I personally believe that for those of us who managed to score the 60 gig PS3, we are very lucky to have an incredible piece of hardware. I got this version within its opening year and this system has never failed me since. Its been running like a champion and is totally compatible with all my PS2 games that i own, WIFI connectivity is there, wired connectivity is there....but the only thing missing are the DualShock 3 controllers. Considered that you can get one with the new 80gig but i highly suggest to people to spend their money on the 60 gig, get urself a dualshock 3 controller and ur way better off this way.
Try finding this version for cheaper and u end up with a great addition to your entertainment system. Im just hoping these guys arent trying to create a PS4 yet because the current gen systems still have alot more power that can be squeezed out of them......
1 suggestion...microsoft should switch to a blu-ray player on their XBOX 360's. I think its about time all the mediums switched over to it so 360 users can start enjoying games of high def quality also........DONT MURDER ME FOR THIS JUST SPREADING FAIRNESS.

Well I love my Playstation 3 but the only problem is the games for it because they come out months after they are released on another console but what makes up for they delay in the games release is the games quality of the high definition because the PS3 is really just a console with they power of a high quality computer. What will help the PS3 would be the games that are planned for it because some are titles only for the PS3 such as haze and Metal Gear Solid 4 which are both great games that are only for the PS3.

I've had my PS3 for a year now, and I have to say that while the price is still pretty high, this console finally seems to be coming into its own. Initial PS3 games that I'd played weren't particularly stunning, but now the titles are starting to justify the hardware.
If I had to compare the PS3 to the XBox 360, I'd say the beauty of it is that it doesn't brick itself with a Red Ring of Death. If I had to compare it to the Wii, I'd point out that it's far more of a media entertainment device. And that above all, Sony's strict adherence to backwards compatibility has given it a strong advantage: I can play Playstation 1 and 2 titles with ease and have yet to have one fail to work. This means you still have access to a massive library of titles, and I find myself playing PS2 and PS1 games as much as the few I have for the PS3.
The only bad things I've encountered so far are that the Sixaxis controller's "tilt" functionality (slightly similar to the Wii's ability to physically move the controller in the air to play a game) is very shaky: it's difficult to control. Also, the fans on the PS3 are extremely loud, and run constantly: even playing a movie will create the roar of the unit trying to keep itself cool. I keep my PS3 away from dust and clean it regularly, but it still seems to need to run loud.

Let me start off by saying that the PlayStation 2 was my console of choice during the last iteration of gaming consoles. That said, what follows is my review of the so far unimpressive PlayStation 3.
As of the time of this writing, I have had the console for about a year and I regularly play approximately zero PS3 games. When the console first came out, I purchased Rainbow Six: Vegas and The Darkness, but quickly grew disinterested in both (Vegas primarily for its extreme difficulty level and The Darkness purely because I didn't like it). I soon afterwards picked up The Simpsons Game but casually played that on and off for a while before my interest was drawn away by other games. Another near-immediate pickup for me was the "next gen" version of NCAA Football 08, which SEVERELY disappointed me because I saw a game where the graphics were stepped up phenomenally, but all of the little things in the game that I found to be fun, such as the pennants to unlock stadiums and historic teams, were missing. After a mere couple of hours with the PS3 version, I went back to the store to purchase a copy of the PS2 version. My latest item acquired for the PS3 is The Bourne Conspiracy, a prequel to the Bourne novels and movies. This game seems very promising in the early stages, not becuase of it's shiny new graphics, but because for the first time that I can remember seeing, an action game proudly displays and excels at its hand-to-hand combat.
My biggest complaint about the PS3 was the supposed saving-grace for the system: Grand Theft Auto IV. I won't spare you the details here about everything I posted in my review, I'll just say that the game was a waste of time, I gave it a 5.4 out of 10 rating, and I have abandoned the thought of purchasing any GTA games in the future. Rockstar claimed that IV was going to reinvent the franchise in the way that GTA III reinvented it ... not quite. If it wasn't for the upcoming God of War III, "Hitman 5" (the unofficial name of it so far), Resident Evil 5, and Splinter Cell: Conviction, my PS3 would be on sale.
I've also noticed Sony nickel and diming the hell out of their consumers through the use of this system. It confuses me that a company that was so highly praised for the PS2 being 100% backwards compatible with PS One games, controllers, and memory cards would completely take away some of those features. First off, you can transfer your saves, but you need to purchase a special adapter to do so. As far as the controllers go, they're about as useless as that one you dropped while your friends were over and you still had pizza grease on your hands and it never quite worked the same afterwards. They don't even sell an adapter for the controllers. While in *unnamed store* today, I saw that the controllers had jumped five dollars since the launch of the console.
Overall, I have had almost no fun with this system and the $60 price tag on games which have just about all turned out to be busts for me so far isn't going to turn me on to the system anytime soon.
