The PlayStation 3, like hacky sack, has its good points and its bad points. Just ask Florian. Whenever he asks any of us for a round of "footbag," he carefully lays out the pluses and minuses on a delicate paper, before Eliza and Crecente roll their eyes and walk off. I, out of pity, humor the boy.

Likewise, News site Associated Content, known as the "the people's media company" (pinko bastards), has drawn up a list of PS3 pros and cons.

PROS

1. The technical power of the Cell
2. Blu-ray: more space (52G) is only a good thing
3. PlayStation is still the leader in the gaming industry
4. PSX, PS2 backwards compatibility (huge library of games)
5. Strong 3rd-party support
6. Controller: motion-sensing addition only a good thing
7. Online play (though still lackluster)
8. Standard harddrives
9. 1080p high definition gaming
10. Web browsing, just like the PSP
11. Connection to the PSP to enhance gameplay

Hit the jump for the cons.

CONS

1. Cost: we've said it a million times
2. Blue-Ray: too expensive storage medium
3. Size: the thing is big
4. High game prices
5. Architecture: Cell is too unique and could cause developer problems
6. No rumble
7. Even with redundancy, PS3 might have high defects at launch
8. Despite its strengths, the PS3 will only be marginally better than its competitors
9. Ken Kutaragi (will ruin the PS3?)

So with 11 pros and 9 cons, we can confirm it: The PlayStation 3 is an overwhelming success! Endless hacky sack matches all around! Brian Ashcraft
