PlayStation 3 (PS3)

The PlayStation 3 (PS3), launched by Sony in 2006, marked an important step in the evolution of game consoles. Equipped with the powerful Cell processor and a Blu-ray drive, it offered high-definition graphics and a complete multimedia experience. The PS3 stood out for its free online service, the PlayStation Network, and notable exclusives like Uncharted, The Last of Us, and LittleBigPlanet. Despite a difficult start due to its high price, it established itself as a serious competitor to Microsoft's Xbox 360. With 3200 games and accessories, the PS3 helped popularize Blu-ray and laid the foundations for the modern PlayStation ecosystem, including PlayStation Plus and digital games.
