I'm happy staying with my fat PS3.

I see they are returning to the grill design with this. Ken would be proud.

What was wrong with the Slim? I thought it looked nice. Did it not look enough like a 90's VHS player?

Top loading? Really?

A top loading console in the year of our lord 2012 is impossibly cheap. I hope it's real. I hope instead of LEDs, you flick a switch and a green sticker tells you it's on.

It comes with static cling stickers.

You put the red one on when it's off, and switch it with the green sticker when you turn it on.

So did I, but you don't need to do that with a PS3 to play imports.

A top-loader this gen is just cheap looking.

A top-loading model will possibly allow for modding to be able to play region-locked Persona 4 Arena.

Sony is always thinking about us core gamers.

Maybe it's just me. Sony puts out these accessories you're meant to keep plugged in (camera, japanese dvr thing) and it means you have a cable sticking out the front of the system. It's just not very organized.

chronovore · « **Reply #24 on:** July 14, 2012, 12:39:08 PM »

True, but doesn't the current PS3 Slim have only two USB ports, and they're in front?

I'm just wondering if something changed with this model or not.

Purple Filth · « **Reply #25 on:** July 14, 2012, 12:55:01 PM »

if it really has those ridges then yea that looks like shit, if not then its passable.

Top loading is gonna look jarring as hell though in these times

bork · « **Reply #26 on:** July 14, 2012, 01:55:44 PM »

Could still be cool if the size is noticeably smaller and the price is cheaper.

I'm still using the same PS3 fat from 2006.

you should all buy this instead

spoiler (click to show/hide)

[close]

mere $400,what a bargain--console that costs $150 to make,two plastic $15 controllers(at best) and a game that costs like $1 to print

I can't believe that MS is selling $400 360 in 2012 and Sony is desperately trying to make PS3 look like some cheap Chinese knock-off,something is terribly wrong with this generation gaming industry.If somebody predicted that in 2005 I would immediately call waaaambulance.

On topic,16GB model should be pretty cheap(especially if top loader thing is true)...$149-$199
I guess some kind of cheap SSD(flash) will be inside,enough to match the performance of standard PS3 drive.Should be enough for few games,nothing to moan about really.

Can't wait till Sony's official pics, lmao.

I'd buy it at $99 without a second thought. If it's $200+ though, meh.

Still think the Slim looks the best.

Wow, so this thing is real?

Knowing Sony, they will still price this thing at $200 or over. PS3 and 360 desperately need to be at the $149 price point now.

Do you mean wavy as in the top edge? It's uneven because that's where the other panel slides in

There really needs to be a USB port on the back of the PS3. During my twice-yearly usage of the Move camera (lol) it's a pain to run the chord through the front.

That's what got me about the old slim PS3. It's slimmer, yeah, but it's still huge. Looks like one of those small pizza boxes.

The slim versions of the PS1 and PS2 are so cool. I guess it's harder to pull that off this gen.

http://www.vg247.com/2012/07/23/ps3-4000-skips-gamescom-16gb-flash-sku-goes-cheap/

Quote

PS3-4000, the latest, slimmest version of Sony’s current console, will not be announced at the main Sony gamescom press conference on August 14, VG247 has been told.

A gamescom reveal had been planned, but stock levels of the current build are said to be too high for Sony to move onto what is probably the last take on PS3 before PlayStation 4 is announced next year.

In addition, a source today said that the rumoured 16Gb version of PS3-4000 is in fact real, and is based on Flash memory. There was some confusion surrounding the figure, which originated from Anatel, the Brazilian Agency of Telecommunications, with many assuming it was intended to read 160Gb.

The new model will stack up against Microsoft’s 4Gb Flash-based Xbox 360. As the 16Gb PS3-4000 will have a flip-lid disc input and low-capacity storage, we’ve been told today that the announcement “may” be accompanied by a huge price cut, with the entry version potentially dropping as low as £99. Specifics are yet to be ironed out, though.

In addition to the 16Gb version, 250GB and 500GB options have been rumoured.

$99 would be crazy low.

cool breeze · « **Reply #49 on:** July 23, 2012, 01:21:12 PM »

No idea how the US dollar stacks up against the Euro, but would that be like $120 in America?

If it's that low, and there's some deal to go with it (game or w/e) around the holidays, I might buy a second PS3. I still use my PS3 for media stuff. Just need HBO go to complete it.

That's not as magical as $99, but still a whole lot cheaper than $249. It will be interesting to see how well it sells.

chronovore · « **Reply #52 on:** July 23, 2012, 02:47:10 PM »

16GB of storage will be gone immediately after system updates and one or two game-required HDD installations.

most newer games don't require much of an install, it'll be fine for the casual player

This is like the 360 4GB, just a bullet point so they can say they have a "cheap" system, there is surely gonna be an HDD slot there to install your own extra storage.
