R_Mac_1 Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 Since it wasn't mentioned on here, I thought I'd post that Sony just released the Ps3 slim. Smaller in size, uses less power, makes less heat and noise, and does absolutely everything the same. Still has Blu ray, Wifi, etc. and comes with a 120gig HD. The new Ps3, along with all other Ps3s have dropped to $299 as well. Everyone was begging for a price drop, and here it is. If you don't have one, may be a good time to pick one up. http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-10312144-1.html Quote 2002 Pontiac Bonneville SSEi Pioneer DEH-P6000UB Alpine SPX-17REF 6.5" components (active) Sundown SAX-50.4 Sundown z15 (3 cubes @ 35 hz) Sundown SAX-1200D 2006 Buick Rainier CXL AWD V8 Stock Bose system 12" Alpine Type E in aeroported box Profile AP1000M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inm Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 Just witnessed an unboxing of one at a Play N Trade near me. They aren't supposed to sell them yet (I don't think), but were opening one to look at it, and get it ready to set up for in-store use. Small little bugger. I like the fact that its not as a shiny, but I still prefer the larger one.

R_Mac_1 Posted August 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 I think September 1st is the date they start officially selling them.

R_Mac_1 Posted August 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 Yeah the new slims don't have any backwards compatability, but neither have any of the new SKUs. It's not something that 90% of people care about, anyway. I know I don't. I hate playing older games anymore. Next gen graphics have spoiled me.

R_Mac_1 Posted August 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 (edited) I'll agree that that the fat models look better. But, I think the price reduction and the reduction in heat and power consumption are great selling points. Also, it still has an internal power supply, so no power bricks *cough*XBox*cough*. Supposed to run dead silent as well. I have an 80 gig model that's still running fine. I guess I never noticed the slim doesn't have SD card slots, either. The Ps3 has had so many SKUs and design changes (some w/ 4 usb slots, some with 2. Some w/ card readers, some without. 20, 60, 80, 160 gig models) Edited August 23, 2009 by R_Mac_1 Quote 2002 Pontiac Bonneville SSEi Pioneer DEH-P6000UB Alpine SPX-17REF 6.5" components (active) Sundown SAX-50.4 Sundown z15 (3 cubes @ 35 hz) Sundown SAX-1200D 2006 Buick Rainier CXL AWD V8 Stock Bose system 12" Alpine Type E in aeroported box Profile AP1000M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
