Anyone have any experience with NFL Sunday Ticket through the Playstation Store? Is it basically like watching the games online in terms of quality? TIA

I was curious about this too, so I did a Google search! And here's what I got...

quote:

Sony announced today that NFL Sunday Ticket will be available on the PlayStation 3 this season, bringing the only method of viewing all NFL games to a video game console for the first time.

The price of adoption isn't cheap: New customers who aren't already using DirecTV will have to pay $339.95 for the privilege of streaming a whole season of games. Existing DirecTV customers have to pay $50 to activate the PS3 connectivity.

Another caveat: this only allows access to out-of-market games, meaning that die-hard local fans (such as myself) will have to watch local broadcasts and regular television for their teams, and hop off the PS3--or, keep the PS3 and TV in a picture-in-picture orientation.

Yes, the games will be in full HD, and Red Zone Channel is included. The $340 is $90 more than the price of the newly price-dropped PS3, but for football junkies, at least this is progress. And, not having to pay any extra for DirecTV service or a satellite dish setup sounds like a plus.

Thanks for the info. $340 is pretty steep, but considering I've been spending about $50 a week at the bar for me and my wife to go watch the games, it might still be worth it.
