PS3 unveiled

Finally get the chance to post about the PS3. After all my posts reagarding XBOX 360, I was hoping to balance the equation with details from Sony's end - but resisted the temptation to simply write stuff off the rumor mill.

So finally, the PS3 was unveiled on the first day of the E3 gaming expo in LA. I needn't say much about this console - if you were impressed by XBOX 360 - the hardware on this will blow you away. 1UP has this good detailed review of the PS3. Its awesome!!

It'll still be a very interesting battle - PS3 Vs XBOX 360. Lot of trend analysts are already at work making predictions. I read a report yesterday - claiming that the XBOX will definitely match the PSX in market share if not beat it over the next 5 years. These reporst never fail to amuse me. Anyway, who are we to complain - we gamers get the best end of the deal - excellent products to choose from - I'm personally favoring the PS3 right now.

Also, the XBOX is still on track for an earlier market release(year end) than PS3 (expected next spring). So I guess its good they will stay clear of each other. But, the tactician that is Bill Gates - in a recent interview in Time magazine he stated that upon release, the PS3 would walk into Halo 3 - possibly the same day - ouch!!
