. It's not the best web browser, but it's good for some stuff.

 

[Knight Templar]

Well I use a DSI to brows the web sometimes, it's neat and all but not much practical use. I guess the PS3 is several steps up from that, but still not as good as a computer.

 

[Simalacrum]

I use my Laptop... I don't have a keyboard and mouse for my PS3, so, yeah.

 

[Nyan Cat]

*cough* Err... No... *shifty eyes*

 

[DrunkenKitty]

The browser works fine aside from the lack of flash support, but using a controller to browse is ghetto. You can plug a usb keyboard into a PS3, but I'm not sure the browser would work with a mouse.

So no, I don't.

I won a 32 inch HD TV so I just cut a bigger hole in my desk and plugged my PC into it

my PS3 went back to the store.

 

[SmilingKitsune]

Never, it's just way to slow and takes ages to type with a controler, besides, I have my computer right here, not much point in using the PS3.

 

[EeveeElectro]

I didn't even know I could until about a month after I got it.
I showed it to my mum and got on YouTube, then asked her if she wanted to watch a video.
She loves it, because she can watch her favourite music videos on a big screen, thankfully she hasn't worked out how to turn it on yet, so I doubt she'll be using it.

Well my PC is just virus packed, it's only a year old and the whole computer runs slower. I also have a keyboard and mouse for my PS3 so it's almost the same. As someone above me posted though its non-flash programming sucks.

really mine does everything but play flash games.
i dont mind the online browser for PS3
its nothing like a computer but when i need to check something and my laptop is in use i can pop on ps3

 

[cleverlymadeup]

never used the ps3 for that and probly never will, got 2 pcs and a laptop capable of doing just that

 

[NeedAUserName]

Well my computer is literally two steps away from my PS3, and my computer is much easier to type on, so I almost always use the computer (I tried once on the PS3, but quickly reverted to the computer.)
