Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: So far.....excellent. Comment: My PS3 60gb was one of the first batches put out two weeks after release. It has gone through all of the firmware updates without a hitch and remains the hub of my home theater system. Due to it's flexability with blue-ray playback, backwards compatability with PS1 and PS2 games and being hooked into the wireless home network it covers the base of being a lite media server as well. I have only positives to express more than two years later. Customer Rating: Summary: Never works Playstation, Comment: Bought playstation,has never work proberly,always broken,I think sony playstation 3 is a load of junk ,real disappointment,and frustration filled time,do your self a favor buy some other gaming unit save your self a big headach and save 499.00 dollars Customer Rating: Summary: AMAZON DECIEVED ME!!! Comment: BUYER BEWARE!!!! My wife purchased a 40GB model PS3 that included the Sixaxis controller for $399.99,on July 10, 2008 for my Birthday. She also purchased the Dual Shock controller for me as well, being that that model did not come with it. She then also purchased a 2.5" 5400RPM 80GB hard drive to replace the smaller 40GB Hard drive in the PS3. When I recieved the PS3 and accessories on July 14, 2008, I looked at Amazon's website to find that that model had been discontinued and the new model had an 80GB Hard Drive and Dual Shock Controller included for the same price of $399.99. So I was taken advantage of by selling the older model for the newer model price and making me pay 109.98 extra for the upgrades. I have no use for the older controller and the old hard drive will not work in anything other than a PS3, so it is useless as well. Everytime I have tried to resolve the issue over the phone with Amazon, they leave me on hold and eventually hang up on me. I have now just sent E-mail detailing the situation and am now leaving these reviews up for all of the customers like you to be aware of what kind of tactics they are trying to pull. These older 40GB models of PS3 can be sent back to the manufacturer by Amazon for a credit, yet they still pawned it off on me!?!?! Amazon is usually a pretty oggod company as far as customer service is concerned, so I am hoping that this is just one that fell through the crack and one that they will remedy when all you guys read this and they get my E-mail. It is now December 17,2008 and still trying, will keep all you potential PS3'ers informed. BUYER BEWARE!!!!! Customer Rating: Summary: Im not sure what to put here. Comment: the product showed up really earlier and product is great. great seller and i look forward to buying more from this seller Customer Rating: Summary: Quit Working after 1 year Comment: First it was our X Box 360, ordered another, now last week the over $400 PS3 quit working, Conveniently a few weeks after the one year, so now we are out a game and cant watch our movies! We ordered new power supply for $50 hoping that was the issue, we will see. No PS3 game wishes this year from the kids. glad it broke before we bought any games!
