Review of Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3)

Playstation 3 80GB

Advantages: Powerful - Good Looking - Easy to setup - Loads of games
Disadvantages: Quite heavy and bulky - Slow install and download times

...Pretty much all of the versions are the same - but this is for the 80GB version. This is my opinion but after having the 40GB version - I do feel that this system stays cooler than the 40GB version. The console is very heavy - and it is quite bulky - but it doesn't really matter. It looks very stylish - but it is basically a fingerprint magnet - the marks can be wiped off - but it is a bit annoying. Setup - When you first attempt to setup the console - it is best that you read the instructions - it can be complicated. If you are connecting to a HD TV - you basically just connect the cable to the TV and console - turn console and Tv on - then select HDMI on the TV - then run the setup - it will says a HDMI device has been detected - do you want to configure - say yes and then let it detect the settings - the screen will go blank...

Sony PS3 Got to be the best console

Advantages: Amazing game play & amazing blue ray dvd player
Disadvantages: You become a PS3 widow if you buy one for your partner

...After a lot of thinking I finally decided to purchase a PS3 of my other half birthday, he used to play on his PS2 all the time but was getting to the stage where getting any good new games was a nightmare. Needless to say this games console does not dissappoint, other members of my family have the Wii & Xbox personally I think the games console leaves them far behind. Im not one for going on about the spec of a machine (dont know enough about that side of it) so ill just tell you what I think of the console itself. The gameplay which is what most people purchase this item for is amazing, I bought him Medal Of Honour Airborne to go with this & its so lifelike its untrue & its def worth purchasing a hi def cable for it (usually about £10), this makes the games even more spetacular. You can also connect the playstation to the internet...

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.

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 Playstation 3 (PS3)

Advantages: HD capable, Blu-Ray player, variety of games, no extra cost online gaming.
Disadvantages: Relatively large console, initial cost of the console.

...For people looking to buy a next generation console then the PS3 does not disapoint. With HD technology and easy to access, free (no charge ontop of your usual internet fee) online gaming it makes the most of the latest technology. A major plus for the PS3 over the X-box 360 is the fact that it has a Blu-Ray player built in. The vast choice of games available in all different genres make this console suitable for any user. From sports titles like FIFA to shoot-em up's like Call of Duty, to Platforms/Adventure in Assasains Creed to Racing games like Burnout; there a top titles for anyone to enjoy. With the wireless 'Sixaxis' controllers allowing freedom of movement and a long battery life it allows for ease of use.

Review of Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3)

PS3 Console

Advantages: Amazing graphics and gaming capabilities, looks great
Disadvantages: quite a high price

...I don't need to write much to review the PS3 (although I will...), it can be described with one word : amazing Ill be reviewing the 60gb version that is available in the UK. (the technical specification, from the US sony website, are at the bottom) The console looks superb, it is quite large but has a shiny black body and a sleek silver finish, the body is curved slightly and really looks good. However the body does easily attract dust and scratches so you will need to clean it regularly. The "PS" logo on the front (above the disk drive) can be rotated so that t is the right way up whether the console is horizontal or vertical. The disk slot is much better than the old sliding trays on the PS2's, makes the console look better and probably won't break as easily! The on/off and eject buttons are touch sensitive and this takes a while...

PS3 - 'A console for the future'

Advantages: Media capabilities, Huge Potential, Amazing Operating System, In-built wifi, Blu Ray
Disadvantages: Playstation network needs improving, Needs more extra Features, Games, Price

...a great future, and with an incoming 'burst' of blockbuster games and an already solidfying back catalog it will always be a good buy. The higher price tag is justified with the improvements and constant updates Sony is making to this console. In conclusion, the PS3 is a good console. It has an improving catalog of games, an excellent media system and an improving online. I consider it a good buy and a good investment for the future....

Review of Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3)

PS3 is really the next generation gaming console.

Advantages: HD support for gaming, films in the shape of blu ray and sound. Along with a free online service.
Disadvantages: Downloading can take up hard drive space quickly.

...In my opinion the Playstation 3 is the greatest gaming console out in the current market. When i bought the product, i didn't buy only a gaming machine, i actually bought an entertainment machine. The Playstation 3 gives you the most powerful gaming console out in the market with some of the best games including Gran Turismo 5, God of War 3 and Uncharted 2 which are only on the Playstation 3. Other then gaming, the PS3 offers more features including a blu ray player. Blu Ray is the next generation of disc which hold and play 1080p HD media including films. The PS3 also has photo support, music support, internet support. In my opinion one of the main advantages of the PS3 is the free Playstation Network which allows players to play games online against players around the world for free. The service runs smoothly. The Playstation 3 has...
