Pros Decent Library of Games, Fantastic List of Upcoming Titles, Unique Features, Innovative...
Cons Weaker Graphical Capabilities Than the Other Consoles, Many Bad Games
Recommended it? Yes

The word 'revolution' in itself is a very powerful term - something so massive in scale that it has the power to change the way we see something. This is why I was expecting big things from Nintendo when they codenamed their next console the 'Revolution' in it's early conception. You see, they... Read full review »

Nintendo Wii: Gaming brought to a whole new level.

Pros Innovative gameplay, Plays GameCube games, emulates older games, small.
Cons Maximum display is 480p, the controls still need a little tweaking.
Recommended it? Yes

Nintendo has always tried to be an innovator with gaming in the console world. A lot of their stuff have been flops from the very beginning. Remember the robot that originally came with the system? Virtual boy was a cool idea but the market just wasn't ready for it yet. The glove (which could be... Read full review »

Black magic console...or silver.

16 Helpfuls 17 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Easy to set up, ability to play ps1 titles, bargain priced games.
Cons Noisy, chunky, limited space to 252MB combined, old pixeled graphics.
Recommended it? Yes

Ok, I believe to be able to review this platform we need to first identify wether you are upgrading from a ps1 or downgrading from a ps2.
i shall do both:
If you are upgrading from a ps1, then the ps2 will be a breath of fresh air, by far more titles out, better graphics, capablity to have... Read full review »

12 Helpfuls 13 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Unique white PS2 looks great, good value if you want Singstar Pop
Cons No white peripherals available, difficult to find in stores
Recommended it? Yes

Sony's Playstation 2 has been out for a long, long time, almost 9 years. Sony recently cut the price of the console to $100, and the price of this bundle has dropped accordingly.

There's lots of reviews of the PS2 and the Singstar game, so here I'll just discuss what is unique to this... Read full review »
