Sony's Powerful Little Thing

Advantages: 8.1MP, Carl Zeiss® 3X Optical Zoom Lens, 3" Touch Screen, Face Detection & 'Touch-it' Autofocus
Disadvantages: None

...The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T70/B digital camera is a powerful little thing. I got this as my old digital camera broke down. I wanted something reliable, cheap, compact and powerful. I think this camera ticked all the right boxes. The Sony digital camera comes in four different colours, black, white, pink and silver. The letter at the end of the model number basically represents what colour it is, 'B' is black. 'W' is white, 'P' is pink and 'S' is silver. The design of the camera is extremely compact for the about of technology it has and has a nice aluminium finish. It looks sleek and can easily slip into your pocket or handbag. The camera has a nice 3 inch touch, widescreen LCD display which replaces the function buttons with very simple on screen icons. The Sony DSC-T70 has many functions; to start with it is a whopping 8.1 mega...

Review of Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T70

Sony is back with a bang!

Advantages: slick piece of hardware, great games, so much to do!
Disadvantages: not cheap!

...Having just recently won a competition to spend a night with the PS3 I figured it would be a smart idea to do a personal review of the console which everyone will be talking about (in the UK) in a few weeks to come. Please bear in mind that I have only had a chance to test this baby out for a few hours and so my review will not be as in-depth as you might expect. First Impressions The PS3 is indeed a slick looking machine, about the size of it's older brother (PS2) it seems as though finally Sony have caught on to the fact that the outer design of the console is as important to a gamer as the leather interior is to a 2006 Aston Martin V8 Vantage. Gone is that ugly block-like design and in comes a smooth surfaced console with curved edges just begging you to caress them. Much like it's predecessor, the PS3 can be placed...

Review of Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3)

A Great System from Sony

Advantages: Nice Classy Design, Great Graphics, and a Good Online
Disadvantages: Small Gamelist Thus Far and Some Games Suffer From Framerate and Graphical Pop-Up Issues

...Sony's Playstation 3 is thier third go around in the Video Game business. My console reviews usually consist of reviews in the following categories Controller, Graphics, Multiplayer/Online, and Game Library. Much like the Xbox 360, i'll also be reviewing the Design of the PS3. The design of the PS3 is the more classy of the three new consoles. The PS3 is a black square system with a curved top. While the design is beautiful, this system is very big, matching the 360 in terms of size. The system also offers Blu-ray but, in my opinion, that should not be the only reason you should be spending $400-500 on this system. The PS3's controller is the classic Playstation controller once again and that shouldn't be a problem for any gamer. The original PS3 controller was the Sixaxis but is now Dualshock 3. For a company that created...

==Sony Have Done It Again!!==

Advantages: the most powerful console on the market, built in blu-ray player, internet capabilities, stylish
Disadvantages: none that i have yet found (owned for nearly 2 years)

...Let me start by saying, that despite the hefty rrp, despite the fact that its 3rd in the console race behind the nintendo wii and xbox 360 respectfully, the playstation 3 is in my honest opinion, the best out of the three without a doubt. When sony designed the playstation 3, it was intended to be a multimedia system that you could proudly place under your tv that dosn't look like it's ment to be in your teenagers bedroom and that they've comendeered your lcd tv because they can see more than they can on the portable in their room. i digress, they point i am trying to make is that this machine is as beautifull as it is powerful, and as practical as it is pricey (original rrp was £425) The playstation 3 is not just the best console (graphically nothing compares) it is also one of the best blu-ray players on the market and those...

Gift and memories-Sony style

Advantages: Read the review
Disadvantages: Price and price

...the dimension is 9 inch x 6.5 inch x 5.5 inch. It has been provided with a rotating kick stand making the frame to be mounted vertically or horizontally, the noticrable drawback being that it does not come out with a fixture to be nounted on the wall. The menu, the power switch, navigation buttons are all there, but the addition of the remote has made it much more comfortable to use. Slots for CompactFlash, SDHC/MMC/xD and Pro/Duo memory stickes are provided on the back and are easily accessible. The A/C adapter with mini USB is placed directly opposite to these slots. Images files can be directly coped from the computer add to that its capability of remotely copying and resizing selected images to its own internal memory just by a dab on a button. It optimizes at 500 images independent of size, this is possible because even though the Sony DPF D...

Review of Sony DPF-D80

Have Sony rolled in the next gen with a bang??

Advantages: Excellent multimedia package ahead of its time
Disadvantages: Backward compatability probs, and some minor glitches

...as the average price of the auctions finish at the £400 mark meaning unless they bought them in a job lot they lost some considerable amounts of money. I think for once Sony got it right. Microsoft have already scratched the surface in the next generation stakes as their console the Xbox 360 delivers awesome power as well as introducing high definition compatible graphics and reconstructing the Xbox Live structure to create a gaming community where you can now download demos, videos, music and classic games and if you are a Gold subscriber online multiplayer gaming. One of the slight bones of contention which never really affected me, but I am sure would have affected a lot of other gamers, is the backward compatibility. The ability to play previous Xbox games is restricted to a firmware upgrade upon turning on your console since...

Sony Playstation 3 (PS3)

Advantages: Best Entertainment System Avaliable, Region free games only
Disadvantages: 4GB file limitation External Storage, Cant read NTFS

...I am going to be reviewing possibly one of the biggest console in the market currently the PS3. Firstly I have one and it is great, now let's take a look at it in detail: LAUNCH November 11, 2006: This is when it debut in Japan November 17, 2006: It released in North America March 23, 2007: Finally was released in Europe, Australia, the Middle East, Africa and New Zealand. The UK launch was a shock for who went to it, as it was announced that everyone in the queue would receive a 46" Sony Bravia TV worth £2000. The launches did not turn out great for Sony as initial figures were low, here are the figures below: Worldwide: 5.59 Million - Japan 1,341,000 - North America 2,105,500 - Other 1,300,000 The launch was initially supposed to be as follows: November 11th for Japan and November 17th for North America...

Sony Official PS3 SIXAXIS Wireless Controller

Advantages: Great Design
Disadvantages: No Dual Shock

...This is a great controller jus like the classic ps1/ps2 the design stayed the same. This is the perfect controller i can not say anything about the slick design. As you may know this controller is wireless so you may use it from newere in the room so no messy wires hanging around. And the batttery lasts very long i dont have to charge it very often but i dont play hours every day either. Only bad this about this controller is that unlike the ps1/ps2 controllers this does not have dual shock so no rumble :(.This is because sony could not get rights for the technology. Sony what happened? Well good news this controller is being released again next year as Dual Shock 3 is comming out. So if you can wait i strongly urge you wait for it to come out as it is a great feature. The feeling for the game is lost without dual shock. Need...

Sony Playstation 3 - The User's Review

Advantages: Amazing Graphics, HDMI, Free Online Service, Blu-Ray, Stylish Design
Disadvantages: Large price, Small game library, Expensive games, Slow system updates

...After owning a Nintendo Wii and an Xbox 360, I felt that I had to buy a PlayStation 3 to complete my collection. A very good choice I would say... Pro's: - Amazing graphical power with HDMI 1080p Full-HD Output - Excellent online service (free) - Smashing Blu-Ray drive - Stylish, large design Con's: - Hefty price-tag* - Not a wide selection of games** - Pricey games*** - Slow and annoying system updates**** *The £425 price is one that can be justified by the inclusion of a Blu-Ray drive but is hefty for one that does not care about the Blu-Ray functionality **The PS3's library of games is still very small ***The games for the PS3 are very pricey ranging from £30-50 ****The system updates that are required take a long time to download and install - You must update otherwise you cannot use features such as...

Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3) & XBOX 360

Advantages: Excellent to use and play with...
Disadvantages: The price..

...There has been so much arguments over which console is better the PS3 or the XBOX 360. I looked into which console has what features and their way of communicating to the audience. Also which console has the better online game play and their prices. First I?ll be explaining the functions and features of the SONY PLAYSTATION 3 and then the functions and features of the XBOX 360.
