Sony PlayStation 3 PS3

There are many versions of the Sony Playstation 3 console, mainly depending on its hard disk drive – from 40GB to limited edition 250GB. The most common model available in stores now are the PS3 Slim Console with 60GB and 120GB HDD. These are the leaner and meaner models – 32% smaller, 36% lighter and 34% less in power consumption than the other PS3 releases.

High-definition gaming and movie viewing are ensured with the additional BRAVIA Sync feature and High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI). So even when you play your games via standard TV, you can still enjoy intense graphics. Multimedia support is also guaranteed – video games, movies, music and photos. Plus it has backwards capability to play over 1,000 PSone and PS2 games.

The pre-installed massive storage capacity and Giga-bit Ethernet enable you to download and access online games and network services. Surf the Internet using the PS3 Internet Browser and SIXAXIS wireless controller. It also has added features of 4 USB ports (60GB model) and card slots for MemoryStick, SD or CompactFlash for enhanced connectivity.

Helpful Sony Playstation 3 reviews from customers

“The PS3 is a brilliant console with a great range of games to play, and is quick and easy to set up. With the addition of a cheap HDMI cable, the picture quality became astounding! On top of that, with access to the PlayStation Network Store you can download game demos, trailers, additional content for a lot of games, and from quite recently you can purchase and download entire films! You can also find a wide range of old PlayStation games on the store as well, none of which are expensive.”  From Amazon

“I love the ps3 the console itself is great and the games for the ps3 are really good and fun to play. Buy a ps3 you will not be disappointed!” From Play.com

    I don’t think it has backwards compatibility, despite the fact it is the best console ever.
