Fun but very pricey!

Date of Review:  Dec 28, 2007
The Bottom Line: I would buy this for the online play and audio and media capabilites.
Review: I recently just bought a PS3 80 gig.

I have a Wii and am used to the user friendly design of the Wii.

The PS3 has alot of capabilties, Play and store music from a cd, play DVDs, play blu-rays, it also has numerous slots for...

Latest and Greatest Console

Date of Review:  Dec 31, 2007
The Bottom Line: Buy it, play it hard when you get it in case of failure. Most electronics fail early in their life if they fail at all.
Review: I waited a little over a year to dive in to Next Gen consoles. Now that I have it's been an interesting experience.

Lets start with comparing the various PS3 consoles on the market.

Right now you can buy an 80GB version that...

A Great System That Needs More Great Games

Date of Review:  Jan 29, 2008
The Bottom Line: The eighty gig appears to be on the way out, so you might want to wait and see if a new model or price drop is announced.
Review: I recently purchased a Sony PlayStation 3 game console. I won't lie. I mostly bought it for the Blu-Ray player, as I recently upgraded to a 42" 1080p plasma television and wanted to make the most of it.

However, as a gamer by nature (I...

underwhelmed, but it'll stay around my house

Date of Review:  Jan 11, 2009
The Bottom Line: Get it if you're SURE you like it. I trusted the literature/sales hype/street buzz more than my own test-driving, and that was MOSTLY a mistake!
Review: I got a PS3 console (after having used a PS2 very happily for ages) as a "self-serve Christmas present," since I was visiting my parents in a location at which there was a Sony outlet store and they had the 40 and 80 GB models on sale at respectable...

40 Hours in Line, and Worth Every Minute

Date of Review:  Nov 17, 2006
The Bottom Line: We Got One!
Review: Getting One is Half the Fun

As a rule, people hate to wait in line for anything. If we have to wait ten minutes in line at the bank, it's a major hardship. Fifteen minutes for a cashier at the supermarket, and we're livid. Yet, there we...

Nice system if you don't have Xbox 360

Date of Review:  Dec 9, 2007
The Bottom Line: Great system, but almost pointless if you have a Xbox 360. Not enough exclusives.
Review: I bought my PS3 (60 GB model) soon after launch and I really don't play any games on it. I bought it mainly for the Blu-Ray drive, which is great. Movies look and sound fantastic on Blu-Ray, there is a huge difference between DVD and Blu-Ray. Now...

Sony Playstation 3 Best system ever?

Date of Review:  Feb 21, 2008
The Bottom Line: I recomend buying this system so you can get the ultimate video game experience.
Review: I bought a Playstation 3 system about 4 months ago. I bought the 80gb version which also came with motorstorm. This is by far the best system I have ever bought. Although costly you can do many things on the ps3. It has wireless internet so no more...

Playstation 3 80 gig

Date of Review:  Mar 25, 2008
The Bottom Line: I highly recommend this console.
Review: I bought a Playstation 3 about 2 months ago. It is awesome. The 80 gig built in memory doesn't require a memory card and is Playstation 2 compatiable. The 40 gig is not so I shelled out 599.00 for it. the only draw back thus far is there are not...

The "Apple" of the consoles

Date of Review:  Oct 28, 2007
The Bottom Line: Worth every cent.
Review: So why did I choose the Sony Playstation 3?

Although the most expensive, it offered by far the best value. Wii doesn't offer HD graphics. I have a large HD plasma screen and couldn't bear the low-res graphics.
XBOX 360 - has had a...

An Awesome Entertainment Powerhouse

Date of Review:  Mar 19, 2008
The Bottom Line: This is a nice entertainment unit for someone who wants a very good gaming system and a Blu-ray player.
Review: I have owned my Sony Playstation 3 for 2 months now and I have to say it is the best gaming system I have ever played. Granted I have played games since the first Pong and Atari systems and every other system that has came around and this one takes...
