The only bad aspect of this station is that you'll end spending too much time playing games. How much fun depends on the game you buy... I bought the game I like and I enjoy it. However, I preferred PS3 over XBox only because of Bluray player and I am very happy I made a good decision.
Slim design with quiet operationJul 28, 2010
I bought the PS3 the big edition when it came out
Unfortunately i downloaded a Upgrade that busted somenthing in the operation system
reparing it was very expensive so i desided to buy the slim edition
I highly recommend checking out the newly designed PlayStation 3 Slim,
as it offers a 120GB hard drive and a slimmer, lighter design...
And i was so happy that again Amazon ships the product right away...
I highly recommend buying it directly from Amazon, well most of the time i perfer
to buy anything from them...
Thanks again Amazon for your excelent costumer service...
 Yay PS3!!Jul 27, 2010
The first product I'm going to review is the Sony PlayStation 3 120GB Slim. This is the second version of the PS3 that Sony has released. The first version was the fat model which apparently went on a diet and is now about 30% smaller. This makes the slim lighter and easier to manage. Like the PS3 fat, the slim also comes with built in Wi-Fi, a 120GB Hard drive, an HDMI output so that you can play games in 1080p as opposed to the default 480i.
Now I'm going to get into the specifics. The first thing you notice when I turn on my PS3 is its awesome display. This is the 1080p I was telling you about. It's crisp, clear and alluring. Now that we're loaded up, I'm going to show you the in-menu features.
The first thing you'll notice when you see the menu, is all of the different things the PS3 can do. The initial thing you should do once you get your PS3 is set up the display and other settings exactly how you want them. You can change the background colors, the clock placements and other aesthetics like these. You can even download wall papers and themes for your background.
Next, you'll notice that you can upload photos into albums! This is a great way to capture and store all of your good times in one, easily accessible place. Now you can view these photos on a big screen!
Next, you'll see that you can also upload music to your PS3. This is one of my absolute favorite features. I can put all of my favorite albums on my Playstation and have them no matter what situation occurs. Whether it's a party, or if I have a girl over, OR I can even play my music WHILE I play some of my games!
Next is the video feature. You can both download and upload videos to you PS3 and watch them at will. If you have a HDMI cable, you can watch these videos in 1080p as long as the video itself has the HD capability. This is where Sony PS3 blows all other game consoles out of the water. PS3 is the only console that supports blu-ray disk capabilities. So forget buying a Blu-Ray player! Just buy a PS3 and get blu-ray PLUS all of these other great features! Plus, what's so unique about the PS3 blu-ray player is that Sony has constant updates which make everything better including the blu-ray player. No other console or blu-ray player can do that!
Next are the games. You can play all PS3 games, demos and some PS1 classics here. Like I said earlier, on certain games you can play the music you have uploaded in the background as opposed to just listening to the game music.
Next, and probably the most important aspect of the PS3 is the Playstation Network. The PSN is basically Sony's online store where you can do all kinds of cool stuff. You can buy games, download demos, game videos, wallpapers and you can even download extra game content for games you've purchased. What's really cool, to me anyways, is that you can also buy games from the first Playstation system under PS1 classics.
Another exclusive feature of the PS3 is that you can surf the web. The PS3 comes equipped with a web-browser; however it doesn't support websites that use flash. You can still get news, check ESPN, youtube and more.
So you're thinking, "I get all of these features for just $299?!" Yes, you do. However there are a few cons to the PS3. I just mentioned the fact that you cannot view websites that require "Flash." Also, the PS3 is not backwards compatible, which means that you can't play PS2 games on the PS3 Slim, though some of the older "fat" versions do have this capability. Also, the online gameplay isn't as developed as Xbox Live, but it's still quite good. And probably the things I hate about the PS3 are the slow download and install times. The say patience is a virtue and I tell you what, the PS3 will teach you patience!
So overall, I'd give the PS3 a 9/10. I bought mine and I love it. You can find this versatile device lots of places for the around the same price; $299 or higher, but if you come to Wavee you can buy it for $292
More than ExpectedJul 27, 2010
Disregard any negative reviews you may read. They are singular, unique issues that can be solved through customer support.
This PS is exactly what you want when it comes to replacing an old unit. Small, light, cooler (saves energy), huge hard drive, and more. Also comes with a dual shock controller! This has the smaller chipsets you have read about, and the prices are not going down anytime soon. Sony has stated they are finally making a profit on the units, so they are gonna ride that wave as long as they can.
