2. The Playstation 1 is the first
playstation gaming system
released in December of 1994. It
could only play games and audio
CDs. It didn’t have any internet
connection or usb ports. Now it
seems like a very basic model but
back then it was a very high tech
gaming device. It was unhandy
and loud compared to gaming
systems we have today.

3. The Playstation 2 was the second
playstation gaming system released in
October of 2000. The Playstation 2 has
many advances from the playstation 1.
These include the ability to play DVD’s, get
online, it has USB ports and can play both
playstation 1 and playstation 2 games. It
was the first video game console to have
DVD playback functionality included out
of the box. It was sleek and noiseless and
came with dual shock remotes.

4. The Playstation 3 is the most recent
playstation and undoubtedly the most
innovative of the three. It was released in
March of 2007 in Canada and was a
national hit! This model features wireless
motion sensing controllers as well has
wireless internet “playstation network”.
Its graphics have advanced immensely
making things so much more life like. The
ps3 has a media player and actually
doubles as a blue ray player. Additionally It
has usb ports so you can plug in your iPod
and other devices.
