Great Case for travelers minus some falls
Customer Rating: 




I bought this case so I could transfer my beloved PS3 from my university (UC Berkeley) all the way down to LA. the case itslef is built very well and looks great! Contrary to what others say it DOES come with a very sturdy shoulder strap with small pad.
One main perk of the case is that it DOES NOT SAY sony or ps3 anywhere! I have quite a walk from my train stop to my apartment and not showing some punk kids what exactly i am carrying is a huge plus.
The main accessory pocket is fully velcro and is tough as nails. It is easy to access and has plenty of room for two controllers, PSP case, WMD case, 1ft HDMI cable, USB cable, and power cable.
The units idea is apparant as a Go-Play package. The vents on the sides and velcro flap bottom make it easy to hook up to any tv without taking the ps3 out. I personally dont do it myself but for some it may be a great idea.
I have already traveled with this case as a carry on from LAX to SFO and its awesome. The ps3 was secure and the flaps holding my game discs never budged.
The reason for the 4 stars is as follows,
1) There are only two straps securing the ps3. Now these straps are like rubber bands in the sense that the tighter you stretch them the more secure the ps3. The only problems is there is only about 2 inchs of velcro on the tips making proper tightening impossible! You have to settle for "Medium-tight" with the two straps.
2) The straps them selves are places to wide apart. The one closer to the face of the system slides off due to the contoure of the ps3! Now you got only one strap securing the ps3!
3) The final little problem is like others have mentioned. The straps scratch the ps3 surface a tiny bit. I simply solved this by placing the units in the thin foam material it was packaged in while in the original box.
The verdict: I would recommend this case to a friend as it serves its purpose very well. Again i have already traveled with it and it worked great. My initial fears of the velcro straps faded away when the ps3 barely budged through out the trip. The velcro bottom as some people worry about it not a problem! the opening is too small for the ps3 to "slip out" so even if you open the heavy duty velcro the ps3 is fine!
As of 8/18/08, this is the best case for the ps3 and it carrys a great price!
