At the heart of PS3 is the Cell Broadband Engine, one of the most advanced computer processors in the world, that enables massive floating point calculation, and Blu-ray Disc (BD) drive, providing a High Definition (1080p) next-generation gaming and movie experience in the home, as well as up to 50 GB of data capacity.

Beginning today, the following popular shows from the award-winning cable network are available on the HBO section of PlayStation Store (navigate to the HBO section by selecting TV Shows> Networks> HBO), with more titles and additional seasons to be added each week:

  • New release and Emmy and Golden Globe winning series "True Blood," season two in addition to season one
  • Golden Globe-winning drama series "Big Love," seasons one through three
  • Golden Globe-winning comedy series Entourage," seasons one and two
  • Comedy hit "Eastbound and Down," season one
  • Multiple seasons from HBO signature shows such as "The Sopranos," "Sex and the City," "The Wire," "Rome,""Da Ali G Show," "Curb Your Enthusiasm," and "Flight of the Conchords"

"The HBO library of premium original content is a perfect example of how PS3 has become the most content rich entertainment platform in the living room," said Peter Dille, senior vice president, marketing and PlayStation Network, SCEA. "When you combine the iconic programming from HBO with the existing TV, film, live sports and original programming available on PlayStation Network, our customers have access to the content they want, when they want it, at home or on the go with the PSP."

"We're extremely pleased to offer our premium programming on Sony Computer Entertainment's PS3 system," said Henry McGee, president, HBO Home Entertainment. "This premier gaming system will offer an exciting new way for consumers to purchase HBO's award-winning programming."

"HBO's innovative and popular programming rounds out Sony's premium TV content offering and enables consumers to enjoy an even wider array of award-winning mini-series and episodic content," said Michael Aragon, general manager, Global Digital Video Distribution and Operations for Sony Network Entertainment.
