PlayStation 3 (PS3) Holiday Video Game Gift Guide 2009

From Roger Altizer, former About.com Guide

It's been a banner year for the PlayStation 3. With a new version of the console out and an incredible games lineup, the PS3 has more momentum than ever. But if you are wondering what to buy the PlayStation gamer on your list, worry not. I've put together a list of the top ten games and accessories to give this holiday season. Of course, the place to start is with the updated vision of the PS3.

The new PlayStation 3 (PS3) Slim is at the top of everyone's must have holiday shopping list this year. Smaller, cheaper, consuming less power, and sporting a larger hard drive, the diminutive PS3 is a thing of beauty.

The PS3 Slim sports all the functionality of its grown-up brother, the PS3 phat. It plays games and Blu-ray discs, surfs the web, shows photos, spins music, fights cancer (really), has a virtual world, includes an online store where one can buy movies, games and add-ons, and is cute to boot.

Want to see someone grin ear to ear? Pick up a PS3 slim as your marquee gift this year.
