Well all i have to say after being a 360 owner since launch day is that the ps3 kicks ass the standard of graphics compared to xbox 360 is worlds away some games do suffer mainly 3rd party titles as the way the ps3 and the 360 run totally are totally different. but nothing to complain about

Things can only get better for the ps3 in my eyes as EA and most other developers have have said that the ps3 is now the lead console so this can only be a good thing. on to the blu-ray side of things i have to admit that blu-ray blew me away Hellboy & planet earth are good examples of what can be done with bluray . also the ps3 is a very good media player handy for playing home movies ect ect and music the play back on dvd is way better than xbox upscaling to almost hd format Watched aliens on dvd through the ps3 a few days ago and i have to say it was awesome .

So anyone looking to buy a ps3 dont think about it do it awesome bit of kit that is just starting to come into its own

The HDD side of things. Well you can upgrade the ps3's HDD you just about any 2.5" sata HDD i have a 500GB hdd in my 60gb PS3

having been a 360 player for ages and gettin the red ring of death finally i decided to not bother gettin it fixed but to buy a ps3 and whoa best choice i say its amazing in every way to the 40 hdd or the amazing cinema like graphics anyone who says this isnt th e best console hasent got one end of so much better than the xbox360 that dead tech compaired to this.. :)

this is amazin bye it while there cheap. you will like it

Right....Just wrote a review for the 360 cause I own both consoles and its 3 am and I cant sleep !!!!!!!!!! Anyway iv got an Xbox Elite and I bought the 40GB PS3 about a month ago. There both fantastic machines with great graphics and great gameplay and MGS4 is unbelievable and by far the best game iv ever played.... might even be slightly better that Gears Of War or Bioshock (oh and Bioshock is a must buy for the PS3 owners who haven't played it on Xbox). I still prefer my 360 ever so slightly just because it has a much wider variety of games and is cheaper and it has so much more memory 120GB compared to 40GB for less money. But thats not putting the PS3 down because Im never going to be able to use 120GB of memory and most games are on both consoles now anyway. The PS3 isn't as noisy as the 360 and online play is free. So for people who are going to get one of these consoles....You will be very happy with both because there a 10/10

PS3 is powerful and has blu-ray. Miles more power than the 360, but zero games of interest. Metal gear is a old kids game and Gran Turiso is constantly delayed, and its "only" a racing game. With Gears 2 coming out and microsoft set to lower prices at christmas, I would invest in a 360. Ignore technical data. Game developers develop to the "available market" and not to the most powerful machine. The PS3 is doomed to fail.

this console,if u can call it that,isnt very good at much.it does a lot of things but nothing well.a relative jack of all trades but the master of none!!
if you want a blu-ray player then great!! but if you want to play games online or surf,then forget about it.seriously,no flash player for the browser.and online gaming is a nightmare.the network is free but you can see why.it cant hold a connection for 10 mins.i cant connect to friends with it and communication between friends is a joke!!!graphically the colours are washed out and faded.and gaming wise...well, wot games? its like this,no one goes from xbox online to ps3 online and says 'ps3 is better!' then the controller is like a cheap piece of plastic in your hands that has no life.but u can always stump up another 35£ for the rumble.

so 2 sum up.if you want a nice piece of furniture to dust every so often then the ps3 is your best buy.because u wont play anything on this besides COD4.

i bought this a few days ago, delivery was very quick.
the console is outstanding in every way, it plays grid, bad company and many more without breaking a sweat, this has to be the best console we will get for at lesast 20 years. in my opinion they could have made the whole of gta 4 distructable and every building open for you to explore because this super fast machine can easily handle it.

plus i am planning to increse the hard drive space with an ssd drive if its possible, that way even the hard drive speed would be incredible.

Got my 40GB PS3 about 3 months ago and game wise so far COD4 and MGS4 have been the only games to really impress me. Online can be annoying! As a casual gamer i find myself spending more time downloading firmware updates than actually playing games online. Apart from that its all good. If you have a HDTV BluRay is a must have!!!

Looking for your next console? Well make sure you purchase Sony's console above the rest, thanks to top quality build quality and excellent software updates this system is far better than anything else on the market (I have all three systems) this is better for all the family, with blockbuster games like Metal Gear Solid 4, Drake's Fortune, and family games like Buzz! Quiz TV and SingStar! Not to mention the upcoming game of the year (without a doubt) Little Big Planet -- MAKE SURE YOU GET THIS GAME IN OCTOBER! Also graphics and raw power is better than anything else, and remember its also liturally a 'top notch' Blu-ray player!! It also upscales your DVD movies to HD Quality! AMAZING!

Buy this. You wont regret it! Great games machine, music player, video player, web browser, and also great for online gaming! Great games out already and more even better games to come.
