PS3: New Sony PlayStation 3 Slim Console (12 GB) - Black - Includes Book of Spells and Wonderbook
So far so good with PS3: New Sony PlayStation 3 Slim Console (12 GB). Many hours were spent playing and I have since bought some more games. My only issue we have is that the magic eye camera seems to have a bit of a mind of its own - the wire is quite thick and the camera tends to move itself as the wire pushes it out of position. I fixed this by attaching some velcro pads.

Good Value for Money
Both my boys have really enjoyed being able to play their games and there is enough space to save games which is the main reason we bought the smaller version. Good value for money considering I get peace of mind.

Book of Spells
I recently purchased the Slim PS3 console with Book of Spells and Wonderbook for my sons' and they love it. The Wonderbook is a clever invention as the boys really thought they were making spells with the help of the motion wand which turns into a chosen Harry Potter wand. The slim console is great too for hiding away, as its slim enough to fit where we wanted it to go. Would definitely recommend it.

Superslim + Book Of Wonders pack
I chose this package as I needed an all in one solution to several problems: 1 - A Media Center the whole family could access via WiFi and also old analogue cables / scart and HDMI 2 - A console with games for children under 12 3 - A console for gaming so I can shoot things without powering up my power consuming PC 4 - Cheap, with everything I need included in the box. The PS3 Super slim is the first PS unit I've had since the PS1. It's small, very quiet, energy efficient and a pleasure to set up. The package comes with the Wonderbook, Move Controller, PS3 Controller and Eye Toy camera. The Wonderbook game is amazing. The kids will go Bananas when they are tilting the book up and down to look inside a 3D pop up book that reacts to wand Waves and speech. Flawless, and worth the money. Other games that use the Wonderbook are due in 2013 making me certain I've done the right thing. It's a very simple process. So, does it do what it says on the tin? Absolutely. 1 - Media streaming - flawless. The unit easily picked up my PC via the router and now my kids will be able to stream EVERY Format movie to anywhere in the house. It even picks up the custom Subtitles I add to our daft family movies. Simples! 2 & 3 - Games for me and the kids? OH YEAH! With a backlog of games covering the past 5 years, I'm able to pick up every one of the top 25 games for the PS3 for a great price. Playing online is free! YAY The game loading times are also slightly faster than the older units and look amazing on my expensive TV. Just remember to set the screen resolution yourself in settings if it doesn't auto pick up on a first play. 4 - Cheap. It's a no brainer. I'd recommend this package with no qualms. 10/10 All I have to do now is wipe my fingerprints off the controller so when my kids open it on Crimbo morning they don't know I've been 'play testing' it.....for a week!
