Talk about a huge score for the PlayStation 3.

Sony has announced a deal with satellite TV provider DirecTV to bring the subscription service NFL Sunday Ticket to PS3 consoles.

The package includes access to up to 14 out-of-market football games every Sunday -- all in full HD -- and DirecTV's Red Zone Channel.

Sunday Ticket will cost DirecTV subscribers an extra $50, while the cost for non-subscribers is $339.95.

The NFL deal sets up PS3 as a significant sports hub. Sony offers similar services for pro baseball and hockey in the form of MLB.TV and the NHL GameCenter.

If I read correctly, the $50 for current customers is only for those thst already have thr sunday ticket package, not all directv customers

The link isn't working. And why would I pay $50 for something I already have? That doesn't make any sense.

So if I have a PS3 it will cost me $340 since I have Comcast? Sounds kind of steep to me.

Reads to me like you only pay $50 if you already have DTV, doesn't matter if you have Sunday Ticket or not. If true, continues to prove that DTV doesn't care how much $$ they get out of you for Sunday Ticket subscriptions, they just want your monthly/yearly business.

Basically, the PS3 is now part of the "Ticket to Go", along with watching on your computer, iPad, etc.

It will be interesting to see what the quality is like.

I hope this isn't a ploy to expand its availability so directv can keep exclusive rights to it.

Sunday ticket needs to be available from as many providers willing to provide it.
