Simple!

1) Buy a PS3, (I'm talking about PS3 Slim,) and open up the box.

2) Pull out all the cords, and the big black PS3 Slim, itself.

3) Hook the power cable into the back of the PS3 Slim, and hook the other end of the cable into a power outlet that works. Good. Now you have power!

4) Time for the audio and video. Without the AV cable, you wouldn't be able to see or hear what you're doing! So pull out the AV cord from the box. The AC cord is one of the three cords included in the box: mini USB, power cable, and the AV cord. (The AV cord is very colorful on the end.) The cord splits into three small cords, yellow, red, and white. First, plug in the end of the AV cable that is plain black. i. e. not colorful. Plug this into the back of the PS3 Slim, right next to the power cable.

5) Now after the cable is inside the PS3 Slim, plug the colors into your TV, or VCR player. (TV and VCR have three colorful outlets: yellow, red, and white.) Plug in the AV cables into your VCR or TV via color code. (Yellow is your video display. Red is your right speaker audio, and white is your left. You're nearly done!

6) Now turn on the PS3, by pressing the power button. The main screen shows up. Plug in your wireless controller via mini USB into your system, to charge it. After it's charged, you can play without the mini USB cable, wirelessly! To insert a game, just slip it into the slot. To eject, press the eject button, and pull out the disc.

With PS3, you can hook up to internet, play games, download demos, and even talk to friends!

How do you use PS3 without a PC?

A PC is not involved in the use of the PS3. I don't even know how you would use the PC with a PS3. I have both and they are both connected to the internet. If you are asking how do you use a PS3 without internet and using the word PC for the internet it does not require the internet to use the PS3 it just gives the PS3 the ability to do more and to make sure the PS3 and the games have updates. Of course without the internet you can only play offline

Is the PS3 store on your PS3 or do you have to do it on your computer?

the ps3 store i use it directly on my ps3, i am not sure if you can use it online though The PS3 PlayStation store is available only for the PS3 consoles that have online capability and it is the preferred way to download to your PS3. If your PS3 does not have an internet connection your PS3 can not access or use the PlayStation store . I know procedures exist to allow update information to be downloaded from a computer and moved to the PS3. The best source for procedures is the PlayStation network support at related link
