Summary: Dobly
Comment: It was pleasing to read that the PS 3 features "Dobly" sound (see specs above). I haven't heard of
Dobly since Spinal Tap!

Summary: rather disappointing!
Comment: Bought this expecting great things and to be honest was a little disappointed.

Its
great for playing blu ray dvds, excellent gameplay and quality picture yet the reason I only give it
three stars is the disappointing load up times and the lack of online gaming.

You stand
for three hours in the pouring rain for that long awaited game at midnight, get home in the wee
small hours and hey presto wait for an hour while the damn thing uploads and downloads. M mate
meanwhile is an hour into his game on his xbox 360.

I have to wait for my mates to drop
in for a multiplayer game, my mate plays it all the time on the xbox 360.

Had sony not
won the war in the hd versus blue ray I know where I would have invested my money.

I
feel a little let down to say the least and I dont mind admitting annoyed, its a bit like the pepsi
versus coke war one tastes better to whoever it is that prefers it. I would only half recommend
this to anyone because of the above reasons online play and download time, if you can get past those
two things then its truly a nice piece of kit.

Summary: Excellent console that sadly failed after two months.
Comment:
I have purchased two Ps3 in the last three months,
for Husband and for son. One from
Amazon the other
from Toysrus.

One of them failed, (The one from Toysrus,
although
that's most probably not relevant), and I believe
it was the disc
reader.

It does not do anything after putting in a game or dvd,
there's just a
continuous loading bubble in top right corner.

Sony collected it and replaced it with a
refurbished one
within two days,which is rather annoying when the one we
had was
externally in perfect condition, and the refurbished
one is badly scuffed and scratched all
over the top.

It's now a matter of keeping our fingers crossed that this
does
not happen again, although after an Internet search,
this is not an uncommon problem. />

Apart from all of that, the Ps3 is a fantastic console, that
I give five
stars to for the brilliant gaming experience alone.

UPDATE
4/11/08:

The refurbished model has now also completely
failed after a couple of
months use, with the
same problem as the first one - failed blueray
reader. />
Sony will repair this model. They said they know
there is a problem with these,
which they are
working on.

I hope they sort it before my warranty runs out,

otherwise I will feel ripped off.

Summary: SIMPLY THE BETTER CONSOLE
Comment: having now owned 5 xbox360s and having every single one of them break down on me after 1 month of
owning i decided to take the plunge and go for the ps3, and boy am i glad i did, this machine is
simply fantastic in every aspect, yes its been stripped down, but still with what you get it already
is a real rival to the 360 and will soon overtake the 360 as the main console kids and adults alike
will want, i hear people moaning about there only being a 40gb hard drive, well iv had the console
for roughly 6 months and there has never been an issue about space, the graphics on hi def are spot
on and i see no differance on assassins creed having played both the 360 and ps3 versions, and as
for this screen tearing?, id love one of you to come round and show me just where this is as iv seen
none of this, the ps3 games are growing and though short of the 360s there is plenty out there to
keep you going, online play isnt as good as the 360 yet, but it is improving, all in all i cant find
fault with anything about this console, there is no way i would ever dream of going back to the 360,
doingg so would be like playing russian roulette as to weather it breaks down or not, iv owned 5 and
each one has stopped recognising disks after a month of purchase, the ps3 never breaks down, doesnt
over heat like the 360-or frying pan whichever you prefer to call it.

SIMPLY WORTH
EVERY EXPENSIVE PENNY IT COSTS - BUY ONE OF MISS OUT IT REALLY IS THAT GOOD!!!.
