Sony Playstation 3 Console - 80GB Product Details

Released on 22/08/2008

PlayStation 3 is the industry's most advanced next-generation home console hardware, realised through the combination of Cell and RSX processors.

With the Giga-bit Ethernet and a pre-installed 80GB Hard Disk Drive (HDD) as standard in PS3, PlayStation 3 gamers will be able to download a variety of contents as well as access on-line games and services over the Playstation Network.

Equipped with basic input/output ports, PlayStation 3 supports a broad range of displays from conventional NTSC/PAL standard TVs to the latest full HD (1080i/1080p) flat panel displays, offering PS3 owners the joy of the most advanced computer home entertainment content. For use in living rooms, maximum heat and noise reduction has been achieved with a noise level equivalent to that of the current slim-line PlayStation 2.

With the overwhelming computational power of the Cell processor, PlayStation 3 is capable of playing back content from Blu-ray (BD) disc at a bit rate of multiplex 48Mbps with ease, the maximum bit rate defined in BD standards.

Comes with the new DualShock 3 Controller!The PlayStation 3 80GB model does NOT feature:

  • Backwards Compatibility with PS2 Games
  • Memory Stick Card Readers
  • SACD Playback
  • Ethernet Cable
  • 4 USB Ports, (The PS3 80GB model features 2 USB ports)
  • Sony stamps on PlayStation 4 rumours

    As is always the case when big trade shows loom on the horizon, the internet got all fidgety and excited about the idea that both Microsoft and Sony would be announcing new consoles this year.

    The Consumer Electronics Show kicked off this week with keynote speeches from both companies, but not even a whisper of new hardware. Now both Kaz Hirai, Sony's chief entertainment division overlord, has told everyone to shut up and stop being so silly.

    Backing up Andrew House, Sony's CEO of the PlayStation business who had previously dismissed the rumour, Hirai issued a firm denial in an interview with journalists at CES. �ndy (House) is absolutely right in that we are not making any announcements at E3,�Hirai said. ��e always said a 10-year life cycle for PS3, and there is no reason to go away from that.�/p>

    So if you've been resisting the urge to buy a PS3 because you've heard a replacement is on the way, don't hold your breath.

PS3s are well worth the price tag. High Definition Blu-Ray drive out of the box (for Games and Movies), Photos can be viewed along with Music and Videos. Internet Browser with Flash Player, and all situated on the XMB (Xross Media Bar). Another plus is the fact that any 2.5" SATA Notebook HDD will fit in the PS3 WITHOUT voiding the warranty. (For example my PS3 has 320GB of storage). Also, new and exciting additions are being made such as PlayTV and new software features become available on a regular basis with new Firmware Updates. Finally, FREE Online. Yes, online does have its drawbacks, but you're not paying for it so who cares?!
