PlayStation 3 Slim Review

October 18, 2010 Leave a comment

I have always been an XBOX fan and gamer but i thought i need to take a quick glance at Sony’s new PS3 slim , which apparently looks very neat and affordable. Frankly i have to admit i’m always favored the XBOX 360 but I have tried to always get my hands on other consoles.

Now i have the choice between the PS3 slim and a Wii but the play station was an easy choice for me as it had more games i would enjoy. Not only did i look for high quality playstation 3 titles it has like Gran Turismo, God of War and MGS4 which are just a of few of those i was totally dying to play, and then i got my hands on Drakes Fortune which i spent the first 2 weeks playing daily, its such a great game. Not only is it a serious gaming machine but an amazing bluray movie player having such a great reputation its really makes a playstation 3 great value for money. Bluray movies are still expensive yet , but hoping with time they become more affordable.

When you open you playstation 3 box for the fist time, its really a piece of black art, glossy black makes it look just spectacular but it get scratched really easily. New matt black color give it a new touch, making it last much longer than the older PS3 systems that just seem so scratched.

Its recommended to get the 120GB slim PS3 as its much smaller and quicker. We all know that in electronics terms , newer hardware is definitely much better even if the specs are still the same as the older systems. Plus you will probably get a few new games with a new console, like GT5 or Metal Gear Solid.

What makes the playstation 3 a better system over my xbox 360 is that you get a bunch unique games that give you another special experience that’s just different that the PS3. Its hard to say that the PS3 is better but its also hard to say the xbox wins, they are just two different machines. PS3 controllers are much more comfortable for me that any other controller, plus the dual shock 3 makes it such an interesting feature when playing most video games.

With none being the better game console, i will prefer personally the xbox 360 because of personal issues, although i have had a hard time fighting the three red lights of death. playstation 3 is a strong machine giving more than just normal graphics games but a true HD digital experience. Xbox LIVE is just out beaten, PS3 comes nothing close to that, despite that the ps community is free, the Xbox 360 has just the best functionality in overall. Some games the xbox 360 controller is just the best like most of the first man shooter video games. Play Gears of War is just phenomenal on the xbox 360 using the dual stick controllers.

If you can afford it , get the PS3 Slim and the XBOX 360 Elite, choosing among with would be just a tough call for an objective gamer. The price is affordable, video games as of great quality as the xbox and you do get a free blue disc player thats just worth $200. It basically does everything the xbox 360 does and that’s why i totally love my playstation 3 now
