A friend wrote in requesting a comparison between the PS3 and Xbox 360. This is a very interesting topics as these two products are in very fierce competition. Both are fairly expensive, come in multiple versions, and are extremely powerful gaming systems.

I will start off first with information about the Playstation 3 from Sony. The playstation 3 has the most advanced hardware of any gaming system yet. It also has a Blu-ray disc drive for watching the latest Blu-ray movies. Sony went all out in the high quality components it included in this system. They actually were losing money on every system sold at release. I am not aware if this has changed yet but in the future it surely will. If they are losing money, why would they release it?

When an image was displayed on the screen for too long, it would actually have a permanent ghosting of that image. However, I learned with new technologies screen burn isn’t so much of an issue anymore. The model I have actually has a section in the menu called “screen burn protection” and in this menu it has settings to move the picture ever so slightly periodically along with a few other things to help prevent the hideous screen burn. With that said, now I would recommend a plasma TV as a good solution to your entertainment needs.
