There has been so much history between me and my Sony Playstation 3.  I’ve been wanting to purchase one since 2 years ago!  Unfortunately, I couldn’t save enough money to get one.  Finally last year, I had enough dollars to get the all new PS3 Slim w/c was a bit cheaper than the old models of Sony Playstation 3.

I found the prices here in the Philippines to be very steep, so I sought the help of my mom’s friend to buy it for me.  Since we were both planning to go visit my mom at the same time, I took the opportunity as PS3 in the United States was a bit cheaper.  I can save like Php 3,000 if I did!

I was too excited to finally have my own Sony PS3!  When I arrived in Taiwan, news came to me that my PS3 was stolen in the airport! *sniff*.   I don’t want to bore you with the details but I ended up buying another Sony Playstation 3 Slim at Taipei.  I got the Sony PS3 bundle with the unit, extra controller, & HDMI cable at 11,880NT.  Super worth it!   Sony Playstation 3 is the best gaming console in the market!

Here are my reasons why I love this wonderful gaming console:

  1. Wireless & Wifi enabled
    Keeping up with technology, this is definitely one of the best reasons why I love Sony PS3.  The dual-shock controller is wireless, I don’t have to worry about wires or even have to fall accidentally coz of it.  I can go around the room holding the wireless controller.  Total coolness!

    I also love that Sony Playstation 3 has built-in Wifi!  I can download firmware in just one click.  I can chat with my friends online.  I can stream movies from my laptop.  Awesomeness, don’t you think?

  2. Blu-ray
    Best invention by Sony Playstation team ever!  I just love that Sony PS3 is not just a gaming machine but a great movie player.  My golly, it’s in Blu-ray!  And I even have to buy an HD TV just to be able to keep up with PS3.

    One more, Sony PS3 can play 3D Blu-ray discs something that other standalone blu-ray players cannot do.  It is just a no-brainer, Sony PS3 is our choice.

  3. Superb Graphics
    I was in awe.  When I opened the PS3 and started watching a movie, I was blown away!  The graphics was out of this world!  It was so great that I didn’t even have to adjust anything.  Sony PS3 automatically adjusted to the capability of my TV!
  4. Awesome Games
    Titles like Gran Turismo, Unchartered-Drake’s Fortune, Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil, Gran Turismo, God of War, Ratchet & Clank and a lot more.  You’re definitely in for a treat! 😀
  5. More value for money
    A standalone blu-ray player cost around $200.  Sony Playstation 3 is around $299.  And Sony PS3 is not just a gaming console, it’s a blu-ray player, an entertainment system, great storage for stuff (120GB), it can let you view photos & videos.  You can connect with your friends, the possibilities are endless.  I’m definitely happy with my purchase and if you haven’t bought a PS3, then you’re definitely missing a lot!
