Playastation 3... well... what can it do?
That's right... it only does everything.
Now it does everything plus 1, study Japanese!
If you have internet, then you can sign up for the Japanese Playstation Netowrk and download a lot of demos in Japanese. There is also something called "Playstation Home"

It is a MMO that Playstation has created and you can interact with people in Japan on a daily basis. It also has a lot of things that coincide with the Japanese culture. This is probably more for people who are more advanced in Japanese, but I think anyone who is more advanced should do this because I've learned so many new words that I constantly aply over and over. You can also download videos for games and movies in Japanese. This also allows you to keep up with current Japanese culture. I have also had many oppurtunities to talk to native speakers about grammer and when to use certain things I wasn't 100% sure about when I should use.
The Platstation 3 is reigon free, so you can play Japanese games without having a Japanese Playstation 3.
You should definitly use the Playstation 3 to study Japanese!
The only downside to this is that there is barely any ふりがな (furigana) (the Japanese Alphabet written above Kanji)
