PlayStation 3 120 GB Review

I already owned a original 60GB model that had PS2 backward compatibility. I was planning on getting another BD player for my bedroom. I was considering the new Samsung players when this was announced. It’s cheaper and it plays games plus it has a HDD. It was a no-brainer for me. The PlayStation 3 is far and away the best console or for that matter Blu-Ray player you can currently get for its price range. There are many advantages to the 360 and the Samsung BD players, however if I had to have one without the others, my honest and objective recommendation is the new PS3.
Like I’ve said it’s a great bargain for a great system, but it is not without its shortcomings.
-No PS2 Backward compatibility. (important to me but not everyone)
-No Netflix (360 has Netflix and so do the Samsung BD players) (also, important to me but not everyone)
-Backup Utility is awkward (nobody uses FAT32 format anymore and it’s actually a process to even format a HDD that way) (You can do it with Swissknife though)
-Online play isn’t as good as 360’s(but it IS free and is being improved even as I type this…)
-No mic jack on controller (Bluetooth Headsets are not as easy, so people don’t bother. The result is a lot less people are not talking in multi player games. A plus side to this is that you don’t have to listen to a bunch of 13 year olds screaming the N-word and insulting your mom).
I hope I didn’t complain too much about the system it really is a great machine and the best deal out there.
