Glad to hear that you like it. It's good for more people to test out all the systems for like.. atleast a few hours to see if they should buy one.. except in your case you bought one first :P

Hmmm, I recently packed my ps3 into a bag and the bag broke and dropped onto one of my controllers. The controller subsequently broke but PS3 is still fine. |
The latest model PS3s (the new 80GB in particular) are actually fairly lightweight, compared to their predecessors -- especially compared to the 60GB. Good tidings for a slimline late next year I think.
I dont agree with the interface..especially if you have an HD tv, btw.. its ur opinion.



The interface for the ps3 should be changed, if they want my vote. I personally find it the worse out the three consoles. Given the new 360 interface might be good or bad.
Also congratulation on your ps3 purchase! I hope you have fun.

What do you find bad about it? No offense, but I don't think I've ever heard anyone say anything bad about the XMB. Unless you're comparing it to something like the Wii's motion sensor-based gui, it is probably the best media player interface out there. And quite a few people think the same thing; the XMB even won an Emmy award in 2007. [ref] So, what don't you like about it?
Not trying to be a fanboy. Of course, it's hard when you own the best console eve... dang it

PSWii Is a great combination if I may say so as an owner of both consoles. The Wii interface is cool but The PS3 has a better online experience and a better browser (mostly becuz of the 6 windows).
thanks for your thoughts. I haven't played PS3 yet.
Now I'm curious to see what your experience would be xbox360. would it be as pleasant?
Let us know.
You don't need Sony crap, just stick with the best!
The XMB is simple and clean... a pretty well-proven user-interface concept. I think you'd be hard pressed to find any data, either with console multi-owner polls or academic data regarding interface design, to state otherwise.
I think the PS3's interface is the best of all three, although I do very much like the mellow tunes while I'm *not* navigating my Wii's interface (i.e. I'm feeding the cat or somesuch, and not gaming). The thing is, I don't usually spend much time in the interface (which is why I like the simple XMB, probably)... I'm a gamer.
IMO, the channel thing the Wii uses is shoddy and slow compared to the XMB. Point-and-click... bleh. Heck I got a PC (okay, actually 8 PCs) for that. I want game ASAP when I turn my console on... not navigation. I'm still trying to figure out why people even liked the Wiimote before they added the decent motion sensing tech. It wasn't like Wii buyers lived in some wasteland where no one had ever seen a pointing device... obviously I will never understand, until some app really does a great job of using the motion controller.
Its the nunchuk that is so cool... and that's far and away my favorite part of the whole Wii setup. If the Wii controller was a analog nunchuk plus a D-pad nunchuk (for the other hand), rather than the clumsy pointing Wiimote, I think I would be much happier.
