Best PlayStation 3 games

With its Blu-ray and music features, Sony loves to spruik the PlayStation 3 as a multi-purpose home theatre centre, but face it, you wouldn't have one if you didn't want to play games. Here's our pick of the best.

Reviews

  • Oppo BDP-83 Blu-ray Player

    With a mind-blowing feature set and superlative performance, the Oppo BDP-83 Blu-ray player could very well be the last disc spinner you'll ever need.

  • Canon IXUS 200 IS

    Pairing a pretty touchscreen interface with a competent camera is always a good move, but we're a bit stuck as to what the 200 IS actually is: a touchscreen or a conventional compact.

  • Madden NFL 10

    A number of features make Madden NFL 10 a more realistic and enjoyable portrayal of football, but a few problems — both old and new — continue to trouble the series.

  • HP 2309m

    At a price of AU$649, the 2309m is a decent buy. While it performs well, the blacks aren't as deep as we'd like, and we'd be more tempted to find something with a matte screen to cut down on reflections.

  • Panasonic SA-BX500

    The Panasonic SA-BX500 sounds OK but is too hard to recommend because of too many limitations for its asking price. The wireless surround pack works well, but just adds expense to an under-featured receiver.

  • Sony Handycam HDR-XR500V

    With its new back-illuminated CMOS sensor, GPS receiver and active image stabilisation, this new Handycam looks set to usurp the camcorder throne. We can't wait until we're able to do a full review.

  • Denon AVR-1909

    The Denon AVR-1909 sounds great and is fully featured, but isn't the easiest receiver to set up and use.

  • Toshiba XD-E500

    Toshiba's XD-E500 provides a simple way to make humble DVDs look a bit better, but don't be fooled into thinking that it'll magically turn them into Blu-Ray discs.
