Sony PlayStation 3 (40GB)
Sony, finally, to criticism that its next generation console is too expensive, reducing the price of the original 60 GB model at £ 350, and the introduction of this new 40GB unit, at a cost of £ 300
In addition to the hard drive less, the differences are minimal. Its only saving 50 pounds to lose two of the four-port USB, Multi-Card Reader format, a single Ethernet cable and the ability to play the disc SACD. Is this the end of this list, we would like to say that there is no competition - the unit is cheaper.
There is another gap, but not play PlayStation 2 games. This was achieved through a combination of chips and software, but Sony decided to save money on the card, and let the PS3 games on your stand. This may be the resolution, only the online multiplayer shooter Warhawk has proved an impressive title, while the Xbox 360, Microsoft has several trips a priority at this time.
Of course, this lack of backwards compatibility does not matter if you do not have a lot of PS2 games, in this case, it remains a brilliant multimedia home entertainment. In the 40-GB hard disk should be large enough for most users, and certainly the cheapest Blu-Ray player on the market.
