"Hotter than a heatwave"
What I like:
High quality build, blue-ray, value for money considering hardware specs, wifi, bluetooth, hard disk
What I don't like:
Limited games, not being used to full potential, games too expensive
Review:
Could do with more than 256mb RAM, since I will end up installing another OS on it as well. Other than that It is a fantastic system. Would have been nice to have a couple of USB ports at the rear of the machine to keep it tidy looking say for example if an external HD is connected. NTFS support should be included however I am sure this will be updated at some point.
Overall a massive improvement on the PS2.

The rumble function is great, but it should have been bundled with the PS3 in the first place
