The Circle Is Now Complete

Yesterday I received my brand new PS3 which I bought with my hard earned dinero and I'm going to share with you guys my first impressions on it.

It's a very sleek looking console. Black is fine by me but it seems prone to fingerprints and dust, I have to take special care of this one. It's the 60 GB version by the way, it's fully backwards compatible with PS1 and PS2 games unlike the 80 GB version. I'm thinking about copying all my music into the hard drive because unlike the Xbox 360, the PS3 can actually burn data cd's filled with mp3's and you can arrange them in diferent folders with little thumbnails on it like you can in the computer, gotta fill the hard drive with something right? ;)

The PS3 is quiet and after five hours of nonstop gaming, the console remained cool. I like the eject and power button, with just a single touch the console turns on, pretty neat. The Xcross media bar interface is nice and easy to navigate, very user friendly I think. It doesn't have a disc tray, just pop in the CD and that's it, just like the Wii.

I got the console with Ninja Gaiden Sigma. Running at 720p with component cables (I still need to get the HDMI cables)on my 32 inch Samsung,the game looks gorgeous. The difficulty is INSANE at the default normal setting. I must have seen the game over screen over 30 times last night trying to beat chapter 3. Man....and I thought Devil May Cry 3 was hard. With my order from amazon I received two free blue ray movies: Casino Royale and 300. I haven't tried the BD player yet but I will tonight when I see the bond movie. I really want to see how much of a difference there is between DVD and BD.

As of yesterday, I own all three next gen consoles which I bought with my own money and it feels soooo good. Maybe I'll write another blog in the future comparing the three consoles. But I don't have a favorite one, I love all three just as equally. No console wars here but when it comes to multimedia, the PS3 is a clear cut winner.

Have a nice weekend guys! Oh and add me on PSN :).
