+ Looks good. Brilliant graphics. Love the motion sensor.

- Not many games on release - no football games at all. Bit pricey.

Score 4.0/10

+ Design is good - looks much better than the PS2. Graphics are excellent.

- My son is eight and there are very few games available for him. I assumed that the PS3 would be compatible with most of his games but none of them are although there is a facility to download upgrades from the internet but this is time-consuming particularly for a child that just wants to be able to play his old games. A CD is available from the makers which we have requested but when it comes - if it does come - then perhaps I will judge the PS3 more favourably.

Score 9.0/10

+ Blu-ray disc player built in, wireless networking straight out of the box and 60GB hard drive without having to make any additional purchases unlike xbox 360. Memory stick slots make transfer of music, photos and game saves very easy. One of the best things of all however, is free internet access.

- Very bulky and not very easy to carry to another room in the house, also, updates that need to be installed each month before signing in to the internet are also a problem, especially as it takes quite a while to download them.

Tony, Reading

Score 8.0/10

+ Excellent performance, very good media center capabilities and good looks. Future titles are looking excellent, and there's enough good content now to keep you occupied until the big titles are released.

- The console itself is very large, and occupies quite a lot of space (and it needs room to breathe as like all performance consoles and computers it get's quite warm). If you already have a 360 then many of the games are out for that as well, so perhaps no exclusive titles to lure you in until x-mas.

+ The PS3 is an excellent piece of kit.
The range of titles is a little disappointing, let's hope the promises of many more titles next year materialise.
Roll on Gran Turismo 5 !

Score 8.0/10

+ an excellent system feature packed. a games system and blu ray player for less than the price of a blu ray player.

- still lagging behind the xbox 360 on the game front but hopefully with a little time it should catch up.

+ Simple to use......Looks good.....multimedia capability a big plus.

- Inability to play most PS2 games on the console
Graphics and game play not any better than X box 360........I've got an X box 360 and in my opinion it is a better games console at around half the price.

Expert reviews for Playstation 3 60GB

TechRadar expert review

Priced at ¬£425, the PlayStation 3 has the dubious honour of being the most expensive games machine around. However, calling this glossy black box a games console is doing it a disservice.With the PS3, Sony has actually designed a versatile home entertainment hub, also capable of playing Blu-ray discs, outputting lossless surround sound, storing downloaded music and video, and displaying digital photos. To look at it another way, it's the cheapest Blu-ray player you can buy.Solid groundThe PS3 is a well-designed, solidly built device that's slightly larger than an Xbox 360 but not part…
