The Sony PlayStation truly shines with 3D-rendered action games, such as Tomb Raider and Spider-Man. These and other 3D-based titles place players in the middle of elaborate gaming environments that take full advantage of the system's ability to render up to 360,000 polygons per second. The PlayStation also has the capability to display 16.8 million colours simultaneously and can support full-frame video playback at 30 frames per second. In addition to impressive graphics, the PlayStation also offers CD-quality sound. Each PlayStation disc has the capacity to store up to 650 MB of data--significantly more information than can be stored on cartridge-based games. As an added bonus, the PlayStation will even play your favourite music CDs (accompanied by a selection of cool graphics). Less

The Nintendo DS proclaims that touching is good for gaming, and with the fashionable DS Lite now on the scene, we’re inclined to agree. The DS Lite has improved in every way over the original DS model. The screens are brighter, the case is more durable, and power consumption is more efficient. A full three hour charge will have you in portable gaming heaven for up to 19 hours of continuous operation! A whole roster of colors and styles complement the sleek new accents of the DS Lite meaning you can play better and look better than ever before. Less

Pros
Great Quality System with lots of games of many genres
Cons
The Trove of Next Gen Consoles on the way
Recommended it?
Yes
Playstation is one of the best video games systems out there on the market today even as I speak even though the PS 2 is already out.
Basically what makes any system great is the games (and not the technical specs, which are often part of the HYPE machine you see with every new console...

Pros
game selection, controller, new games are STILL being released
Cons
graphics are kind of outdated
Recommended it?
Yes
Back in the early 90's, most of the time when you'd hear about Sony, you'd think TVs, stereos, etc. Back when the SNES reigned supreme, near the end of its domination because of aging graphics and technical stuff, Sony and Nintendo were striking a deal to create a CD based add-on to the SNES...

How the DS Lite Came to Be...
When the orignal Nintendo DS launched in 2004 it was met with more than a little skepticism. This was mainly due to the unorthodox features of the little handheld; it featured two screens, one of them being a touch screen. The system turned out to be a...

Pros
decent selection of games, low price, wifi multiplayer, no need for lots of accessories
Cons
lack of multiplayer games, slow hardware, some genres not well represented
Recommended it?
Yes
I swear. I did own an original Nintendo DS. Despite its innovation and the games that were on the way, I had to give it up. I had won it in a contest, but was out of work at the time. I really needed the money and couldn't afford to start putting in money for games. Since I became reemployed, the...
