Congratulations on receiving your compensation. It's obvious you want your PS3. Get your PS3 bundled if possible, you save money in the long run. Second, your HDTV. You want something nice to play it on. I would also recommend instead of just the HDTV, get an LCD HDTV. If you shop around and can buy one still in the store as a display, you'll likely get a discount.....same thing with the HDTV you want though too. Home theater system, what a gaming experience that would be. The roaring thunder of the crowd. Lastly, use EBAY or Craigslist to help save you on cost. Don't pay more than what you would in the store, but if you can save yourself the money, isn't that the goal overall. Get as much quality as you can for as little as you can?

Unfortunately, there are two VERY weak points in your proposed setup - the TV and the sound system.
As they are the fundamental building blocks around which everything else will function, you need the best you can afford. If you get it wrong, you will be bitterly disappointed...
Firstly, don't buy Goodmans. Ever. The sound and picture quality is appalling and the build quality is lousy.
Secondly, a home theatre audio system for £80? My speaker cables cost more than £80. Each.
A speaker system for £80 will sound feeble, tinny and will struggle at anything above moderate listening levels.
If you really want to enjoy your movies and games, you will need to spend at least £250 on a home theatre speaker system
Always remember, "Buy cheap, buy twice".

You should start with the PS3 and then go for other stuff.
