PROCESS THAT: IT PERFORMS 1.8 TRILLION CALCULATIONS PER SECOND
The PLAYSTATION3 systems Cell Broadband Engine is the very thing that game developers have always dreamt about. Its unique multi-processing unit design represents a tour de force in parallel processing. The ability to do more of everything at the same time means more enemies, more AI, more explosions, and more realistic game play. Game play
that takes into account ragdoll physics and keyframe animation, enemy AI behaving unpredictably, glass cracking
based on the size of the object that impacted it, and individual flecks of dust in a beam of sunlight to create a more
believable and unique experience. The Cell Broadband Engine has the muscle and horsepower to move beyond artificial
intelligence. This is the power that is the digital soul of the PLAYSTATION3 system.
- 1 Central Processing Unit (CPU) and 8 Synergistic Processing Units (SPU)
- 40 times faster than the chip that runs PlayStation 2
- Capable of running at speeds at 3.2 GHz
- Memory bandwidth: 25.6 GBytes per second
IT DREAMS IN BLU-RAY
Dreams are boundless. Their images are expansive and their colors inspired. Up until now, game developers have
been dreamers cursed to dream with limitations. Forced to compromise their creative content for precious disc space.
Then came the advent of Blu-ray. Just as the DVD offered a technological leap over CDs, the Blu-ray disc is the next
leap forward in the advancement of data storage and high definition entertainment. But not as a simple evolution
of an existing format. Blu-ray is something entirely different, a revolution catapulting the high definition gaming
and movie experience into unknown frontiers. A revolution that finally frees game developers and moviemakers from
the constraints of storage space. And allows them to dream in Blu-ray.
- Five to ten times the storage capacity of traditional DVDs
- 50 GB BD vs. 9 GB DVD
- Pristine picture quality with the capability for ultimate
high definition1
- Recordable formats with unsurpassed storage capacity
to store your digital world (photographs, home videos,
music libraries, and data)
- DVD compatibility so existing DVD collections can be
enjoyed on Blu-ray hardware2

4 of 5 Good PS3 but could be better Thursday, February 26, 2009 Brandon Moorhouse from Atlanta, Tx
I will keep this short the system is great one the best but lacks playback value for ps2 games it will say about 85 think more like on the line of 65% it does have the 85% it's that most of the games it can play freeze on ya within a certian amount of time in playing them there are updates that should fix but sadly not all of them right now so if you are looking to replace a 60gb with this one don't as simple as that!

5 of 5 This gift was a hit! Saturday, December 27, 2008 A Gamer from Warwick, RI
My husband has been bugging me all season for a PS3 system. After doing a lot of online research, this was the best overall since it is backwards compatible as well as has the 4 ports. Apparently the newer systems offer no backwards compatibility and have been reduced to two ports. This is surprising to me since Guitar Hero obviously needs multiple ports to play all the stuff at one. Anyway, he was very excited to receive this gift! His only issue so far is getting the internet connection to work. I got the system at a great price before it jumped up to over $600! So, I was certainly happy about that! Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 By far, the best video game system and game I've e Wednesday, December 24, 2008 TP from Lincoln, Nebraska
The Metal Gear Solid 4 Playstation 3 bundle is amazing! From the graphics, to the storyline, to the gameplay, Metal Gear Solid 4 is great. It's hard to put the controller down once you start playing. I was not a huge fan of Metal Gear previously, but I would recommend this game to anyone who likes video games. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Great Investment for the next age of games to come Thursday, September 18, 2008 A Gamer from Morrisville NY
I'm very pleased with my system, I had originally ordered it just to play the 4th game of Metal Gear Series. I had unpacked it delivered to my home and dropped off on campus and this is the only thing i disliked about the console was its weight because i had the honor of hauling it around till i got back to dorm (but no reason to move it anymore so no worries XD). Other than that everything ran fine right out of the box, installed games and then enjoyed the OS for an hour to see the features then played the game and loved it. Was this review helpful?
1 of 1 customers found this review helpful. 5 of 5 PS3 all thw way Tuesday, September 02, 2008 Beleg from Space Coast, Florida
Games. Blu-ray - 1080p. Internet, photo & video... This system has it all. Enough said! Spend the extra $20 - $25 for a Blu-ray remote and don't waste your money on a standalone BR player. Was this review helpful?
