Manufacturer's Description
PlayStation 3 brings advanced next-generation technology to home console hardware, realised through the combination of Cell and RSX processors.

With the Giga-bit Ethernet and a pre-installed 80GB Hard Disk Drive (HDD) as standard in PS3, PlayStation 3 gamers will be able to download a variety of contents as well as access on-line games and services over the Playstation Network.

Equipped with basic input/output ports, PlayStation 3 supports a broad range of displays from conventional NTSC/PAL standard TVs to the latest full HD (1080i/1080p) flat panel displays, offering PS3 owners the joy of the most advanced computer home entertainment content with the new DualShock 3 Controller as standard. For use in living rooms, maximum heat and noise reduction has been achieved with a noise level equivalent to that of the current slim-line PlayStation 2.

With the overwhelming computational power of the Cell processor, PlayStation 3 is capable of playing back content from Blu-ray (BD) disc at a bit rate of multiplex 48Mbps with ease, the maximum bit rate defined in BD standards.

the game is alot of fun i like it alot

Awesome Bundle.
Played the demo of this game, and it's VERY good. Think GTA IV meets Marvel Comics...

The game is getting hot reviews, (90%+), and the PS3 well, it's a PS3, it's a awesome bit of kit, and incredible value for money when you take into account all the things it can do.

Flawed Brilliance
The PS3 does everything the Xbox and Wii do: only better, plus it's got a Blu-ray player.

However, less than two years after purchase (for £420) my Blu-ray component has stopped working. Sony wants £99 to fix it. They think this is acceptable. Do you? I know I don't.
