The Pros and Cons of the Playstation 3 - PS3

With lots of hype and opinion on what's good and what's bad on the ps3, here is some unbiased information regarding this console. If you're thinking of buying a ps3 and can't decide, this may just help.

Ok, first of all I know I said "unbiased" but I have to say straight off that the ps3, in my opinion is absolutely superb and I refer mainly to its graphics. If you read other people's opinions, most if not all, will say that the graphics are outstanding.

Normally though, there are pros and cons with everything aren't there? If pushed, even a salesperson would have to admit that his or her product has down sides - nothing is perfect, surely?

The Playstation 3, or ps3 as it's very often known, is no exception. The pros first then.

I'll say it again - the graphics have to be number 1 on the list of pros. I mean they are just superb. If there are better graphics out there, I for one have not seen them.

With the ps3 there's an onboard Bluray DVD drive able to hold more information than a standard DVD disc. The Xbox 360 certainly supports Bluray but it doesn't come with the package - with the ps3 it does!

The games for ps3 are truly superb. Not my opinion only, just check on the internet for feedback.

The ps3 comes with a motion sensitive controller but this is not as advanced as the one from Nintendo. With the ps3 controller you are still really stuck on your butt doing much the same as if it were not motion sensitive.

Load of space on this thing with around 40 to 60 GB! Wow!

The cons?

Not many cons. Both in my opinion and in most reviews.

It is evident though that the first of the cons is the price at around £299. Its competitor, the Wii is around £179. £300 is a lot of money to fork out and of course you need the games to play the ps3.

Programming the ps3 might, if you're a newbie, be a little difficult to get your head around.

Many a person have stated in reviews and elsewhere that the lack of a rumble feature on the controller is a disappointment. It takes just a tad of excitement off the edge of gaming. It may not be a problem to you, especially if it's your first console and in the light of that you may not consider this to be one of the cons.

Some may argue that the pros and cons weigh each other out and that the bottom line is, the ps3 is just superb! That may be. But the decision now is yours.
