The PS3 Powerhouse

If you are looking for advice on the best system, look no farther.

There have been tons of opinions on which console is the best. The X-Box, Wii, and PS3 are battling it out right now. The PS3 has a new breathtaking graphics system, while the Wii has new motion sensing technology. The X-Box brought nearly nothing new to the market except for the upgraded graphics. (It runs on HD DVD) But if you put the Wii and X-Box together you would get the PS3. The PS3 has new Blu Ray technology to make your games look better than X-Box 360. The PS3 also has the new motion sensing capabilities. (Like the Wii)

Look at the X-Box 360's internet capabilities. It is very good for online gaming. The PS3 doesn't have as good online gaming as the X-Box's internet, but it is getting there. The PS3's is free, while the X-Box 360's is $50 a year. The X-Box doesn't give you internet access. If you want to you can go on the internet straight from your PS3. You can go on Google and even play some games.

Another handy thing about the PS3 is that you can download (for free) or buy Linux. The PS3 has the ability to support Linux software. Something the X-Box hasn't been able to grab a hold of. Another thing the PS3 can do and the X-Box can't is video, music, and photo storage. You can go on the internet with your PS3 and download a music video for free off of Google or download some photos from Google. Then after you have done that you can make your photo your wallpaper. The PS3 far surpasses the X-Box 360.

The Wii is just an ant compared to the PS3. The Wii can display picture of up to 480p and the PS3 can reach up to 1080i. That is almost triple the amount. Everyone thought the Wii was something with its motion sensing technology. The PS3 also has motion sensing technologies. The Wii has the system of making your own avatar called a Mii. The PS3 doesn't have that, yet.

The spring of 2007 comes “Home”. A 3-D interactive world where you make your own avatar, create your own content and post in the virtual world, and decorate your own apartment. If you put youtube, myspace, the Nintendo's Mii system, and X-Box's achievement system you would get about half of home. It is an awesome virtual world specifically for the PS3 ( To learn more about home, search home on youtube).

Right now the X-Box has more games, and the PS3's game libraries is thin but give it six more months and the PS3 will have the best games out there like, Home, Mgs4, Killzone 2, and little big planet. The X-Box has Good games like halo 3, and bioshock, but in six months the PS3 will have the best games. The Wii has no really good games coming out besides super smash bros. The PS3 may be the expensive one for 500 to 600 bucks (500=60 gig 600= 80 gig), but it is the right choice.

I agree i think the ps3 is the best system and it is worth the money.

The playstation 3 was one of the best products to hit my home entertainment. Now I can't get those damn kids out of my way. Warhawk has been a great game, while H.S. has been a great story. A sad one too. Get a PS3!

The PS3 goes up to 1080p ( NTSC Standerd, 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, 1080p. And the PS3 is the only console with uncompressed 7.1 audio.

I agree totally. Except the PS3 can disply 1080p even. Not just 1080i.

This is the worst written article I've seen in a while. The X-box brought more than just an upgrade in graphics. It does not run on HD-DVDs, it runs on DVDs. However, it will play HD-DVD movies. Blu-ray Discs do not give you better graphics. They allow more space to design games. As a result they can pay attention to better graphics, but the discs themselves don't do this. Dvds have the same graphic capabilities as Blu-ray, it just has limited space. You can't compare the motion technology of the Wii with the PS3, they are not even the same technology. The PS3 does not "far surpass" the Xbox. I think the PS3 will surpass in the long run, but right now it's about even (pros and cons on both sides). PS3 can display up to 1080P, not 1080i. And to say 1080i is triple the quality than 480p is pure ignorance. Also, 1080 is also accomplished by the Xbox. Home comes out the spring of 2008, not 2007. This whole article is poorly written and has several errors. If you are trying to become a journalist, you need to do better than this. Don't get me wrong, I'm a PS3 fan for life, but don't spread lies.

I agree with all of you in a way. The article was poorly written, but it's base message was good. I myself am a PS3 fan, and owner. The motion sensing technologys arn't the same, and don't do the same thing. But pretty much all the 360 did was increase it's graphics. And that thing about Blu-Rays giving you better graphics.... thats true. A Blu-Ray movie runs at 1080p, while a SD DVD can't do that without stretching. The 360 may claim to have the 1080 power, but the fact is, theyre starting to realize that they just can't keep up. Halo 3 was proven to only be able to run at 620p, and was streatched to make it look like 720p, just because thats what the 360 topped out at.

ps3 will give you MORE, xbox CANNOT say that... all that needs to
be said...

Did they mention that the XBOX dies after 6 months of usage with the ring of death? POS...
#9 by LatinLover, Oct 6, 2007
This article is not that accurate but the main point is pretty clear. The PS3 is going to surpass the Wii and Xbox 360 due to lack of any good games coming out when Halo 3 was released that was it for 360 its now going to go all down hill for the system. I kno ppl will say that am wrong that they will have other good games,and it will be good but only good,though the PS3 will have GREAT games.

w00t for the truth
#11 by false, Oct 7, 2007
the ps3 has graphics and blu-ray, thats about it. all of its good games (grand theft auto, assassins creed, etc) are no longer exclusives, most of its big hits (warhawk, lair) were no where near as good as hoped (read the reviews), and it's motion control technology is pretty much just a gimmick. go pc, xbox, or wii, but not ps3.

false go burn in hell
#13 by Reviews, Oct 25, 2007
@ false. I don't care about reviews. There are a lot of games that received horrible reviews that I thought were great games. I enjoyed them a lot. I have also played a lot of games that got great reviews that I thought sucked. A lot of the people who do the reviews are reviewing the games compared to what they feel the system is capable of. If any game from the wii came on the 360 or PS3 they would get horrible reviews but the Wii would have great reviews. This just means that the developers are still learning how to develop for a system that they do not even know the full power of. If all you care about is reviews then you will miss out on a lot of great games.
#14 by Idiots, Oct 28, 2007
Wow, you guys are stupider then i thought. What great games are coming out for ps3. Currently its highest game is a 360 game they mapped over to the ps3. OOOOOH look at our graphics, and the way we tried to copy every other system. They also the console 100 dollars more expensive thanks to bluray. And one final thing, if the Ps3 is soo great, how come it its loosing so much money. It had terrible losses q1 and q2, and doubled it q3 and q4.
#15 by smart, Jan 19, 2008
@ idiots , yes you are idiot fanboys for saying that. its sales are growing faster and faster, also its exclusive games are way grreater than u think... just look at ratchet and clank also uncharted, resistance was the best release game for any system ive ever played
#16 by jack, Feb 16, 2008
ps3 is better so dont say that the xbox 360 is better cause its not
#17 by kav94, Aug 25, 2008
that article was poorly written. blu ray does not necessarily give better graphics but gives developers more space to increase the size and quality of the game. by the way i do own a ps3
