Q. What are some of the disadvantages of the PS3?
A. Real disadvantages are hard to find with a system that is so
valuable, but people have been able to come up with a few. For one,
the fact that the PS3 supports a wide variety of storage media and that
can create confusion on the best medium to store and transfer
information.
Some people think that the price is too high, but that is addressed
above. Yes the Nintendo Wii is cheaper, but it offers very little as of
now compared to the PS3, in terms of a complete multimedia
experience. If you're looking for fun family gaming and nothing else,
the Wii does the trick at a cheaper cost.
Also, some people think that Blu-ray Disc format has yet to take off as
a standard format, and that HD-DVD might end up taking over the
whole market, leaving you with a worthless DVD player. This
potential outcome, combined with the high cost of the Blu-ray DVD
player might cause Sony to halt PS3 production.
Q. Which Console is better? The PS3, Xbox 360, or Nintendo
Wii?
A. Better depends on what you're looking for. If you want the most
advanced hardware, then go for the PS3. If you're a Nintendo fan, and
enjoy their own gaming line with games like Mario and Zelda, you
should get the Nintendo Wii. The Xbox 360 offers a great
combination of price to performance as well. It all depends on what
you are looking for in a system, and whether that system supports the
particular games that you want to play. Just know that no other
system on the market is as versatile in hardware than the PS3. If you
have a game preference that can only be found on Nintendo of Xbox
