A Guide of What’s Available for SCEA’s Playstation 2, Playstation 3, and the PSP System

The Playstation Systems. As number three in a line of Playstation products, Playstation 3 ($599.99) boasts new parallel processing that enables broadband multiplayer action. It’s built in Blu-Ray disc drive promises high definition gaming, tons of media storage, streaming videos, music and an online service leaving you little to desire.

It’s predecessor, system number two, sells for only $19.99 and networks as well (just not as fast as system number three). With over 1,400 games to choose from, it’s hard to argue against this bargain.

PSP is hot again ($169.99) and integrates 3D gaming on widescreen with high fidelity stereo music, full motion video, communication and wireless networking.

Playstation 2 Accessories. If you are still “old schooling” your Playstation, then you’ll enjoy Playstation’s Dual Shock 2 Analog Controller ($24.99), Wireless NERF controller ($29.99), or it is 8MB memory card ($24.99). But the music doesn’t quit there. It plays on with the SingStar Pop game and accessory pack ($49.99) or the Guitar Hero II ($79.99).

Playstation 3 Accessories. What’s required? The Playstation 3 system sports two distinct kinds of controllers: a regular Chillstream controller ($39.99) along with a Sixaxis Wireless controller ($49.99). Combined with the Blu-ray remote control ($24.99), you’ll be able to have total domination over your system in no time.

PSP Accessories. In no way interrupt your game play once more with a 2GB Memory Stick Pro Duo ($69.99) or 4Gb Memory Stick Pro Duo ($109.99). Carry your handheld in a Platinum Pack ($19.99) or Traveler Case ($19.99). And don’t forget a carry all for your media ($14.99). PSP’s Media Manager ($24.99) will keep you organized as well.
