The PS3 hasn't convinced the players yet.

Despite being considered one of Sony's best-selling PlayStation product lines, the PS3 still faces numerous "disparaging" opinions from users. Here are some points that people still don't like about PS3 .

Price

Obviously, price is a problem to talk about when talking about PS3. No matter how great a product is, consumers will weigh a lot when comparing the price of the PS3 with other consoles that are widely available in the market. For example, Sony's PS3 models and Microsoft's Xbox 360 all have a lot of similarities, although the price varies by $ 100 (PS3 costs $ 500, while the remaining product of Microsoft only has 400. USD). And with customers in the US or UK still willing to pay a higher price to be able to become the owner of a PS3 set, relying on a genuine discount is almost impossible. - at least in the near future.

There are no game-specific games

The number of games for each console is relatively limited, and on this point, the PS3 has nothing better than other models. Resistance: Fall of Man is a highly rated game, but it is also possible to count a myriad of other popular 'First-person viewpoints' games. Virtua Fighter 5, Virtua Fighter 5, Lair, or popular game Motorstorm are Sony's notable change efforts, but they don't show the PS3's sophisticated graphics strengths.

No support for download

After the initial period did not allow players to download video files, demo games to the computer, the new Xbox 360 update quickly corrected the error. The same thing should be done on PS3, especially with demo games.

New updates are too confusing

Directly downloading modifications to the PS3 is extremely sluggish, and it also annoys gamers when it comes to plugging the controller into a new console that can be updated. The advice given here is to use a computer to download the update to a memory card, then put it into the PS3's memory. It is difficult to understand that on the same Internet connection, this method is 2 to 3 times faster than letting the machine work as the first way.

Web browser needs improvement

Although the PS3 provides users with a relatively comfortable browser, there are still features that need to be improved. Always pressing on the PlayStation button on the joystick to get to the address bar means that instead of just using the keyboard and mouse, you now have to add the controller next to it. Moreover, even if you can open up to six Web pages at once, there is no anti-pop-up tool found here. Supporting Flash is also quite sketchy, so don't be surprised if you can't watch a video.

PS3 reduced 720p resolution on TVs that did not support this mode

For older HDTVs (High definition TV) only supports 1080i (1920 x 1080 pixels) resolution, instead of switching from 720p (1280 x 720 pixels) to 1080i, PS3 again bring it back to 480p format. This is like instead of watching a great quality video, you only enjoy it with DVD quality. This error has not been modified by the manufacturer yet.

Do not increase DVD resolution

The PS3 is a Blu-ray / DVD player with HDMI connection (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) but cannot transfer DVD videos to 720p or 1080i resolution causing a certain frustration. Although these changes are hard to recognize, this is still the cons of the PS3 when Blu-ray or HD DVD players from Toshiba do the job well.

Even though the PS3 still has weaknesses that need improvement, it is still a gaming machine that pleases the majority of gamers. Therefore, instead of saying ' What I hate in PS3 ', we should say ' Improvements I want to continue on PS3 '.
