Mark Robbins asked:
Microsoft has tried to catch up with some of the titans of the gaming world,
such as Sony with the release of the Xbox 360. The Xbox 360 offers many
new features that players will love:
Free limited subscription to online gaming – This allows players who have not been participating in online gaming a chance to see what is available at no charge. All Xbox 360s come with Live-aware – This means you can get a friend invite or see who is online and what they are playing from your Xbox 360. The button in the middle of the controller makes all this very easy. It offers great media features including listening to music while you play games, the ability to create custom playlists and your own custom soundtracks, the ability to rip songs from original CDs to your Xbox 360 and stream music from your MP3 player to your Xbox 360. You can also create slideshows of photos to share with friends and family. Xbox 360 has a wireless controller. No more tripping over the wires, although it can support two wired controllers through USB ports in the front. The game console is not only great for gamers, but developers as well. It is a powerful machine with an unprecedented amount of RAM – a feature added on the request of developers.
But, Xbox 360 still has some problems that need to be worked out:
Their Japanese third party support is lacking – While some Japanese developers offer software for the Xbox, it is small in number when compared to what the same developers offer for Playstation. While the controller is wireless, it eats batteries rather quickly. Standard alkaline batteries only last about thirty hours, so if you buy Xbox 360, invest in rechargeable batteries to save yourself some money in the end. When they were set up in WalMart stores before days before the launch, many suffered what is known as the Xbox “360 screen of death,” an error screen. The Xbox 360 had also had some problems with overheating. Some report the Xbox 360 system as being very noisy when playing an Xbox 360 disc.
Many people are eagerly awaiting the release of Playstation 3, which may
occur as soon as November of this year. It has been said that the
Playstation 3 has an outward feel (which allows it to stand vertically or
horizontally on its own), as opposed to the Xbox 360’s inward feel. It is
a much larger console than the Playstation 2 and closer to the original size of
the Xbox. Game discs slide into the console like CDs slide into a car
player.
Here are a few attractive features of the Playstation 3:
It is always on, so you can access your Playstation 3 from anywhere as long as you have an Internet connection. With a Playstation Portable, you can connect to your Playstation 3 and transfer media such as music and movies. The Playstation 3 appears to be much more powerful than that Xbox 360, Ninetindo Revolution, and Playstation 2. Initial reports say it will be twice as fast as the Xbox 360. Developers and publishers of over 230 games have announced titles for Playstation 3 games.
Here are a few reported cons and problems with the Playstation 360:
Comes with only 256 MB, less than the 512 MB the Xbox 360 will come with. Their Playstation Network Platform (the online service) is still in development and may not be ready by the time Playstation 3 is released. The launch of the Playstation 3 has already been delayed due to disk problems.
Both the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 are incredible gaming consoles. It
seems that although the Xbox 360 came out first, the best bet is still the
Playstation 3. The strongest point of the Xbox 360 is its online
functionality, but Sony may be working on something similar to Xbox Live right
now. However, Microsoft is closing the gap with Xbox 360 and probably will
eventually catch up with Sony in gaming consoles. For some users, it may
come down to something as simple as which one is more compatible with the games
they already own.

Samuel Herrick asked:
Sony Play Station a 32-bit video game console was produced by Sony Computer Entertainment in December 1994 marking a revolution in the field of video games. It was the first of the series of console and hand-held game devices. The PlayStation didn’t miss the chance to generate interest in the market with a lot of advertisement campaigns. The PlayStation logo was designed by Manabu Sakamoto, who also designed the logo for Sony’s VAIO computer products. The PlayStation is considered as one of the longest production runs in the video game industry.
This electronic game console had to undergo a variety of variants including the gradual reduction in the number of external connectors on the unit. SCPH-900x series is the last revision to the original PlayStation with the same hardware
Early gamers used to experience skipping of full-motion video or dreaded physical “ticking” noises from the PlayStations. It was due to the poorly placed vents that caused overheating in the plastic moldings inside the console creating knock-on effects with the laser assembly. Later Sony came out with “Dual Shock”, including a controller with 2 analog sticks and a built in force-feedback feature. Colored blue was another version of Sony Play station, followed by colored green. The PlayStation’s capabilities were later expanded with the installation of a modchip, which allowed the playing of games from other regions.
Net Yaroze was introduced as another version of the PlayStation, which was much expensive. It was found to be lacking the features the full developer suite provided. The user found it difficult to officially make actual game discs as the amount of space was small. Sony launched the smallest version of its Play Station, PS one in 2000, which was about one-third smaller than the original PlayStation. Later it also released a small LCD screen and an adaptor that can be used in cars.

If you are looking to get a PS3 60gb or 80gb bundle, you may want to know what all comes in the bundle as each one can be different depending on where you buy your PS3. The first and most important factor when buying a new PS3 is that you will have to choose how big you want the hard drive to be where all your data will be stored. It works just like a computer as Sony now makes a 60, or 80gb hard drive. Obviously the bigger the hard drive, the more data you can store.
The ps3 bundle will depend on where you are purchasing the Playstation 3 because each seller typically has the ability to bundle different items together such as select games, extra controllers, and more.
The most popular ps3 bundle usually comes with the following items:
1. The Sony ps3 itself is now available in either a 60 or 80 gigabytes of storage for your data.
2. Extra games including sports, role playing, strategy and more. Many sellers will use a variety of different games in the bundle to make sure there is a game for everyone.
3. Extra controller. Typically the ps3 will come with one controller, but the bundle will include an extra controller or two for multiplayer games.
4. Wireless Bluetooth headset. This is handy for playing games online so you can talk to an opponent without having to hold a device in your hand to talk.
5. Upgraded cables. Sometimes sellers will include premium cables like 24k gold if you are using an HD system so the picture will look crystal clear for you.
When buying a PS3 60gb bundle the above items are the most popular when a seller makes up the package. It’s a great idea to check around to different sellers to see what your options are depending on what types of extras you may want for your new system.

Cristian Stan asked:
The PS3 is a great video gaming console and although it may show some defects, it is far better than most consoles being sold today. Sony has been continuously finding ways to ensure a more improved console and this is what they have achieved so far with the PS3. However, as with all things, you cannot expect anything perfect and the PS3 is no exception.
Problems with the PS3 are usually video-related issues such as not playing old versions of CDs and DVDs. Additionally, Blue Ray disk lens seems to encounter problems when it becomes dusty so it will not play or it will give you ‘bumpy videos’ that just do not run smoothly. To address this concern, what you need to first is to clean the lens using CD and DVD cleaners or you can make use of regular alcohol.
Wipe it using microfiber cloth or similar material. This usually fixes the problem right away. For videos that seem blurry, what you can do is to adjust the video resolution by setting it to the right configuration. People seem to overlook this and end up complaining about an awful resolution when it could easily be fixed by minor adjustments. Once this is done, you will notice that the resolution becomes amazingly clear.
Problems related with the PS3’s video capability are often easy to fix. You just need to understand what cause them, and know the basic steps to resolve the issue. Correct diagnosis can lead to a more accurate solution to your PS3 video-related problems, and of course, wrong diagnosis can lead to bigger problems. Learn more on how to fix your PS3 on your own; you will find that it has more advantages than you think.

Antti K asked:
Are you interested in purchasing a next generation console, but you’re not sure which one you’d like to buy? Are you unsure of the features of each? You’ve come to the right place. Next generation consoles such as the Xbox 360, Sony PS3, and the Nintendo Wii all have different features and are made to appeal to different audiences. You can read on below to find some of the very important differences and whether they suit your needs or not.
The Wii: The Wii is made by Nintendo. It features WiFi and a different control system which is used by attaching a sensor bar to the top of your TV. This sensor bar uses lasers to determine the position of the Wii-mote in your hand, and in turn, you can perform different actions in games with different movements of the Wii-mote. The Nintendo Wii has been hailed as the console to get gamers moving again, with several fitness minded attachments, including Wii Fit. The games on Wii are usually geared towards children and young adults which offer fun for the whole family, however, more serious games such as Call of Duty and Resident Evil are being produced for use on the Wii. If you’re looking for a unique gaming experience you can’t obtain from any other gaming system, the Nintendo Wii might be for you.
The 360: The Xbox 360 is made by Microsoft as was the first of the next generation consoles to be released. It features many improvements over the first generation xbox, including a better controller and Xbox LIVE, which is Microsoft’s content delivery system. Using Xbox LIVE, you can rent movies, buy additional games, and coming soon, stream movies from Netflix through your Xbox 360. The Xbox 360 includes a detachable hard drive which can hold games, movies, and music, which is a plus over the Wii as its memory blocks are built in. If you’re a serious gamer who plays hardcore mature games, you might be interested in the Xbox 360 for titles such as Halo 3, Gears of War, and Assassin’s Creed.
The PS3: The Sony Playstation 3 was the last of the consoles released and remains the most expensive. One of the factors which figures in to the price of the Sony PS3 is the ability to play Blu Ray movie disks. These disks are also what most Playstation 3 games use as their format, so given the processing power and the huge capacity of Blu Ray, Sony PS3 games are able to reach an unparalleled quality in visual experience. Gamers that are interested in several of the PS3 exclusive titles like Metal Gear Solid 4 and God of War 3 might want to check out the Playstation 3. It also includes a hard drive of varying capacities, however it is not as easily accessible as the Xbox 360’s hard drive. The Playstation Network also offers free game demos and the ability to purchase games online, similar to Microsoft Live service.
As you can see, each of these consoles offers unique features which can only be found with that brand. If you’re an adventurous gamer, you might consider owning more than one of these consoles.
