The new Sony PS3 Slim is not only more compact than the currently available PS3 console, but actually offers some more advantages. Sony has not actively promoted any advantages of the new PS3 Slim besides the small size, larger HDD (120GB) and the new low price of $299.99.
Over the last days reports appeared that highlight hardware differences in the new Sony PS3 Slim that makes it even more attractive to buy. The CELL CPU inside the PS3 Slim is actually new according to PC World. The original CELL CPU was based on 65nm technology and the PS3 Slim actually sports a new 45nm CELL CPU. The new 45nm is possibly offering more performance and is drawing less power. This means the PS3 Slim could be snappier and use less power.
CGM Writes: While we were over at PAX East, we were able to sit down with Goichi Suda (Suda51) and talk about the upcoming remaster of Shadows of the Damned
Ibrahim from eXputer: "The Medal of Honor franchise was once the crown jewel of FPS war games, later defeated by the tides of time and poor development."
They tried to turn it into Call of Duty and it killed it off. They should reboot it and go back to it's roots. But they'd ruin it with online-only/multiplayer style bullshit so why bother? I have very fond memories of these games, but this series can stay dead as far as I'm concerned.
Was literally just thinking of this game the other week with the secret nut cracker mission and the shooting Bismarck dog lmao. Loved these games as a kid
I have fond memories of playing the Medal of Honor Breakthrough MP Demo. It had two maps and custom servers. Living on campus, I had it downloaded on one of the PC Lab servers so I could access it on any computer at the university. Joined a clan and made friends that I still keep in touch with today.
INDIE Live Expo, Japan’s premiere online digital showcase series , will debut never-before-seen games & content updates across more than 100 titles on May 25th.
The chip is no doubt smaller and newer and could go quicker but seeing how the games are designed for all PS3s there won't be any difference in tem=rms of gaming and the net gain for Slim owners will be that it's a bit quiter and uses less juice and keeps cooler, imo. The chip will prolly be clocked to the same speed as the old ones anyway to preserve the same [performance over the range.
Secondly , as I've got a launch 60 with every feature(card reasers, BC etc) I don't want to swap anyway! Might get one for the bedroom, mond, and the sound performance, while cool, will only affect really high end systems.
Of course it's better. It's smaller, lighter, consumes less power, runs cooler, and apparently runs quieter.
But PS3 Silm is very ugly...
And its better than the elite in 20 ways.
SLIM = fail
300 USD is way too much for the casual consumer.
oh.. 360 sold also more units as the PS3 in japan this week, lol.
PS3 is dead.
I know what you tards say :D.. "Wait until" the 1st month, lol!
And if nothing will happen you will say "Wait until" christmas and Gt5 bundles!
Wait until, LBP
Wait until price cut (399)
wait until Kz2 (most hyped game and floped in sales, COD4 most played on PSN)
Wait until uncharted
Wait until God of War3 (the 2nd one sold only 2 million at a 120 million install base)
HELL:: WAIT UNTIL THE END OF THE PS3!
