Advantages: For all media types - Graphics 2nd to none - Constantly upgrading itself. Disadvantages: Very adictive, Limited Games (at the moment)
Hi all,
Please bare in mind this is my 1st ever review so be gentle ;)
Firstly I have been a games console user all my life, well most of it. I have owned the Xbox & Xbox 360, Nintendo wii & the might Playstation 3.
I would like to let you know what great value for money this console is.
The Console
Most people I know bear in mind I work in IT support, know all about personal computers, consoles and handheld games devices. The first thing they say is that a PS3 is a multimedia machine as well as a games console. It can store:
* Pics
* Videos
* Music
& much more
Not to mention that the graphics capability on this machine is immense! I personally I have just splashed out on a HD TV mainly for the benefits for playing games or watching movies on my playstation.
If you have ever followed the Elder Scrolls series ...
Advantages: 120gb hardrive, small console Disadvantages: haven't found any yet
When this came out with its 120gb hardrive i just had to buy it, i already had a 40gb playstation 3 which i traded in for the playstaion 3 slim, and have not regretted it.
Its about a third smaller than your average playstation 3 and is supposed to be more energy effiecient.
I like it because the graphics are brilliant when used on a HD ready television with the hdmi cable, but even without the hd television and cable the graphics are still pretty good. It also has blu-ray player capabilities which means not only do you have a games console but a blu-ray player.
It has wi-fi capabilities which is handy because i don't have wire's running everywhere, and the pad is wireless aswell which charges through the system, i would recommend this to any sonyplaystation fan and everyone else! ...
Advantages: internet, music Disadvantages: overheating
.....at last the Sony playstation 3 has arrived after all the time it took to make it over to the united kingdom without any problems however my daughter has just bought the playstation 3 and I?m quite disappointed with it, not just the price we paid for it but the graphics are quite bad as well and she keeps on complaining that its over heating just after 20 minutes of playing with it. I?m quite impressed with the touch sensitive buttons on it but the size of the playstation its gigantic I think in a few years it with be much improved not only in size like the new and improved playstation 2 slim-line but more variety of colours and more gadgets to attach to it. ...

Manufacturer's product description
The heart of the system is the LocationFree Base Station. The process of using the Base Station over the Internet is called NetAV. In the home, the Base Station uses proprietary Sony technology, including an optimized dual-band antenna and custom software, to ensure the best possible wireless performance. When the Base Station is accessed remotely over the Internet a free Dynamic DNS (Domain Name Server) service ensures that periodic changes to a user's global IP never prevent connection to the Base Station. Once a connection is established, user privacy is ensured by a combination of security measures. Industry-standard Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption is bolstered by WiFi Protected Access (WPA), which improves on the authentication and encryption offered by WEP. Its Dynamic VBR technology allows the Base Station to monitor the available bandwidth of the broadband connection and automatically optimize the bit-rate of the AV stream for the best possible picture quality.
