 | JohnTE (0) 07/24/2008 | The best console released in this day and age, the ps3 is a beast among home entertainment electronics. It can do it all, It has more graphic capabilities than the other two consoles on the market and is a solid piece of gaming delight.
Buy a ps3 and have endless entertainment or buy an Xbox360 and feel robbed of your hard earned cash as you wait for it to be repaired for the third time in six months.
The best games for Ps3 are still to come, pick up Metal Gear Solid 4.

 | Strijdom (3) 06/18/2008 | Just more of the same. Sony is an old walnut, and they tried to fix (but instead destroyed) something that wasnt broken. Now, it's become a girlfriendless rich boy's toy. First of all, the graphics arent impressive. To see any improvements, you need a plasma screen. Even if you thought 6 bills was just pocket change, try buying a 50 inch plasma TV that will suck a few more Benjy's worth of power and suffer a burn in before a year of use. Next, the selection of games is just pitiful. Even GTA gets boring after a few weeks of no new games. Simply put, the system is broken in every way possible. PS2 was the best last generation, but now, the PS3 is just another dinasaur that will be relagated to the trash heap in a few years.

 | fb507257454 (0) 11/12/2007 | Probably the most sophisticated console currently out there. Cell processor, reads blu-ray discs, HDMI 1.3 support, connects controllers and headsets via bluetooth, quiet and has no overheating issues, built-in wifi, backward compatible with PS1 and PS2 (60GB and 80GB models). The only thing that sucks about it (at least for now) is the game selection.

 | onolo128 (0) 09/03/2007 | The PlayStation 3 may seem expensive, but it is well worth it in the long run. It isn't worth it if you won't play games online or watch HD movies, (or even play some of the games that wouldn't fit on a single DVD-9, like Resistance: Fall of Man). But if you will do either (or three), it is well worth it. This is a worthwhile investment, as new games will be made for 10 to 15 years.

 | Jamie McBain (44) 07/22/2007 | It's ok I guess. The games are not bad either. But to enjoy the whole experience, you need lots of cash, and a freaking big TV that is in HD,
Both of which I don't have.

 | SLR (0) 06/18/2007 | I have to say, i was extremely disapointed with this console when i first bought it. So much I tried to take it back, but they said that there was nothing wrong with it, so I thought "Shit, what have I just done?" and ended up laying in bed at nights looking at the standby light, having gotten bored of it already, and because the heat that it produced alarmed me. But after a while, I guess I have now accepted that its best stage hasnt arrived yet, im sure the best it has to offer is sure to come, and I also love that shiny new plastic they put on it. Nice touch

 | ninjasword71 (0) 02/25/2007 | Dissapointed!! Graphics are not nearly 2X's better than PS2. I was hoping for mindblowing realism. Not so. Too expensive. I will wait 2 years when the games will look better and the price way cheaper and system being smaller.

 | SpartanPride (21) 02/25/2007 | PS3, it possibly the most dissapointing game consoles I have ever had the misfortune to try. First of all, the thing is so expensive, it's a load of crap. You can get the X box 360, and close to all of it's attachments for the price of a PS3 and four controllers. Second of all, they didn't improve the control lay-out, that is the worst layout for any controls. The graphics don't appear marvelous to me, of course, i've been playing Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion. Resistance was a dissapointment, and unless you have live, it's crap. If you can actually manage to buy a game, it is usually easy to get bored of. Supply and Demand. Sony's going out of business with this move.

 | ILikePie (49) 02/09/2007 | It may have marvellous graphics, but the games are outrageously expensive, as is the console. The amount of money Sony expect you to spend of this overrated heap of junk is awful (£70 games, £600 console, £2000 HDTV...), and then they have the cheek to only give you half the game with this new fad of 'microtransactions'! Sony have also forced many legal game importing sites to close down, just out of spite (as these sites were benifiting game sales for them). I hope the sales of the PS3 are extremely low, just to teach Sony a lesson in integrity and morals, but this will not be the case, as the foolish general public, with little knowledge of gaming, will buy the console with the best graphics, and not look at anything else.

 | xelliz (0) 01/05/2007 |  The PS3 doesn't seem expensive, IT IS expensive.
The PS3 is much larger then previous system's, which had been a huge criticism of the competition. This system is also been plagued with hardware issue's from research, development, production and release. The new PS3 is also appearently a beast of a system to code games for, as noticable by a shift in developers. Blu-ray is a new and dangerous platform, much like Betamax...only time will tell if this is another dead format from Sony or finally a winner. Sony's online service is currently...pathetic. Already surpassed by Nintendo who didn't see fit to provide online for their previous console, Sony began their with the PS2. The weakness of this was made evident when the GT demo downloads for PS3 (keep in mind the low selling numbers at this point) crashed their service.
Sony is however a beast in the gaming industry and still has substantial power and backing. Sony needs to overcome their early release stumble and convince people that the $600 low end price tag isn't a slap in the face. If they can do this and continue to run rampant on game output for their systems, then the PS3 may very well continue Sony's current dominance of the console wars. Currently this isn't the case.
