Aside from the PS3, the game, and a wireless controller, what else comes in the box? I already know that I need to buy a second controller, but do I need to buy any HDMI cables or component cables or anything, or are those included? I've already bought 1 PS3 this week, but it is a present for someone else, so I haven't looked inside the box.
 
Same Spec as 60, but with 20 more g's.

Oh, You can plug an external harddrive in to the usb port, so why not get the 60 and save money.
 
I meant what accessories come in it. Controller, Component cables, etc. Trying to find out if there is any accessory I need to buy in addition that doesn't come in the box, like an HDMI cable
 
I was mainly kidding, although if I was to get a ps3 it would be the 60 gig which I can no longer find in any stores around here. To be honest I have no idea what acc you are missing or would need.

According to BestBuy.com:

This package includes an 80GB PlayStation 3 console, a SIXAXIS wireless controller, the game MotorStorm, an AC power cord, an A/V cable, an Ethernet cable and a USB cable. ... this PlayStation 3 system also features an HDMI connection for high-definition audio and video; Memory Stick, Secure Digital and CompactFlash media card slots; Wi-Fi connectivity for wireless Internet access; and a whopping 80GB hard drive. No matter where your path to excitement leads you, PlayStation 3 will make your destination come alive.

Which means you probably have to buy the HDMI cable separately. Buy the cable and if it already has on in-box, return the one you purchased.
 
And remember, a monster HDMI ($150) cable is no different than a Belkin HDMI ($20) cable.

A PS3 (and other high end HD devices, like new TVs) compensate for the differences you might find between Monster's "gold plating" and other crap they peddle. When the digitial signal comes in, the TV will make the single clean whether it is coming in off a Belkin cable or a Monster cable. Hope the info helps.
 
Thanks for the info, Fluffy. I was actually thinking about that. My TV is this Samsung HL-T5089S, and I wasn't sure if I should have gotten a beefed up HDMI or not (was gonna ask my cousin, since he's a A/V guru). Thanks for the heads up.

I should rephrase what I said a hair, the cables are different in terms of quality, but the end signals (aka the TV image) will be identical.
