Crackle Video Streaming Service Heads to PlayStation 3 for Free

Well I just spent the last few hours watching movies through this, And I must say I LOVE it.

Ever since my broken bluray drive caused me to not be able to use netflix, I have been looking for alternative uses for my PS3. And thanks to this, I now have one.

The video quality, Speed, Both are wonderful, And the movies that are here right from the start is a pretty damn good selection. And to top it off, I only see ONE 30 second advertisement for every hour of playing videos.

I can really say... I love this... It even seems to preform better than netflix did (Better than disc and standard pkg install)

Only thing that i want to see fixed, is every 10 mins it stops playing video for a moment to load an advertisement (But for some reason only loads one advertisement every hour, so it just kind of sits there on a blank screen for 10 seconds every 10 mins)

But, its a work in progress, and an amazing one at that.

I suggest everyone give this a shot, theres some good movies in here to pick from!

Edit: Okay guys, You can view it in your computer browser by this link: http://www.crackle.com/ps3/ShowGuide.aspx?pid=82&usePageCookie=false&skin=HD

Why not try it via your pc to see if it works downunder, just tried it in the uk and i can watch films so i assume it will work on my ps3.

Once you open the Internet browser and you get to the standard ps3 home page you will see crackle. just press x on it and it will take you to the site. It has some decent movies, not up to the highest standards yet but it is free.

Where do I go to try this out ? I went to the ps3 browser but, It's not there. I'm using a us account.

Interesting, but I am sticking to my Netflix instant watch. I can't even fathom how buggy this is going to be on release, it took Netflix years to refine the instant watch service, and since this service is free it's likely going to be a disaster. Plus it sounds like the movie selection will be pretty poor. I have a hard enough time finding decent movies I haven't seen or want to see on NF instant as it is, and they have a HUGE selection.
