The PS3 is a gamesystem that is the most hated of any other system (watch i will get so many thumbs down) because it cant be bought by most because its $600. Though the graphics( with the HDMI cord) is a bit better than the XBOX360 even with out it its better. I see advantages of Xbox 360 cheaper good games but the PS3 is a better system. Honestly I dont give a crap about how it looks as long as its better plus I like the look. Plus its got the blu ray.
Stop hatin the PS3 it better get over it.
If I had the money Id get the PS3 but I'll settle for the XBOX 360

The PS3 is a fairly decent multi-media console which tries to do too much and causes the games to take far too much time and money to make, but no console is perfect, yet somehow it has become a good excuse for fanboys to argue constantly with Xbox 360 and Nintendo Wii (two rival games consoles) owners because it seems that people don't have enough things to complain and argue about, and have found out that entertainment systems are a great way to start arguments. An interesting example being that Sony quite wisely changed the original controller shape from "shiny double-penetrator" to "exactly the same as the PS2 controller" but some people refuse to accept this, because their denying of the truth is a clever trick to win arguments somehow.
"hey, i got a PS3, are you getting one as well?"
"fuck you, it's one of the ugliest consoles ever made offering wireless dildos for controllers and the console looks like the next George Foreman grill and it's made by a company (Sony) that puts spyware in their music CD's that makes peoples computers vulnerable to..."
"what the smeg?, I just want to play some damn games, not choose an allegiance in some never-ending fanboy war"

One of the ugliest consoles ever made. Offering wireless dildos for controllers and the console looks like the next George Foreman grill. Made by a company (Sony) that puts spyware in their music CD's that makes peoples computers vulnerable to virus'. Sony also has ilegally advertised their PSP in Chicago by paying someone to make graffiti drawings about the PSP on city walls without permision. Also demostrating anti-360 propaganda by paying its Koyeo employees to spread rumors about the xbox 360 freezing, scratching discs etc. Sony is one of the most dishonest companies, they're are always using disgusting business tactics to bring down their more honest competitors such as Sega. There is always a big gap between what Sony says about their consoles, and what they actually show (such as E3, when they used a computer to make those graphics and say it was their PS3. Sony says other consoles break and explode, but dont mention that over 3 million of their sold PS2's broke, or the fact that a majority of their PSP's have an extremely low battery or dead pixels on the extremely sensitive screen that Sony charges $100.00 to repair.
John: Hey I got me a PS2
Larry: Sweet I got a PSP
John: Cool, but mine isn't working
Larry: Mine has a couple of dead pixels and scratches on the screen.
John: Did you try getting yours fixed?
Larry: Yeah, but Sony wanted me to pay $100.00 to get it repaired.
John: Yeah me too!!!
Larry: Should we still get a PS3?
John: Nah, the controllers look like dildos.

Blu-Ray Player/Game System/Cash Sink

Cost of average Blu-Ray player:
$1,000.00
Cost of average game console:
$300-500.00
Cost of PS3 (combine Blue-ray cost to console cost and then read)
$600.00

Think about that. "It's cheap for what you get."
...and you get what you pay for.

My point is: You're not getting a Blu-Ray player for 600 bucks. You're getting it for considerably less after you factor in all the other parts. More like $300-400. and that leaves the game system coming in at 200-300 dollars.

How good do you think a 300-400 dollar blu-ray player is going to be? If not? How cheaply made is the gaming system?

If a regular blue-ray costs almost double the whole PS3 package, either the player is bare-bones and made of shoddy materials (common for Sony) or all the other Blu-ray players are vastly over-priced, over-hyped and aren't worth the money (very likely).

Either way, Sony is cutting HUGE corners somewhere in this thing.
PS2 had one of the worst DVD players on Earth. Why? Because it was an add on. A secondary feature. Only now the secondary feature over-shadows the main event!

PS3 is made to appeal to gamers looking for an image-enhancing system. The flashier and most expensive = the best.

PS3 is doing so badly and is such a nasty mess, that most game companies have already pulled out of exclusive deals and taken their games multi-platform because of the orgasm of bad ideas, practices and ridiculous greed of Sony.

Sony fanboys praise the system as being the most powerful despite the lack of good games.
Which would hold more value if these same fanboys didn't claim that "power wasn't everything" last generation, when the PS2 was weaker than XBox (and the same for XBox fanboys)but had better games.

Sorta proves they really don't have any particular qualifications for best system, other than "Sony/Microsoft made it"
The PS3 is like a nice car that comes with an airplane.
You want the car but, you have to buy the airplane and the airplane costs way more than the car. Then you need an airport to use it (Hi-Def TV)
The extra feature overshadows the primary concern.
Sony has marketed the PS3 as a computer system.
The problem is, Sony already makes computers! I could buy a Vaio cheaper and do more with it.

A video game console with all sorts of shiny new features such as Blu-Ray players, shimmering pewter controllers, Spider-man text, an analog light that's twice as bright as the PS2's, and maybe a new button or two.

However, it's really expensive (600-700 dollars) which really turns me off about the whole thing, and I'm probably gonna get a nice new Nintendo Wii unless Sony can come to their senses.
Little Johnny:"Osh-Gosh B-GOSH, what console should I get? The PS3, the Xbox 360, or the nice new Nintendo Wii?"
---------------
Little Billy:"The PS3 has a really bright analog light and Spider-man text, go get that"
----------------
Little Johnny:"Wow! What a bright light! Oh man...it's really expensive..."
----------------
Little Billy:"Then maybe you should get an Xbox 360. It's got a super green ring of light that lights up in a certain way depending on your console's orientation!"
----------------
Little Johnny:"But Bill Gates own about fifty-five crystal toilet seats from the profit he's made! That's enough to put fifty-five toilet seats on one toilet!"
----------------
Little Billy:"Okay, behind Nintendo's curtain is a nice new Wii! It's really tiny and the promotional concept picture has a floating disc!"
----------------
Little Johnny:"Cool! I'll get that! Those people are having so much fun throwing their bodies around with that futuristic controller they got thar!"
----------------
Little Billy:"Way to go, Little Johnny!"
