CNET Asia Review
Excellent
The good: Swanky design; all games in HD; PSP-like user-friendly interface; plays Blu-ray and upscales DVDs to 1080p; built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth; 80GB hard drive; wireless and optional force feedback controllers; backward-compatible with PS2 and PS1 titles; built-in memory card readers; online play is free; onboard Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD decoder. 8.8
out of 10View score
The bad: A USB port on the back would've been nice; glossy black finish is a fingerprint magnet; runs hot and noisy; power guzzler.
The bottom line: The 80GB Sony PlayStation 3 is still the most expensive next-gen game console, but its swanky design and bevy of features make it great value even at S$799.

"The best gaming console ever..."
Apr 6, 2008Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: Bluray Player, Great Games software, Free online gaming, Internet Browser, easily to size up HDD, mutimedia device, Wifi
Cons: Somewhat bulky, Dust magnet, not support DTS HD 7.1
Opinion:
PS3 is the best gaming console ever. PS3 not only as gaming console but also multimedia in our home with cheap price if we compared the value we get (US$399 for PS3 40GB and Bluray player and multimedia device).
There are many great games (Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, Uncharted Drake, Heavenly Sword, Call of Duty 4, Folk Lore, etc) and promising games title such as Metal Gear Solid 4 and Final Fantasy XIII, exclusively on PS3.
Also we can play online for free using PSN (Playstation Network) unlike others, Xbox360. Soon, there will be "Home", Playstation online community, where we can meet others on 3D world (simulation like "The Sims series".
PS3 can also be used as Bluray Player, next gen DVD, which delivered crystal clear image and sound using HDMI.
And please be noted that PS3 is the only Bluray player that can be updated easily using internet connection to the newest bluray profile (recently ... Read more
