Let’s Not Forget Playstation 3
By John Milligan

Let’s not forget the Playstation 3 please. Yes, I know - all the talk these days is the Wii, Wii, Wii. I’m not anti-Wii at all, but come on, the ps3 is super cool as well isn’t it.

Yes, I know that the Nintendo Wii outsells the ps3 and the xbox 360. Wii has sold nearly 25 million to date, the ps3 13 million and the xbox 360 19 million! Pretty enormous sales figures don’t you think.

As super cool and packed with fun and excercises as the Wii is, it has 2 minor let-downs which, incidentally, Joe Public doesn’t seem to bothered about and thats great news for Nintendo themselves.

The first is the graphics - I think everyone accepts that they are not as superior as the ps3, but again this has not put anyone off purchasing the Wii.

The second is the low storage capacity of the Wii at 512mb flash memory. The ps3 has, depending on which model you get, around 60GB - wow, massive difference there.

The Playstation 3 will certainly not be forgotten in our time - oh no. 13 million people cannot be wrong.

The graphics are truly superb and when in use the console remains cool or only very luke warm, not heating up like some other consoles.

The ps3 just hums quietly while you play it - not so with the xbox 360 as you may know.

The ps3 is Blu-Ray compatible - great news especially as all games will be coming out on Blu-Ray disc as well.

Did you know that if you have a PSP, you can connect it via wi-fi to your ps3’s hard drive - lesson to learn? - no need to sell your PSP.

There you go, I said the ps3 was superb didn’t I. Nobody can argue with that.

The only real thing you can argue about is which console you think is best, the Wii, ps3 or the xbox 360?

Yeah, I know, difficult one isn’t it?
