Playstation 3 - 60GB Reviews

Well Sony you finally made it into the 21st Century.  XBox has been out for how many years now.  And you were bold enough to think that the PS3 was worth more than an Xbox?

Now that the price has been dropped ($ 399) for a 60gb it is now a reasonable alternative.  The game selection has been limited so far, but in recent months, there are more releases coming.  I chose the PS3 because of its' blu-ray capability.  Considering the price of a single blue ray player and a game console combined, it is not a bad deal.

The only real negative is the blu-ray does not automatically upconvert standard...

Our Sony Playstation 3 is everything!  It's our DVD Blue Ray player, our game console, our photo album, our video store - it can do just about anything and was worth every penny we spent. We used to have an XBox 360 but it died three times so we said "enough!" and got a PS3. We'll never look back!

With it's customizable themes, access to the internet and great new games, it's a wonderful product that is a serious technological heavyweight.  Each family member can create their own profile on either the Playstation 3 console or through the Sony Playstation Network [or both!].  That way, everyone...

  As a diehard fan of Microsoft's Xbox 360, I fully expected to find plenty of issues with Sony's oft-delayed PlayStation 3 (PS3). The price is an obvious sticking point: A fully-loaded 60 GB version of the console retails for a horrific $600, a full $200 more than the premium Xbox 360 version. Availability, as I write this, is still an issue: The console has yet to ship in Europe and other major markets, and in the US, finding a PS3 is like winning the lottery: You have to be really lucky, and in the right place at the right time, though there are indications that this situation is finally improving....

It took alot of time to save for it with a family of 4 on one income but it was worth the wait and the best purchase we ever made as far as gaming goes. My boys are both teenagers and they haven't had to switch out games as they would have for another system. The backwards play works great and the newer games WOW on the graphics. Normally I can't watch the more intense graphic games due to an eye problem and motion sickness but not with the PS3 games.

It also has a little something for everyone, which made the price reasonable compared to what you get for your money. There's no more running from...

Heads above the competition. Great graphics and sound. I'd gladly pay more for this than get another X-Box!!! The sleek body styling of the PS3 makes it an attractive addition to the entertainment center and also allows for good air circulation in the hard drive (preventing the overheating issue that has become a common occurrence in the X-Box). I love the fact that the controller can be plugged in or wireless and you simply plug it back in to charge the battery. This is very convenient. The six gyroscopes inside the controller also make for interesting game play. For example, in Heavenly Sword...

Ok so everyone I know is all hyped up on the Playstation 3.  I think it is a really awesome system.  The BlueRay feature is pretty sweet.  We have had our Playstation 3 for several years.  We got it when it first came out.  All the things you look for in a system it has.  The only flaws that my husband and I have experienced are the BlueRay.  It seems to be out and I have yet to figure out how to fix it.  So now we watch only a selected few dvds on it.  Regular dvds do not seem to work either only a small few.  However the games still work.  The controllers dont stay charged to long...
