Best Gaming pad around

Advantages: Wireless
Disadvantages: none

...When we bought the Sony PS3 it came with this controller. The controller itself is uses Wireless technology and does come with a charging cable which can be charged by the PS3. You can also buy a Cintroller Charging Station which you put the controllers on when not using and they will charge. The controller has Dualshock which in Game play vibrates, it does this on fighting games when shot or shot at. The controller is an offical Sony product which cost's around £35 but can be bought online for cheaper. Personally I would always but Sony controllers as they are reliable and are guaranteed to work. We have found this item a bonus as we have a 4 year old who loves running around and used to trip over the old wired controllers, now there is no wires to trip over! I would recommend this controller to all gamers as this...

Review of Sony Official PS3 SIXAXIS Wireless Controller

Sony game pad

Advantages: very comfort , less in price, etc.
Disadvantages: a bit big in size

...I play games on my computer. And some games are played with keyboard and some are with mouse. So those games which are played with keyboard these are very difficult to play because there are so many keys on keyboard and it is big in size. Those who want play games on computer without any difficulty then they buy Game pad for PC. And In my opinion the Sony Game pad is the best. ?Introduction to Sony Game Pad? It has 12 buttons and one directional button. It is really comfortable. Four buttons are placed in diamond shape and there are 4 different signs on button like Square, Circle, X and Triangle. These are round in shape. It has also two analog sticks. Left analog is also work as directional button. And it has also another directional button in plus shape. Four buttons are placed on its top and they are denoted with L1, R1...

Review of Sony Dual Shock 2 - game pad

Fantastic 360/PC Pad!

Advantages: Great layout, comfortable and easy to use.
Disadvantages: Confusing marketing, crappy D-pad. (wires)

...Refinement: The Xbox 360 wired controller is a refined version of the original Xbox controller S. Taking design hints from the Gamecube controller it was smaller and more ergonomic than the original black brick that was the original design, making it more appealing to a Japanese audience, the pad was so well received they brought it over to the US and Europe. Looks: The Xbox 360 wired controller is a stylish white with a grey band on the underside of the controller. The face buttons are green, red, yellow and blue matching that of the original Xbox design. There is a metallic Xbox button surrounded by a green glowing ring of light in the centre of the controller, which has four quadrants one of which lights up depending on your player number. The analogue sticks and D-pad are grey as is the cord. The pad will look fine just...

Review of Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Controller - game pad

Great Wireless pad

Advantages: Wireless, dont have to get up to turn on/off console
Disadvantages: Runs on battteries so you need a plug and charge kit really

...of a button on the controller and we have one of the best pads on the market. It may not be as comfortable as the PS2 or PS3 pads in my opinion but it does fit very well into your hands and feels quite natural (if thats possible). The buttons are all in easy to access spots so you shouldn't have any problems using combinations of buttons, with the trigger buttons working very well in driving games with them being pressure sensitive. The batteries dont last a massive amount of time but a plug and charge kit soon sorts that problem. Overall one of the best controllers out there....

Review of Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Controller - game pad

A keyboard to end all remotes.

Advantages: Clickpad control, PS3 compatibility, Plug and Play
Disadvantages: A bit expensive for a keyboard...but still worth the money

...'t own a console myself, but with my Windows XP MCE based machine and my Vista Ultimate laptop it really was plug and play - just pop the dongle into the USB port and pair it with the keyboard using the red buttons (the button on the keyboard is secreted inside the battery compartment, for reference). The keys offer a decent, resounding tactile response - far removed from the rubbery efforts usually found on ultra portable keyboards and remote controls. Whilst I'm sure that nobody would fancy typing a 50,000 word dissertation on this, it's absolutely spot on for smaller chunks of text - including this review! :D The touchpad is a nice addition, and whilst it's unlikely that it'll get much use in my setup as a touch pad it's handy to have the facility should it be needed. Much more useful in the HTPC setup is the ability to flick a switch...

Review of Logitech diNovo Mini - keyboard , Dual-purpose ClickPad

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)

==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)

...alone sell (for a good one) £300 plus, it is also a practical pc, as you can browse the internet which is wirelessly connected through wi-fi, aswell as having bluetooth to connect the six-axis controllers which are still in the ps2 format and that in my opinion is the most comfortable and erganomic design i have ever used and sony made the right choice by keeping this design, the pplaystation 3 is also very user friendly, as i said further back it can be used as a pretty much as a pc, and its really that simple to use, they even sell a wireless keyboard that would make it feel just like using your personal computor but from the comfort of your sofa, now before you say a laptop allows you to use it while sitting on your sofa, well you can, but im yet to find a laptop with a 40'' inch lcd screen, now that alone is worth the rrp, but with all...

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...

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

...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...

Review of Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3)

Fantastic keyboard, so lovely to type on...

Advantages: Separated keys; very nice to type on, very nice to look at (doh!)
Disadvantages: None really

...I've just purchased the Apple Snow Leopard Mac Box Set from my local Apple authorised service provider, and decided to buy an Apple keyboard with it. The Apple keyboard is priced around £28.00 - and no matter what keyboard I try I can type the fastest with this keyboard due to the separated keys. Very quiet key stroke during operation and just very pleasant to use. The keyboard enclosure is made from aluminium and even without being too close to the keyboard you can smell the aluminium when you first open the product, but the smell soon wares off. Nothing bad or anything - just saying! I actually purchased the keyboard without the numeric keypad - but you can purchase one with or without the numeric keypad usually at the same price. The keyboard's caps lock has an LED light on the top left corner to denote the obvious, and you have to...
