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...

Impressive smart features, decent sound and picture, lower price
Feels cheap, dedicated decks beat it on performance and match it for smart features
The new PS3 Super Slim feels like a stop-gap until the next generation of the console is launched – the rumour is June 2013 – and those that already own the console don't have a huge incentive to upgrade.But if you haven't considered a PS3 before, then no...
It's pricey and the choice of games can't match the Xbox 360's.
