     There were days in the past when Valve Software didn’t have a kind thing to say about the PS3 case. Sony’s console has a quite different setup for developers compared to the more PC-like Xbox 360, which could have been one of the causes.

Either way, Valve looked like it was going to stay as far away from the PS3 as it could – but then Gabe Newell took to the stage at Sony’s E3 and told everyone that the PS 3 would have the best version of the game possible on consoles.

That was a considerable change of tune. Then at Gamescom, Valve told the media more nice things about Sony’s machine, and that the developer wanted to make things right in light of how bad the Orange Box port was for PS3 gamers.

“PS3 is incredibly important to us,” said project manager Erik Johnson to CVG “We don’t feel that the PS3 users had the Valve experience that we like to deliver.
  “So it that case it’s incredibly important to us; we kind of fix everything wrong in the products that we delivered before for the PS3, which we thought were good but weren’t quite the Valve experience.” Johnson added that Valve currently employs a number of PS3 veterans to work on Portal 2 on PS3.

Part of what will make the PS3 version better than the Xbox 360 version is the integration of Steamworks. The more open nature of Sony’s platform allows for Steamworks, while Microsoft likely wants to keep things under control on Xbox Live.

  Game consoles may be more complicated than ever to connect to televisions, thanks largely to the complexity of television sets. While early game consoles connected directly to the coaxial port on the back of the television or VCR, there are now multiple types of standard-definition and high-definition televisions, each with separate connection types. The designs of the different types of PS3 AV cable attempt to simplify this process by implementing a color-coding scheme that makes the purpose of each connector more self-evident.

 When you had bought the PS3 3 first, you may have liked its looks. But after having seen it in the same design for more than a year it can become boring. It becomes like a eyesore and you want to replace it with some other better Gaming console. While you can’t buy a new Gaming console every now and then, you can try out the mods that make the old console look like a new one and unique (I mean how many people own a PlayStation 3 today, with the same black box and a green switch-on light). You can find the best mods on online marketplace. You will surely love most of them. There is the line of best PlayStation 3 Mods available out there.
