Sonys Playstation 3 is definitely a powerful machine. Offering incredible graphics and the added bonus of a Blu-Ray drive

Flimsy exterior
Cheap drive mechanism
Tough price point
Expensive for a games console
Few outstanding exclusive titles in launch line-up
Limited backwards compatibility
Only comes with composite cables
Sixaxis capability needs to be better utilised
Expensive for a games console. No 1080p/24 video output for Blu-ray. Surround audio via optical or HDMI only. No WMA or WMV support. In box
The PS3 is shaping up to be a great gaming platform after what we can firmly class as a disappointing launch, we have mentioned some issues we find inexcusable, such as the lack of component video cable in the box and a shoddy and rushed list of relea...

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...
The hardware looks great, and runs nearly silently and very cool
Wireless controller is light and feels great
Great-looking Blu-ray movie playback
Price is low for a Bluy-ray player
A lot of multimedia options
Solid backwards compatibility
Terrible online store
Slow, unintuitive browser
No background downloading
Games continue to play even if you eject the disc; you have to manually restart the UI via the controller
Messy UI
HD scaler doesnt work right
Price is high for a video game con...

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.
