Destructoid - Here's a good look at the new PS3 model that was announced at Tokyo Game Show a few weeks back. We've unboxed a fresh 250GB unit for you in the video above, and we have our full impressions of it below.
This slimmer-than-slim form makes even the previous model look a bit big, but when compared to the original launch unit it seems really dinky. Sony says it's 25 percent smaller and 20 percent lighter than the current model, so it's roughly half as big as the launch unit.
As for build quality, this thing is plastic throughout. It seems a bit thin in places, especially on its top, where the new sliding disc door is. That said, as long as you don't accidentally kick it like a soccer ball or drop your Xbox 360 on its top, it seems durable enough to last.
Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.
2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.
While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.
Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.
It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny
Armored Core VI?
Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.
Is something big coming soon to branch the story?
No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
Unless there's something wrong with the PS3 you already own; you don't need to buy this.
i'm running low on hdd space, so my 120 gb slim is being sold to a friend of mime for 180 bucks at the end of the month and i'll be getting new 500 gb model with ac 3. then sell ac3 for about 50 bucks and pow, i got new system with lots of space and under warranty for only 69.99, not too bad imo.
That thing is truly hideous.
How does Microsoft make the slim X360 more stylish than PS3? Is Sony shopping PS3 parts from supplier that charges premium for the parts?
Or previous PS3 models were that expensive to make that Sony has to go cheaper than Microsoft in making the latest PS3 design. Time will tell. One thing Sony is clever is often release new PS3 model around Fall season because the weather gets cooler until the following summer next year. By then, any hot electronics stay cool for almost a year. It will be interesting to see PS3 Model 4000 stability by end of next year.
For now, lets see what other software features Sony removed.
I actually kind of like it, reminds me of the old days but the only way ill buy it is if my first day phat dies on me. I hope it never does so many good memories, never tought it would get that small crazy technology nowadays.
