Yet the 120GB system manages to improve on this with its 45nm version of the processor, which although running at the same 60+nm speed as previous PS3 versions, uses less energy. This makes the unit's smaller size and quieter fan possible. Along with the traditional AV and composite connections, the 120GB system also boasts an HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) port, which delivers uncompressed, unconverted digital picture and sound to compatible high-definition TVs and projectors. (The system is capable of 128-bit pixel precision and 1080p resolution for a full HD experience) This console also provides for an extreme sound experience by supporting Dolby Digital 5.1, DTS 5.1, as well as Linear PCM 7.1. Finally, it features cross connectivity with your PC network and PlayStation Portable (PSP) and its pre-installed, 120GB hard disc drive allows you to save games as well as download content from The Internet. Unlike The some other models of The PlayStation 3, The 120GB system does not offer backwards compatibility.

  • Actual owner of 2 Slims, Previous owner of original PS3 60GB
Color: black
First off, I actually own two of the new PS3 slims. So unlike some of the 1 and 2 star reviewers on here, I can speak from experience. I also own an Xbox 360 and a Wii, but my review will mostly cover the difference between this model and my previous launch-model 60gb PS3. I had the original, backwards compatible 60gb PS3 from launch and have loved it. It took center stage in my basement home theater setup. Blu-rays look amazing on a 119 inch screen. I had been, for quite some time, considering buying a second PS3 for my living room. Once the new Slim was announced, I decided to sell my PS3 and use the proceeds to finance the purchase of two new ones. I bought one from Amazon and another from a local brick and mortar. I have three primary uses for the PS3: gaming, watching blu-ray movies, and watching videos stored on a NAS drive on my home network. I buy tracks for Rock Band, download demos for new games, and purchase the occasional LBP costume or pack, but otherwise, I'm not really an online gamer. Anyway, the new Slim is just an excellent, excellent system. Comparing it to my previous PS3: PROS: It is significantly smaller. Pictures don't really do it justice. Runs just as quiet if not more so. The only increase in noise seems to come from the disk drive. It's noisier than my old system when accepting or ejecting a disk. Runs even cooler. I never had any heat issues with my old PS3 but this one barely puts out warm air even after a couple of hours of play sitting in a cabinet. Better audio codec support. I'm running this on a 7.2 surround system so I like the best sound I can possibly get, and my receiver takes advantage of the Slims upgraded audio output. Seems to load game data faster. I had just picked up Batman: Arkham Asylum earlier in the week. The game loades an initial 1.8 gigs (I believe) of data to your hard drive. After getting my first Slim, I had to load the same data to the new system, and only took about 2/3 the time. It's surprising since it's the same speed disk drive, but I timed it and it definitely took less time. I actually like the matte finish better. No more finger prints or smudges, doesn't reflect light. The physical buttons are great. You can just tap the power button to turn the system off, instead of having to hold down the touch button until it beeps. CONS: Only two usb ports. I know most PS3s only have two but mine had four and I like the Rock Band. Thankfully, I had a 4 port hub sitting around unused. Still no IR receiver. This was actually a pretty big disappointment for me. I run my entire theater set up with a Harmony One. Projector, receiver, even my lights. I finally broke down and spent the exta $55+ on the Logitech Harmony Adapter, but I'd rather have the ability included in the price of the system. Having to backup, reload, re-download everything. I had upgraded my previous system to a 160gb hard drive and was hoping I could just pull it and slap it into the new system. Sadly, this wasn't the case. I had to manually back up my saves game files (not all with allow you to copy. I kept all my progress for Batman, for instance, but lost all my progress in Rock Band 2. I'll also have to find or rent a copy of Rock Band 1 to reinstall all the songs from the game disk). I lost backwards compatibility and other operating system support, but I didn't care about or use either of those anyway. Other than that, the sytem is just as great as always, and I'm loving the 3.0 software and animated backgrounds. Also, just a note: If you're moving from one PS3 to two like I did, your purchased games and add ons are good on multiple systems. My wife and I play Pixlejunk Monsters and we can now choose to hang out and play in the living room where you can actually keep track of the time or disappear for hours in the man-cave. ... show more

  • Very solid console for gaming
Color: black
I'm a bit of a nerd. I've owned a PS3, Xbox360, PS2, Xbox, Nintendo 64, Gameboy Advance, SNES, various PC games, and probably a few other gaming devices that I don't even remember. I have my issues with the videogame industry as it is, but I don't think I can rate the PS3 anything below 5 stars. The PS3 is really a fantastic device for gaming, and much more. I originally picked it up for the sole purpose of playing videogames. I use it for other things now-- for example, I watch Netflix with my girlfriend all the time on it. I've downloaded recently released movies on it when I'm too lazy to go to Redbox. I've found other features on it very useful, even though I really just intended to play videogames on it. Videogames on the PS3 are pretty good. I have high standards. I've gone from playing games like Goldeneye and the Legend of Zelda to SOCOM: US Navy Seals to Halo to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. It's hard to compare videogames nowadays to videogames ten to fifteen years ago. I will say that there is a very wide variety of choices nowadays. There is something for everyone; from sports to shooting to puzzle games, you can usually find a game with great reviews. In terms of innovation, I think things have slowed down quite a bit recently. Historically you can see new concepts pop up every few years in games-- the N64 and PS1 made huge gains in graphics with fully 3D games, the PS2 and Xbox introduced online play and games like Grand Theft Auto showed the possibilities of "open"/non-linear gameplay where you don't have to follow a storyline. I'm not sure what the PS3 has done that's any different now than 7 years ago, when Halo 2 came out. I guess they're trying to do more networking things, which people really appreciate (online play, downloadable content, Netflix type stuff), and there's also the Kinect motion-sensing type fads. But I will be the first to say that a lot of the stuff out there is gimmicky, to say the least. It's made so that it "seems cool", although the enjoyment/gameplay isn't really optimized. I just made a review on Madden talking about how their company focuses on the "cool new features" but ignores the core gameplay, because hey, it's a business and they want to sell games. But as a customer, I would appreciate something more than that. I guess I'll throw in a pro's/con's list: Pros --very good graphics. --free online play, comparing to Xbox's paid service. --free WiFi connectivity, that works pretty well (my router is maybe 20 feet away in a different bedroom) --large selection of games --Bluray player itself is worth quite a bit Cons --everything in the Store is ridiculously expensive. --sometimes things are more difficult than I'd like. For example, downloading updates requires a restart and takes way longer than I'd like. --lack of innovation in today's marketplace. In general, the console is worth the money. Sony probably loses money on these consoles; they're so expensive to make (although keep in mind they'll make a ton of money by selling the games). Take a shot and pick one up; they're loaded with features and you'll probably get your money's worth somewhere in there. ... show more
