Sony PlayStation 3 80GB Limited Edition MotorStorm Pack

Model number: 98004 | SKU: 8463129

SynopsisPrepare for next-generation gaming thrills in which imagination and reality come together in vivid realism. This package includes an 80GB PlayStation 3 console, a SIXAXIS wireless controller, the game MotorStorm, an AC power cord, an A/V cable, an Ethernet cable and a USB cable. When talking about the PlayStation 3, it all begins with Blu-ray, a next-generation media format that boasts more than five times the storage capacity of traditional DVDs. More storage capacity means a larger canvas to create high-definition, 1080p graphics and a level of interaction never before seen in video gaming. At the heart of the PlayStation 3 is the Cell Broadband Engine. Developed by engineers from Sony, SCEI, IBM and Toshiba, this advanced, state-of-the-art microprocessor features eight Synergistic Processor Units to balance processor workload, making it significantly more powerful than traditional single-core processors. Your PSP can also join in on the fun — it can be used as a remote or even as a rear-view mirror with select PlayStation 3 racing titles. On top of all of these awesome technologies, this PlayStation 3 system also features an HDMI connection for high-definition audio and video; Memory Stick, Secure Digital and CompactFlash media card slots; Wi-Fi connectivity for wireless Internet access; and a whopping 80GB hard drive. No matter where your path to excitement leads you, PlayStation 3 will make your destination come alive. Compete in no-holds-barred, off-road racing action as you create total destruction in ever-changing environments in MotorStorm. Unlike conventional racing games, MotorStorm throws the rule book out the window, runs it over and then buries it in the dirt. Choose from dirt bikes, ATVs, sand rails, rally cars, monster trucks and more and race at breakneck speeds. Your Artificial Intelligence opponents have human-like characteristics, including bragging, attacking, taunting and more. Next-generation PlayStation 3 technology delivers an awesome, realistic racing experience. The included SIXAXIS controller lets you control a game with the movements of your body, as it utilizes sensors within that read when a player angles, tilts, thrusts or pulls the controller. Tilted analog joysticks and reshaped L2 and R2 buttons provide you with maximum comfort and maneuverability.

Outstanding machine   10/20/2007
By KimiRaik from Ramsey, NJ

What's great about it: Great detail of graphics, 1080p, and Blu Ray
What's not so great: None so far

"This is a great system for HD lcd tv's. With the 1080p, and blu ray built in. Also limits the amount of wiring because of the HDMI cable, just one small cable instead of a large and numerous cables and a huge jack to plug in. No need to buy the blu ray player, less components on the entertainment center. Easy to set up, comfortable controller, and lots of fun. All in all a great buy!!"

Best system available   10/20/2007
By jeessse from Pittsburgh, PA

What's great about it: Graphics and Audio
What's not so great: Lack of games

"Incredible system, I did own a 60GB but gave that to my brother and grabbed the 80GB when the $100 price drop took place.

The graphics on the games are insane (it destroys the 360 in this department). Keep in mind, you should have some type of HDTV or you are just ripping yourself off. You wont see the power and potential that the PS3 has.

The audio is also just as impressive. About the same as 360, maybe a notch or two higher though. Again if youre not using a surround sound system, you wont hear the crisp sound effects.

The ONLY thing lacking is game selection, we all know this, and it should change pretty soon. There are a few games coming out over the next few months that should push PS3 into the lead over Wii and 360.

Little Big Planet, Uncharted, and a few others look like they might be great, but hit or miss, once Grand Theft Auto 4 and Gran Turismo are released, PS3 is a 'MUST OWN'.

By Williamcrick from Baytown ,TX

What's great about it: Great grapics clean, easy to use
What's not so great: little big and heavy, not enough of games

"Great grapics, blue rays disc and wirless remotes very fast, beautiful display, great sound, easy to use, lots of memory no charge to play on line Way beter than the xbox 360 The only thing the xbox has over it is gears of war and halo. And if you get an xbox it will end up cost more than the PlayStation 3. lol It is definetly worth the money."

Amazing   10/11/2007
By dsciel from California

"I've had my PS3 for awhile now and I must say, it is just amazing. Hooked up to an HDTV, the picture quality is just gorgeous. Games just look so real, sometimes it's hard to believe I'm not watching live tv. The SixAxiS controller definitely brings a new dimension of gameplay to the system as well. But right now, the feature I like the most is the Blu-Ray player. Blu-Ray discs just look so crisp on the screen, it is almost unreal. And with the 5 free blu-rays I got from the promotion, it gave me a good start to my blu-ray collection.Don't believe all the fanboys giving the PS3 bad reviews, or saying nasty things, it is a good, well built and thought-out system. I would not trade it for the world."

The Real Next Gen Has Stood Up   10/09/2007
By bestwhenplayedclassic from New Albany, IN

What's great about it: It will last for this entire Generation
What's not so great: It's a little expensive

"This is what it is about, this console has the best hardware, has the best software, and is compatible with all of todays hottest technologies. If you want to buy something that you know will last for more than five years and still be hot when it gets replaced then this console is the one to get."

Well worth the cash...   10/08/2007
By samuraiblue from Florida

What's great about it: Gorgeous Graphics, Amazing System
What's not so great: Current Title Lineup is Definitely Lacking...

"Heres the deal. The PS3 is worth the money. True, the current lineup of titles for the system are definitely lacking some substance.... but that is made up for in the fact that the system doubles as a next gen DVD Player (Blu-Ray), there are quite a few more (unadvertised) titles on the Playstation Store, and more... The system has potential... It's just taking some time to get on it's feet."

can't stop   10/08/2007
By antskat421 from North Hollywood , CA

What's great about it: Everything , great play , no charge to play on line
What's not so great: cost is still up there.

"As much as I didn't want to spend $600, My husband has been beyond great and I knew he really wanted it.The graphics are incredible. Yes you can play online for free! Plays blue Ray. But since we went thru 4 xbox's and our playstation 1 out lasted them all , Playstation is what I went back to. You can download games and movies , it really is the better machine. Yes it does play PSP 1 & PSP 2 games and the controllers are better to handle.A must buy!"

Best Blu-Ray Player   10/07/2007
By scott5626 from Indiana

What's great about it: Features included compared to a X-Box 360. If HD DVD miraculously wins at least you would have a powerful computer.

Simply the Best   10/07/2007
By Kobesquall from San Antonio, TX

"The PS3 is by far the best of the next-gen consoles, with a really powerfull cell engine, awesome graphics, wireless controls with blue tooth technology, 4 USB ports, 1 Memorystick duo slot, Blu Ray disc player, DVD palyer, CD player, PSP Connectivity, 80 GB of HDD. It is simply awesome. With a little less than a year out in the market, but growing rapidly. It has few really good games but it is matter of time only for the good games to start coming out. It's more than just a gaming console, it's an entertainment center. If you are into games, this is for you. It's a SONY, which means it is quality. Strongly recommend. A++++++"

Exceeded my expectations.   09/30/2007
By pmuaddib70 from Fairmont, WV

What's great about it: Blu-ray, DVD, CD, SACD, MP3, MP4, plays PS1, PS2 and PS3 games.
What's not so great: Didn't come with the soon-to-be released Dual Shock 3 controller.

"This console has definately validated my purchase of a 57" widescreen HDTV. Stunning graphics, crisp lifelike audio, you will feel like you are there.
For gamers looking for the best graphics, make sure you have / or purchase an HDTV that supports 1080i or 1080p. And make sure you use component or HDMI cables.
The Sixaxis wireless controller has the same perfect feel that I have come to love from the Playstation controllers. The redesign of the L2 and R2 buttons were long over due. While I don't have any problems with this controller, I am looking forward to the upcoming release of the Dual Shock 3 controller.
I already have Medal of Honor Airborne and Grand Theft Auto IV pre-ordered. There are a ton of other upcoming mega hits on the horizon.

Fun!   09/20/2007
By bart

"I mainly bought this to play blu ray movies and play the occaisonal game since all my good games are on my XBOX 360 and not on the PS3.
The movie quality is not as good as with other blu ray players I have tried.
Overall graphics are much better on the XBOX 360.

Amazing Graphics   09/20/2007
By Mehi from VA

"I started out with an Atari 2600 back in the 80's and seen the progress since. The PS3 is truly the king of all gaming consoles. Unbelievable graphics and the games out now haven't even come close to tapping into the power of this machine."
