  Playstation 3 - PS3 or Blu-Ray Player? How about both?

PS3 or Blu-Ray Player? How about both?

I was going to buy a Blu-Ray player. There ended up being a special price on the PS3 and I had to make a choice. I was able to convince myself and more importantly my wife, that the clear choice was the PS3. From high end gaming to high definition movies, we get the best of both worlds. On top of all of that, we get an internet connection on our TV that can be used to stream movies and tv shows and download games. view more

  Playstation 3 - Playstation 3

Playstation 3

This system out weighs Xbox by miles. The intergrated Blu-Ray is really what puts it over the top. I have known people that have paid almost the same price for just a Blu-ray player as they could have paid for the playstation. XBox would have had better ground if theuy would have put a HDDVD drive in the unit. NO HDDVD and still just a little under what the PS3 costs. view more

  Playstation 3 - XBOX is not even on the same level!

XBOX is not even on the same level!

There is no argument here as the victor! I can not believe that there ever was an argument actually. I have owned and played both gaming systems and the PS3 is my clear choice. Blu-ray, no pay to play online, less "cartooney" games. I really could go on for quite a while but i recommend you seeing for yourself. view more

  Playstation 3 - PS3 Today!

PS3 Today!

I love my PS3. I bought it for two reasons. 1) I enjoy PS games more than other consoles and 2) for the Blu-Ray player. Two great features wrapped up in one. So until a PS4 arrives I will be content. I just hope they dont try 3D! view more

  Playstation 3 - How do I convince the fiance to get one???

How do I convince the fiance to get one?...

I have owned a Playstation since 1998. As soon as the PS2 was out I bought it. Now that the PS3 has been out forever I still need to get one. It seems that everytime I am able to get one the future ex-wife seems to find something else to spend the money on. Lets be honest its the best way to spend 300 dollars. Anyway I go to friends houses and play the PS3 all the time I believe its the greatest system made. No other system has what it has. Even the controller is the most comfortable controller. Xbox is too big and Wii is just too wierd. view more

  Playstation 3 - Great Gaame Console

Great Gaame Console

We have had our PS3 from the very day that it hit the shelves. I have to say that that is the best money that I have ever spent on my husband! It can be used by everyone in the family in several different ways. I love that you can not only play video games. but watch movies, stream the internet and even download Netflix movies too! My daughter is always inviting her friends over to play Rock Band and it is such a fun thing to have in the house. view more

  Playstation 3 - Very versatile

Very versatile

The Playstation 3 is a very versatile game console. It is not just for playing games. In fact, I never play games on it. (Only my boyfriend does.) We also use it for watching Netflix and he uses it to surf the Internet. It's very rare for him to ever touch my computer. view more

  Playstation 3 - Best Video Game Console Ever!!!

Best Video Game Console Ever!!!

I used to have an XBox 360 and actually still own it but don't have a power cord for it any longer because the original cord got fried in a flood. A couple years ago my wife let me buy a PS3 and I haven't regretted switching over ever since. The picture quality on the PS3 games is superior in my opinion and you can play blu-ray movies! To be honest, the PS3 has one of the best blu-ray players as well! Another perk is the fact the the Playstation Network, though indeed it was hacked a while back, is at least free to access. The PS3 is just an all around superior video game console. view more

  Playstation 3 - The only game I need.

The only game I need.

I love the PS3 it is the only game system we play now. We have one of the first generation 60gb PS3s. We have had this thing for about 5 years and it still runs like new. Just to make a good comparason we have purchased another game system ( I won't name any names) and we have had to buy it a few times because it kept going out. The PS3 has never had any problems and they keep coming out with great disc games and online exclusives. view more

I absolutely love the PS3. Not only do the games have the coolest graphics but the fact that it plays all kinds of movies and blu-rays is awesome. My kids constantly watch movies and my husband loves the latests sports games. view more

  Playstation 3 - My lasting gaming console.

My lasting gaming console.

I've never had too many problems with my PS3, except the outage they had from online for a while. The graphics are good enough for me, and the game selection has anything I personally look for. I haven't explored much in the accesories, but I trust Sony and plan to do so. view more

  Playstation 3 - Playstation 3 - Great System, Multiple Uses

Playstation 3 - Great System, Multiple U...

I received a Playstation 3 from my husband last Christmas and have been enjoying its many features ever since. This gaming console also serves as a DVD player and Bluray player, can be used to surf the web or play music from Pandora, and the list goes on... I am discovering more uses for my PS3 monthly. I love the assortment of games available. My favorites so far are Zumba, Lego Indiana Jones, and Lights Out. I guarantee that if you purchase this system, it won't sit idle assuming you like to watch movies, play games, and listen to music. It was a great gift for me, and I would recommend it to people who might not want to have a separate box for each function, such as DVD player, Bluray player, etc. With the PS3, you get an all in one system that saves your space and provides lots of ways to entertain. view more

  Playstation 3 - Great media center, video gaming system

Great media center, video gaming system

Playstation 3 has fantastic graphics and sound along with a great setup for streaming videos and audio to your system to easy sharing. Also it is being utilized by developers for great apps such as the Netflix app which allows you to use your Netflix subscription with your PS3 for great image and audio quality. The only gripe that I do have with the system is the not-very-seamless Playstation Network. It is often times slow and frustrating, not to mention the major security breach of earlier in the year. I think that the online component is one aspect where Sony could learn a lot from Microsoft. view more

I won the PS3 over a year along with PlayOn's lifetime premium license. I really only use the ps3 for the media server using PlayON and I am loving it. I dont know how I could do without. Games are excellent to on the system too. view more

  Playstation 3 - I love this thing!

I love this thing!

I've had this system for a couple years now, after saving up and finally being able to own it. It's had a lot of flack in media and all over game sites, but I personally love this system, and feel it's better then any other console. I've loved playing the games I've owned, and have had very little problems with it. I hope to play this one for many years, and I feel it's got a lot of life to it yet. This is a great system, and has great games, specially the exclusives, best in the business. If you don't own this your missing out on some great games! view more

  Playstation 3 - Best Birthday Present Ever

Best Birthday Present Ever

So I bought my PS3 for myself for my birthday. I was having a tough year and wanted something to amuse myself. I bought my the Metal Gear Solid edition and bought GTA 4 along with it. This have me two great games to start out with and I have had great fun ever since. I am happy that my PS3 is still back compatible, one of the last models that was. This console has given me many hundreds of great hours of fun and given me very little trouble. It has frozen on me a couple times, but in the three years i have had it, i have never had a real problem with it. I now use it to watch netflix in addition to gaming. This is a powerful console with great exclusive games. A great investment for your entertainment. view more

  Playstation 3 - Does almost EVERYTHING!

Does almost EVERYTHING!

Bought my 60GB ps3 right before they stopped making them. Been very happy with the machine for the most part, never had any mechanical issues. Blu-ray is awesome! They have some great exclusive games with a solid lineup. Having all my music stored on there is pretty sweet. I have an external hard drive with movies that plugs right in and watchable on the ps3, sweet! Playstation Home, not for me, but there. Free online is cool. The removal of 'Other OS' was a bad, bad thing and has soured me on future Sony game systems, but that's for a whole other review. Over all, it does what it's supposed to do and it does it well, but you never know what Sony may take back tomorrow. view more

  Playstation 3 - play station 3

play station 3

Playstation3 is a great gaming console. The graphics are great and the sounds are equally excellent. It doesn't stop there some playstation3 games have blue-tooth capabilities, Plus some games have 3-d capabilities. Also ps3 has Blu-ray built in, so you can also watch movies. Now to finally sale you that this is worth buying It has internet which means you get a whole lot more stuff than you started. So ps3 if you know where can pay for itself. view more

  Playstation 3 - play station 3

play station 3

I think PlayStation is a major success for Sony. The graphics are excellent, The choices are nearly unlimited due to being able to download through PlayStation store, and PlayStation plus. PlayStation Move just came out too, so now motion controlled games are available so there are pretty much no limit to the fun you can have. The PlayStation is a great console, and I think the best view more

  Playstation 3 - PS3 rocks.

PS3 rocks.

I love my PS3. The graphics are fantastic, games are plentiful (and cheap), it plays bluray like a dream, has great connectivity, and plays nice with just about whatever else you decide to hook up to it. It's just a ton of fun, although there's less titles available for kids than the Wii, but Little Big Planet is reason enough to buy a PS3. view more

Playstation 3

My dad bought me and my siblings this about a couple months ago. I expected that they would have good games but they don't. On the other hand, this game console has internet capability which is a good thing because I go on the internet all the time, but if you want to buy a game console it's probably better to buy a Wii. view more

  Playstation 3 - We would be lost without our PS3

We would be lost without our PS3

I was not looking forward to getting the Playstation when we bought our first one. I thought it was a waste of money, and just another gaming console to take up space and time and money. But the Playstation 3 turned out to be of very good use! We had the original and got the "green light of death" or something like that, red light maybe? Anyway, it died, and instead of paying for it to be fixed, we just bought a new one. We didn't realize how much we relied on the machine. It was our source of television (Netflix, we don't use cable), internet (we have computers, but it was easy to go to the browser if you were right there), music, games, pictures even. It was a great investment. view more

  Playstation 3 - Great Gaming System

Great Gaming System

The Playstation 3 is a great gaming system. The graphics and game play are great and the Play Station Network allows you to play your games online with your friends. The PS3 is also so much more than a gaming system though. It's an excellent bluray player, and it also allows you to stream Netflix videos straight to your TV. It's an all in one entertainment system at a great price. view more

great gaming system, better graphics and gameplay than the wii, i was a little disapointed with sony putting a stop to the backwards compatibility, particularly mot playing ps2 games, i do have a 60gb that plays all ps2 games but i would like to have a newer one (slim), but overall good product view more

  Playstation 3 - My FAVORITE game system!!

My FAVORITE game system!!

I'm 35 years old, so of course I've seen and had many game systems over the years. This system however has been my favorite and I'm not sure I'll ever part with it even if they "claim" they made something better. They have so many of the "types" of games I like to play that I'm not sure I'd ever get through them all. The grapics are great and the sleek look of the system is nice as well. I think the price was perfect and I've NEVER had one problem with it at all. This one will for sure be a hard game system to beat. view more

  Playstation 3 - Great Games, Great System

Great Games, Great System

The PlayStation 3 was the last of the three current consoles that I got, but it's starting to become my favorite of them. Sony's got some first-rate talent making games for this thing. Naughty Dog's Uncharted series is insanely great. I also love that the system plays Blu-Ray discs, and streams Netflix and Hulu+. I use it basically every day because of these features. It really is a home entertainment device and can function as the center of your home theatre. view more

Many uses!

I purchased my PS3 to be a high end DVD player when I purchased my first LCD tv & love it! Now use it on Blu-Ray & gaming as well. Love that you have a optical output & hdmi output for high quality picture & audio playback. Cannot wait for my 3D tv to try that out. view more

  Playstation 3 - Ps3

Ps3

I have a 30G PlayStation 3 fat. I have always been a fan of the PlayStation. I had the PlayStation, PlayStation 2 and when the 3 came out. I had to get it. I've enjoyed playing game on it. The graphics are amazing and the game play flawless. the only negative thing I can say is that my lens got burned and for Sony to fix it, I might as well add the amount they wanna charge to some money and get a new one. I also dont like the whole cinivia bit they have implemented into the system. But overall, I wouldn't trade my ps3 for any other system view more

  Playstation 3 - Awesome System

Awesome System

I have had a PlayStation 3 going on 2 years and I cannot complain at all. My system has never broken down on me. I have enjoyed every game that has I have played on it, and I enjoy the media capability that the console has. The thing that separates the PS3 from other consoles are its web browser, graphics and feel. When you play a PS3 game you feel like you are actually playing a console game and not an overpriced computer game. view more

PS3 is not the choice

I purchased my play stations 3 years ago and after 14 months the hard drive failed. So I had to send it back for repair. Six months later I got the blue light special and decided it was time to upgrade to the XBOX. There is no comparison to the online play and the hardware, never mind the security breach that compromised 10 million PSN accounts. view more

  Playstation 3 - Less than great

Less than great

I recently got a PS3, and have already had several problems with it. First of all, I am so disappointed in some of the design elements. Why in the world would Sony make it so the controllers can only charge when the system is on? Now I have to go buy a charging cradle. I was also annoyed that I can't play my old PS2 games on it. Oh Sony, I used to be such a fan. Now I am starting to wonder if I should have gone for the Xbox 360 instead. view more

Best Buy - PS3 - best BluRay player - an...

As everyone knows, the Sony Playstation 3 is a superior next generation console gaming system. What most people do NOT take into consideration is that it actually is a bargain price BluRay player as well. There is no better station ou can get on the market for cheaper, however it is superior to most of the more expensive players as well. The games are also able to use higher quality graphics, and the controllers are more balanced for playing than most systems. The online Playstation Network is FREE unlike others, and as a bonus, there are some older versions that can play legacy playstation console games as well. Overall, great buy - you can't do better than the Playstation 3 view more

I absolutely love mine, and it is my first sony product. If you are debating on which gaming system to buy, do yourself a favor and buy a ps3. view more

Been a Playstation 3 gamer since 2006 (Wow! five years already.). I remember standing in line for so long just so I can get my hands on the 60GB model. Best $600 dollars I spent. From being able to not only play PS3, DVDs, and Blu-Ray movies, this big guy is able to play PSone, and PS2 games. Not to mention that I can even go on the internet with it. There is so much the system can do. You can never get tired of the PS3. view more
