Good But Not At All The Best
PostedMay 1, 2012
At first the playstation was ok. Then playstion was hacked and was offline for a bit. Never dropped the controller yet the back right bumper somehow popped off :( Online play is sort of laggy which is to be expected as its free. Updates take about a lifetime and happen frequently. I hate that! If your looking for something that just works for the most part playstation 3 will do. About a month ago I switched to Xbox 360. OMG friggin amazing! Private chats and partys. Lol and no my controller hasnt broke. Only dropped it once. Very seldom does it have lag. If it does its cuz of another players bad internet conection. You have to pay for Xbox Live but its totally worth it. So much more content and applications. Graphics are in hd if the game itself supports it which most do not. I am quite happy with this one. Ive always hated Xbox but now it seems playstation needs to step up its game. Never switching back tho. Oh and another thing. I have to say that if your really into gaming then this beauty is for you......and me lol

great system, aside from no ps2 backward compatabi
PostedApril 26, 2012
i bought this system brand new back when they first came out with slims, at the time i didnt know they couldnt play ps2 games, spent hours playing games and downloading things, paying ps1 games, listening to music, watching movies, etc. it has never given me any trouble, never had ylod or anything, but extremely bummed my 300 bucks (thats what it costed for a 120 gb console at the time) didnt allow me to play ps2 games too, but not too long ago they started making ps2 collections on discs and putting ps2 games for download on psn so in a way, now you can play SOME ps2 games, a very slim selection, if you got the right copy of twisted metal, you can download twisted metal black, and psn has games like the god of war, devil may cry, and jak and daxter series available for hd download, while they have games like bloodrayne, maximo ghosts to glory and some others for download as original ps2 games. maybe eventually theyll upload all ps2 games for availability.

Hard drive breaks easily
PostedApril 15, 2012
I barely had this system for 2 years (not even) and without warning my hard drive breaks and all my memory is lost! My ps3 wasn't even acting slow or unusal but suddenly my game froze for awhile so i was forced to turn it off. Now I can't even turn it on because when i do the system says we can will fix evrthing once its finished loading. But when it finishs the system just keeps reloading the same thing! Now I'll probably get less money to turn it in!!!! >:( I took good care of my system too but Sony obvisously didn't make good system!!! DON'T BUY IT WITHOUT A LONG WARRANTY!!!!!!!!!

Wouldn't be a gamer without it!

Look let me get straight to the point about this console, its great. No,wait not great what's the word EPIC!!!! Yes, EPIC. Look the Playstation 3 has the best 1st party games in the industry. What can compare to the likes of Uncharted or inFAMOUS. Nothing,yes nothing. Also this systems graphics are unmatched. Now, I'm not saying that the other consoles graphics suck I'm merely saying that they're a bit better. Another thing that this baby has to offer is its Blu-Ray player. The best part about this is that a Blu-Ray disk (PS3) can hold more memory than an HD DVD (Xbox 360). That is why this is such a EPIC system.
