White Sony PSP Indepth Review inc Video Software

Advantages: Crisp, Sharp Screen, Combined MP3 and MP4 Player.
Disadvantages: Bulky, Small Capacity Memory Stick included, Battery Life

...and clear graphics of the tracks but not so much on the cars. The race music is awful but the actual game play with the drifting and arcade theme is just perfect. The only other fault I have found is that even though there are 24 tracks to unlock and a variety of cars, the same 3 laps and 12 cars on a race over and over again does get slightly boring, but never the less a great release game. Now for the media functions of the PSP. The PSP was not only designed to play games. One of the main selling points of the PSP was the fact that it wasn't just a portable gaming platform, but also a media viewer. It was something you could game on, listen to music, watch video and show off pictures on. Now pictures and music are easily enough transferred onto the device. A quick drag and drop movement is all you need to do. First off though you need to...

Review of Sony PlayStation Portable (PSP)

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...

Review of Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3)

Sony is back with a bang!

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

...or nose bleeds. The super slow-mo replays of the knock out punches look so realistic that you will twist your face as if feeling their pain. My overall verdict of this console is that it really is a gem to behold and play. Looking much better and sexier than its blocky predecessor it commands you to play it and give it the attention it deserves. With the release of the launch titles and the innovative controllers, Sony are showing exactly why they should rule the roost when it comes to the video-game market. But the hefty price-tag on the console and the games themselves means that a lot of people will be put off from owning a console that plays like a dream. I would urge everyone currently sitting on a fence to at least have a go on it before you make up your mind, just try playing the spine-chilling Resistance: Fall of Man or the body...

Review of Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3)

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...

Review of Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3)

Sony Playstation 3 (PS3)

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

...about this section is that it may be impressive now but soon it won't be as much, as computers are advancing rapidly now e.g. dual core, quad core games will be maybe 5 times better than the ps3 will be able to show. So if you are one of those people who wants to get the most they can from games then go with PC instead as it is easy to upgrade and games will continue to improve. The GPU was developed by NVIDIA and Sony, This graphics card is similar to NVIDIA 7800. This tells me that already the pc has a better graphics card than the PS3 as NVIDIA has released 8800 ULTRA and soon will be releasing 9 series. Just makes you wonder how long it will be before Sony decides to make you buy a PS4. My bet is within 3-4 years. So is it worth spending that much money on a PS3 is the life expectancy is not long? • Storage is important...

Ipod nano v3 video

Advantages: Everything, good sound, good picture quality, good battery life
Disadvantages: Its quite pricey but worth the money

...and gives a very good picture. I was amazed when I watched a video on it the picture was actually better than my TVs. Battery The battery can last up to 24 hours it goes quicker the louder you listen to it, the more games you play on it and when you watch videos. Price The iPods start from £99.99 for a 4 GB version and for the 8 GB version it costs £129.99 the iPod is excellent values for money and you can't really fault it. Recommendation I would defiantly recommend this to any potential buyers it's a really good, easy to use mp3 player. Which has many features that other mp3s don't have such as the ability to play and download games and videos. It also has a decent screen size and quality. This ipod is a definate must....

Review of Apple iPod Nano video 8GB Third Generation

Sony Digital Video Camera Recorder

Advantages: Hi Resolution, 8mm tapes, hand-cam size, reliable.
Disadvantages: Just eye-piece viewfinder.

...I bought my Sony Digital Video Camcorder (DCR-TR7000) as a new millennium present to myself to take to London and get some shots from the top of the Millennium Wheel. All right it was about 10 months late because the Wheel wasn't operating for several months if I remember correctly. When we booked it, I did not fancy taking my SVHS Panasonic Camcorder because a), it was too big and heavy to hump around London and b), because it had let me down several times and couldn't be relied upon. I bought the Sony in Comet's on an end-of-line deal reduced to just under £400 from around £600 at the time. The next newest model had and adjustable LCD screen and the TR7000 didn't. This didn't bother me too much because to view the LCD screen meant I had to put on my reading glasses to see it properly, an activity which causes problems with our...

Review of Sony DCR-TR7000

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...

Review of Sony Official PS3 SIXAXIS Wireless Controller

Another great console from Sony

Advantages: Really good graphics, Blue Ray player built in, wireless internet for free
Disadvantages: High price, loud fan when playing games

...Sony's next generation console was well worth the wait from the Playstation 2. I have owned a PS3 for just over a year now and I have so far had no problems with it and to see the quality of the graphics of any game was incredible, and it was such a step up from the PS2. Although Sony was late in releasing the PS3, it was worth the wait in the end, although I did consider getting an Xbox 360 instead. The Xbox 360 came out much earlier and allowed microsoft the oppurtunity to get more Xbox 360's out there before the PS3 was even out. However there have been many reported problems with the Xbox 360, such as the console freezing, so I thought I best play it safe and instead get the PS3 when I had some money. The PS3 also offers more benefits over the Xbox 360, like free online play and less reported faults with the console in general...

Review of Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3)

==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...
