What To Expect When You're Expecting A Playstation 3! (Another Layperson's Review!)

Date of Review:  Oct 22, 2009
The Bottom Line:

I, rather improbably, discover the Playstation 3 to be a great Blu-Ray player . . . and then some!

Review: One of the assets of a website like Epinions certainly comes from writers who are willing to write outside their comfort level and who share experiences based upon having completely ignorant experiences with materials new to them. This is exactly...

Great product with lots of built-in potential (PS3 80GB bundle from Costco)

Date of Review:  Dec 23, 2009
The Bottom Line: A very good product to own with a lot of built-in capabilities to exploit. Do search hard for price deals though!
Review: What do I review that others have not already covered? Two things:

Q1. What do you want to do with your PS3?
Q2. How to do what you want to do with your PS3?

To better answer Q1, let me state what can the PS3 do for a regular user...

Playstation 3

Date of Review:  Jul 21, 2009
The Bottom Line: If you want a good gaming system with many extra features, the ps3 is your system.
Review: There are many reasons I decided to buy a Sony ps3 over the other systems out there.  A few of the main reasons are:
-It is also a blu-ray player
-Free online play (no subscription cost)
-Best graphics
-Bluetooth compatible

It is...

Playstation 3

Review: There are so many great things about the PS3.  Blu Ray Disc Player, HD Graphics, and wireless internet connection for playing online.  The games are way awesome!  I just don't like how everything is so expensive about the PS3, but I will say that...

Issues with Playstation 3 Bluray capabilities

Date of Review:  Feb 4, 2009
The Bottom Line:

If you are solely interested in using PS3 as a bluray player, there are much better choices and cheaper.

Review: I have a 80 gb PS3 which i intend to use as a bluray player after reading all the glowing reports and reviews.

The following are some of the issues I have come across which I think everybody who is considering to buy a PS3 for use as a blu...

If you want Blueray, go buy it!

Date of Review:  May 26, 2009
The Bottom Line: If you want a Blue Ray player but occassionally like to play a video game or two, get a PS3!
Review: I began considering a Blue Ray player ever since I watched part of a movie on a PS3 at a local store.  OMG...the picture was awesome.  At the time of my PS3 purchase, Blue Ray players hovered around $300-400.  So, I thought hey why not pay $480 for...

Not just for video games!

Date of Review:  Nov 10, 2009
Review: My husband and I couldn't decide whether to buy just a blu-ray disc player or to purchase the Sony Playstation 3. After researching and finding that the price of the SP3 was pretty much the same as a blu- ray player, we decided to purchase the SP3...
