Classic Game Room HD – PS3 vs. ATARI 7800 review

admin December 8, 2012 20

Classic Game Room was the FIRST classic video game review show on the Internet in 1999. Returning in 2008 with new episodes, Classic Game Room breaks out a review of the PLAYSTATION 3 PS3 video game console VS. the ATARI 7800 ProSystem. Yes the PS3 is one of the hottest game systems on the market, and yes the Atari 7800 was wiped out of existence by the Nintendo Entertainment System NES, but which is really better? With hot games like Gran Turismo 5 Prologue and Grand Theft Auto vs. Pole Position 2 and Galaga, this should be an exciting battle. Now the the Bluray and HD-DVD format war are regarded as over, what does that really mean? Does Blu-Ray have a rosey future, or has the real format war just begun? In the PS3 vs. Xbox 360 vs. Wii battle for video game supremacy who will win? Some of these questions are brought to the table in this look from the technical side of things as the PS3. For your hard earned dollars how good is this thing and should you buy it or an Atari 2600? Now that the big games like Gran Turismo Prologue and Grand Theft Auto are upon us, should you sell a kidney to buy a PS3? Or is the Sega Genesis still a better game system? CGR-HD has spent some time with the new Sony monster and has spent time with the Xbox… so let’s hear it. Be sure to watch the original Classic Game Room episodes.

    I like how the Atari 7800 looks. It is very classy, kind of like the PS3. In fact the PS3 obviously copy it. But what I love the most is that like the Neo Geo CD, it is one of those major systems where you can actually own ALL the games because they are not many. I bet that for a collector that’s an amazing thing.

    ATARI is a better game console than a PS3, and It still works like a charm over years. PS3 died within a year.
