The PS3 is the largest of the 7th Gen Consoles, and has a glossy black finish, it says PLAYSTATION3 in silver text across the top/front and the Power button and Eject button are both Touchscreen buttons.
Value 7.5/10
The PS3 Currently sells for £300 in PC World with Ratchet and Clank 5 bundled in with it which some think is overpriced, although I think it's decent, and it isn't too far off the 360 now.

Advantages: Graphics are really good. Disadvantages: The price is a bit steep.
