Ok Just Give Me the Facts on the Playstation 3 (PS3) Please
The Playstation 3, or ps3 for short has been out since November 11, 2006 and is proving to be oh so popular. Let’s look at just what all the fuss is about.
Ok, the graphics. In a word – stunningly superb – sorry, couldn’t say it in one word. These outstanding graphics are powered by the RSX (Reality Synthesizer) chip made by NVidia and this alone is ultra powerful with over 300 million transistors. The cell processor is apparently 35 times more powerful than the ps2. All this means in our language is magnificent machine.
Now for some facts regarding the ps3.
There are 256MB of RAM, 20 or 60GB of memory (to be increased shortly), the clock speed is 3.2GHz, audio is 5.1 Digital, game format is Blu-Ray, the controllers use Bluetooth, Wi-Fi is included and there is an improved Eye Toy camera! I mean do I need to go on?
The experience of playing on this machine almost surpasses reality as you sit down to get started and without realising it, three hours have passed. Ok, yes I admit, you do need a little self control so as not to be stuck in front of your screen for days on end.
The consoles themselves come in three colours, black, silver and white and all look as cool as the next one.
Now the cost. You may know that the competition, namely Nintendo Wii and the Xbox 360 are around ?175 and ?195 respectively, but the ps3 is around ?299. Yes I know, ever such a slight increase in comparison but this hasn’t deterred many from still purchasing this console as it still one of the top three sellers at the time of writing.
Do your own research before buying of course, but I will certainly say it is worth the money whether you’re a newbie to console gaming or a seasoned pro.
