PS3 is the most advanced computer system that serves as a platform to enjoy next generation computer entertainment contents in the home, realised through the combination of Cell and RSX processors. Having Giga-bit Ethernet and a pre-installed hard disk drive (HDD) as standard in PS3, users will be able to download a variety of contents as well as access on-line games and services over the network.

Equipped with basic input/output ports, PS3 supports a broad range of displays from conventional NTSC/PAL standard TVs to the latest full HD (1080i/1080p) flat panel displays, offering the joy of the most advanced computer entertainment contents to homes around the world. For use in living rooms, maximum heat and noise reduction has been achieved with a noise level equivalent to that of the current slim-line PlayStation 2. With the overwhelming computational power of the Cell processor, PS3 is capable of playing back content from Blu-ray (BD) disc at a bit rate of multiplex 48Mbps with ease, the maximum bit rate defined in BD standards.

Xbox 360's do seem a good purchase but they are very unreliable overall with those goddamn red lights.i had both machines but sold my xbox 360 and glad i did as it's reassuring to know when i switch my ps3 on it's going to work.free online gaming saving you £40 a year is a great addition so when you start adding little things up like blu-ray etc it's a much better package.i've had mine a year with no problems yet and never played a ps2 game on it because the ps3 has some fantastic games.
