The PlayStation 3 is, quite possibly, the biggest console gaming system ever.
At twice the size |

A Sharper Controller
At first glance, the PS3's "SIXAXIS" controller looks just like the previous generation, but Sony has made a number of small improvements.
First of all, you can connect as many as seven controllers to the system, although it only ships with one. Although you can use the controller with a cable, it also uses Bluetooth to connect wirelessly to the console.
Attaching via cable charges the controller's non-removeable battery. Sony claims about 30 hours of gameplay on a single change. I have been playing all week and haven't had to reconnect yet.
Unfortunately this cable is only about 4 feet long, so you are on a pretty short leash while charging.
The controller also includes motion-sensing technology |

Much More Than Gaming
Sony designed the PlayStation 3 to be a media center in the living room; it lets you do everything from surf the net to view video slideshows directly from your digital camera.
Perhaps the most interesting non-gaming feature of the PS3 is that is a full-fledged Blu-ray player, and a darn cheap one.
Stand-alone players such as the Samsung BD-P1000 sell for around $1,000. Buy the PS3 and you get a Blu-ray player for nearly half the price, with a gaming platform thrown in for free.
The initial batch of PS3s that went on sale came with a Blu-ray Disc of "Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby," but we were able to try it out with a variety of discs, including "Aeon Flux," "The Italian Job" and even U2's "Rattle and Hum" concert disc.
Although the load times were pretty slow, averaging about 45 seconds, that is true of all high-def players, including units the Samsung BP-P1000 and the Toshiba HD-A1.
The picture quality was stunning. Navigating with the game controller is a bit awkward, but Sony sells a Bluetooth remote that makes it a lot easier.
You can also play video and view pictures directly from a media card or a camera . Just plug in the card and the photos or video appear under the relevant category in the menu system.
Although viewing photos isn't about scrolling through files, the slideshow interface is very cool. It takes your pictures, sorts them by date, and then turns them into virtual prints which cascade across the screen like leaves blown on a windy day.
The PS3 can also play CDs and even rip them to the hard drive in an AAC or MP3 formats at bit rates as high as 320Kbps.
Connect your PS3 to the Internet and you can use it to surf the Web as well. In this case you will really want to connect a USB keyboard for typing in URLs.
The browser isn't as slick as Firefox or Internet Explorer, but it works for basic surfing. On the 58-inch HDTV we tested it on the text was pretty small, but it will do for casual browsing. |

But How Does It Play?
I got five titles with the debug unit: "Resistance: Fall of Man," "NBA 07," "Mobile Suit Gundam: Crossfire," "Genji: Days of the Blade" and "Ridge Racer 7."
In the short time the PS3 has been in the PC Mag Labs, I have played every game. Honestly, the sacrifices I make!
In every game, graphics were nothing short of amazing. Granted, most games played on an HP Pavilion md5880n will look pretty good, but playing in HD adds a lot of eye candy to these games.
"Resistance" looks as if it is going to be the must-have game for the new platform. The game can be played in single-player, double-player or four-player co-op mode.
The PS3 ships with just one controller, but because we have two systems in-house we were able test out the two-player mode. With a wide range of weapons and super-fast gameplay, this should keep fraggers happy for a long time to come.
The premise of "Resistance" is pretty standard; you are the lone survivor fighting off an invasion by the Chimera, a species of "unknown origin" that just happens to be particularly well-armed.
The time is set in an alternate 20th century, but that doesn't stop you from nabbing and wielding the Chimera's futuristic weapons yourself. The graphics here are extraordinarily realistic, but given the game's dark, somber color palette, realism is sometimes underwhelming.
To appreciate the scenes properly, though, I found myself pausing mid-game to take in all the detail. Big mistake! Turns out that's a great way of inviting a mutated Chimera to pounce |

BOTTOM LINE: By combining a great gaming platform with a high-definition Blu-ray player and a host of other features, the Sony PlayStation 3 makes a welcome addition to any living room.
PROS: Killer gaming performance. Blu-ray player. Media card reader. HDMI out with 1080p. Works with PS1/PS2 titles.
CONS: Expensive. HDMI cable sold separately. No more vibrating controller. Hard to find on store shelves.
COMPANY: Sony Corporation of America
EDITOR RATING: Four and a half out of five stars. |

Seen The Real Thing
Sabtu lepas aku dah tgk PS3 60GB version kat on of the kedai jual game kat Pandan Indah. Really impress dengan the design and finishing. But it is bigger than the old PS2. Macam size desktop. But for sure later Sony akan comeout with smaller version... maybe after few years... That console pun belum mod lagi... still virgin, so can only play ori. It takes few months gak untuk tunggu yg dah mod keluar. For me I'm not buying now. Tunggu yg dah mod keluar dulu. Any way PS2 still have a lots of interesting game (Carbon, Bully, W11 etc)
Kedai tu demo game Ridge Racer 7. Graphic was extremly superb and better than PS2. But i wish they play side by side dgn Xbox360... baru lah nampak kehebatannya..
the shop owner suggest kalau nak invest baik terus beli yg 60GB. Sebab ada few extra features yg already include dalam tu compared dgn yg 20GB (selain dari saiz memory yg lebih besar).. tapi aku tak ingat apa yg dia cakap sebab lebih asyik try demo Ridge Racer tu...
okey lah... pas ni aku nak lepak lagi kedai tu tgk PS3 demo... pas tu balik rumah layan Guitar Hero II |
