Description
Your world just got smaller. Embark on an adventure to discover the fascinating world of next-generation gaming — a world where your imagination and reality collide in vivid realism. Stretch beyond the confines of your normal life and into an alternate reality so lifelike you'll feel as though you can reach out and touch it. Imagine living out your wildest sports fantasies by competing against the greatest professional athletes of all time who are brought to life in such extraordinary detail you can count the beads of sweat rolling off their foreheads. Or step back in time and parachute into some of the most famous battles in history as you fight through breathtaking landscapes and tumultuous battlegrounds that will make your heart beat out of your chest. No matter where your path to excitement leads you, the PlayStation 3 will make your destination come alive.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. The innovative PlayStation 3 wireless controllers use a multi-axis motion sensing system, allowing you to use your controller as a natural extension of your body with real-time precision. Let your PSP join in 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, the PlayStation 3 60GB 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 60GB hard drive. PlayStation 3 is more than a gaming console — it's an experience.This product has been refurbished.

Refurbed PS3 60 gb works fine-but is NOT 1st gen!

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Although the description doesn't specifically say this is a 1st gen PS3 (which can play PS2 games), I was hoping it would be one. What I received was a 3rd gen system with a 60 gb drive installed. Really, this is my only complaint. The case has minimal scratches, and is performing well. If you have another 50 bucks, go ahead and buy a slim model with twice the storage.

This is the 3rd gen ps3 with 60gb... enough said.
If you want a great ps3 buy the 120gb + or if you can find a 1st gen ps3 that is 20gb 40gb or 60gb for a reasonable price i recomend buying it b/c it plays all ps2 games as well as does everything else the new ps3's do.
