Abstract: The Playstation 3, love it or hate it, is the newest, most desirable tech toy. This holiday season will find many unfortunate parents and fans left longing for this large black box. So, whats the big deal? Were going to take an in-depth look at the s...
Abstract: Resistance: Fall of Man proved that a game can look great and play well, while including much more detailed environment damage. Shoot a window in Fall of Man and the bullet hits that exact spot and cracks around it. Shoot it a few more times and the wi...

I think my main problem with the PS3 is that philosophically, its a confused system. It doesnt really know what it wants to do. The 360 wants to be a social system; it wants to get you online, talking to people, playing these fun little minigames, an...
Killer gaming performance. Blu-ray player. Media card reader. HDMI out with 1080p. Works with PS1/PS2 titles.
Expensive. HDMI cable sold separately. No more vibrating controller. Hard to find on store shelves.

ole is better". Well first off all the consoles are great in different ways. However, if you are talking about performance and graphic wise the PS3 comes out on top. Yes, the launch titles werent great for the PS3 but this fall you have Assassins Cre...
Amusingly, all of the above ranting is just a very long-winded way of saying this is a system thats ostensibly destined to dominate the videogame industry, but not necessarily this holiday season. Right now, its a premium purchase primarily aimed at ...
The Sony PlayStation 3 will make you pretty darned pleased at what this large but sleekly-designed video game console can do. The bulk of the expense stems from the Blu-Ray DVD capabilities of the console, a format that enables high-definition DVD pla...
Abstract: The Sony PlayStation 3 has incredible potential along with a feature set that is at the top of the heap right now. Considering the length of these product lifecycles, Sony is likely to be the technology leader for at least three years. Beginning in Dec...

Abstract: Even by the considerable standards of past next-generation consoles, the Sony PlayStation 3 has been subject to almost ludicrous levels of prerelease hype and hyperbole. The system was unveiled at E3 2005, where it faced derision for having a glut of u...
SSD storage option, Tiny dimensions, Great media capability, Perfect for newcomers
Flimsy exterior, Cheap drive mechanism, Tough price point
The merits of the PS3 super-slim are quite particular - Sony's really working the 'smaller, lighter' angle, but that's not really going to cut it for owners of either the PS3 Slim or original PS3. We liked You can't accuse the new super-slim PS3 of not li...
