AOL Broadband has targeted the gaming market, with a new offer of a free Playstation 3 (PS3) games console for customers signing up to its wireless broadband service.

As well as the console itself, the Free PS3 Entertainment Package includes a wireless Sixaxis controller, a free copy of the latest installment of the evergreen platformer Ratchet & Clank: The Tools of Destruction and the movie Stealth on Blu-Ray Disc.

AOL Broadband's wireless service, meanwhile, promises speeds of up to 8Mbps, a free wireless router, free phone technical and customer support, a subscription to AOL Talk Pay As You Go and no connection charge.

The offer is available from Carphone Warehouse, with the pay as you go phone calls package priced £19.99.

Meanwhile, the AOL Talk Evenings and Weekends option is available at £22.49 and the AOL Talk Unlimited offer is £24.99.

The Playstation 3 deal runs concurrently with an alternative offer of a free Dell Inspiron 1520 Notebook.
