Video Game Reviews of PS3 Blu-Link Universal Remote Control

Customer Review: The Best Option Out There
Summary: 4 Stars

I've been looking for a single remote to control all my home entertainment equipment and my PS3, but didn't want to shell out the money for the overpriced Logitech Harmony remotes, let alone for the extra adapter that's necessary to make them support the PS3. If you're in the same boat, this is your solution!

Aside from controlling the PS3, this remote supports my Toshiba 40RV52R HDTV, Sony HT-SS2300 Surround Sound System, and DirecTV HR23 DVR (be aware that you'll need Satellite Code 3044 for the HR23, not one of the DVR codes) perfectly. The HDTV and DVR setup were as easy as plugging in a 4-digit code that was contained in the booklet for full functionality. A 4-digit code added most of the necessary functionality for my Surround Sound System, and about a minute spent with the Learning Feature allowed me to change the input for the Surround Sound receiver. Setting the surround system as the volume master rather than the TV was a snap, as well.

The only reason I didn't give this product 5 stars was because of the size of the buttons. I don't have huge hands by any means, so the size of most of the buttons wasn't an issue. However, the size of the PS3 controller buttons (Square, X, Triangle, Circle) and the color-coded buttons at the bottom (used with the DVR) are tiny, even for me. The color buttons, being closely located together, are especially hard to access. There seems to be space enough in the layout of the controller to give these buttons a bit more size, too. I don't see why they were made so small, but it's a minor issue when compared to the benefits of this product.

The lack of macro learning means that each device has to be turned off individually, but that's not a huge deal to me, either.

Overall, this is an excellent remote! For all you PS3 owners who want the convenience of using one remote for ALL of your home theater devices, without the high price tag, this is the product for you!
