Classic Game Room HD – PS3 vs. ATARI 7800 review

25


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. Classic Game Room was the original classic video game review show on the Internet in 1999-2000, now on DVD. Wii, PS3, Xbox 360. PS3 games, ps3 game, playstation 3

    The reason games were good back then because they were simple and very challenging, I think atari wins this one, (I’m only 13)

    PS3 Wins

    KAREE111 glaubst du die erste konsole hat einen hdmi anschluss und die grafik ist so wie beim gameboy color.

  7. Rachman1337 says:

    I would buy the PS3 because you can probably hack it to emulate an atari 7800.

  8. Arsenalguy55 says:

    This is the stupidest reveiw ever! PS3 is waaaaayyyy better than Atari 7800.

  9. Karee111 says:

    SHIT!,true,noob fail by me

  15. 91fjon says:

    @acebunny17 clearly you did not pay attention to the avgn’s video. In that video was the atari 5200 not the atari 7800. They are two completely different systems.

  16. Deadboy878 says:

    HELL YEAH
    i had sega genesis
    it was awesome

  17. Atari2600Gamer says:

    acebunny17 your thinking of the atari 5200 . the AVGN doesnt have a 7800 video

  18. Wired2X says:

    It is true, whether or not you like 360 or PS3, they both still have long lives ahead of them. Their games will just keep evolving.

  19. acebunny17 says:

    7800 is a piece of crap,i watched the avgn video

  20. SirMetalGH says:

    What’s the song in this video? (:

  21. grabudjshadow says:

    Entre ellas son incomparables, puesto que una es de una generación, y la otra, de otra, (logicamente), Además de eso, no se pueden comparar en CPU’s y todo eso. La atari 7800 no sería capaz ni de ejecutar una DSL (damn Small Linux), en cambio, Play3 es capaz de ejecutar un Windows Vista (Y digo Vista porque el 7 no consume tanto) Sin ningun problema.

  22. Shaderaygun says:

    Actually Wii breaks down the least out of the current gen.

  23. campervan25 says:

    @martinezc56 well u got to consider that atari 7800 is 24 years old the technolohy wasnt as advanced but whats wrong with arcade classics

  24. Assblaster93 says:

    @234jari234
    ohhh jeez…. what is crap about wich consoles?
    Now Im curious…

  25. Assblaster93 says:

    @TheBoksera631
    If you take good care of it it will last long, however it can break down as modern electronic cuircuts are so dense, sensitive and complex.
    And with that in mind the Ps3 is amazing because it is the most advanced gamingsystem out there now and the most reliable this generation.(with a failrate lying between 1-7% by the different tests, the 360 got it between 16-50%, wich is horrifying but wont stop me from getting one.
    Ps3 might be my favourite forever.
    ATARI=COOL btw.
