Hi guys ~ ! This is Victoria with a VERY SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT for Crunchyroll users!

BECAUSE YOU DEMANDED IT…. Crunchyroll has launched high-definition 720p streams for its entire library and simulcast lineup on the PlayStation®3!*

Before now, the PS3™ app was only serving up anime in enhanced-definition 480p, but all that has changed and CRUNCHYROLL TAKES SIMULCASTS INTO HIGH DEFINITION ON THE PS3™. Anime fans can now enjoy shows with subtitles within minutes of Japan TV broadcast, including hits like NARUTO SHIPPUDEN, SWORD ART ONLINE, SPACE BROTHERS, and HUNTER X HUNTER in HD!!!

A spectacular announcement like this requires an equally slam-bastic contest ~ !!!

Many of you already know this, but for those of you that don’t, Vampy and I are hosting a VERY SPECIAL CRUNCHYROLL PS3™ GIVEAWAY ~ !!!!!!

The Live Show Promotions - Crunchyroll PS3™ Giveaway
You either have Javascript turned off or an old version of Flash Player.

All of the details are in this very special video. But, the gist is : Make a video showing your love for Crunchyroll, and post a link to it in this thread ~ !!! That means, comment on this Site News post with the link to your youtube video. We will choose one winner on HALLOWEEEEEN NIGHT ~ Spooky !!

You can win a ONE OF A KIND CRUNCHYROLL PS3™ GAMING SYSTEM.

Okay guys, try your best ~ !! AMAZE US!!!

I’m gonna go marathon Kokoro Connect in HD now ~ !!!

*Disclaimer: All shows that already support 720p on the website will be available in HD on the PS3.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

THE WINNER IS ~ !!!!

A CRUNCHY KIND OF LOVE ~ !!!!

These boys, and girl -- went above and beyond ! I mean, look at that CRUNCHYROLL !!!!

Not only was it funny, it was creative, out-there, and shot in public - and that's what we wanted !!!

Congrats, guys !!! Hope you can share this ONE OF a KIND Crunchyroll PS3 <3

Oh yeah!! That's some great news indeed. Lack of HD content was the only thing keeping me from watching CR animes through my PS3. I hope I can get enough bandwidth, since I'm using Wi-Fi on my PS3 :~

Is it actually up now? I just checked and don't see any option for 720p, and the videos don't look any better.

All videos available in HD on the site should already be available in 720p on PS3. There is no option for it since it adaptively switches between 480p and 720p based on your available bandwidth.

Not available in 1080p at this time.

To stream 720p you need a minimum 2.5mbps download speed to your PS3.

im guess that we gatta keep it legal as well and practically pg 13.only think i can think of is to throw myself off a bridge to win this.

i also like how your asking us to do something crazy with a smooth jazz backround

lol, i just thought of something that would make me a creep, though im not: you getting a piece of vampy's DNA from when she nibbled on the ps3.

i just thought up of fun ways to do this, but i can't technically do this legally in my back yard without a warrant from the state.

its nice htat ideas are finally popping into my head.
