New PS3 Model CECH-4301x Certified by the FCC; First Differences With Old Superslim Found

A couple weeks ago DualShockers reported about the discovery of a new PS3 model with the code CECH-4306CH certified by the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology of the Republic of Indonesia. The Japanese version of that model, coded CECH-4301x (where the x is a placeholder for the hard disk size code) has been recently certified by the Federal Communications Commission, and the documentation provided brought the first differences under the spotlight.

You never read an article before commenting, do you?

Relientk773626d ago

It impresses me on how many N4G articles he comments on. And when I say how many I mean all of them.

Hellsvacancy3626d ago

Just be grateful he's only got one bubble

djplonker3626d ago

calling what he says commenting is a stretch.... he just repeats the title and adds "awesome" or something similarly stupid and vague!

crusf3626d ago (Edited 3626d ago )

Ridiculing a person whose English might not be his/her first language is just really harsh. Guy wants to be apart of the community but the jerks around here make me wish he would just leave and save his breath.

MegaRay3626d ago

He got no time for that. Have you seen madara's power yet :P

@Hellsvacancy
He has one bubble, yet his presence is quite ubiquitous.

He LITERALLY lives on this site.

Um...yeah...no. His account is fluff and I've seen him make perfectly worded comments. He does this on purpose and just to increase his post count. 90% of the stuff he says is "oh ok cool :)". Just fluff. Garbage.

It's no smaller, the measurements of the new model (290x60x230mm) are exactly the same as the slim.

Abriael3626d ago (Edited 3626d ago )

More than that (a redesign could have the same measurements after all), the number is telling. An ultra-slim would be CECH-5001 not CECH-4301

How is you always be the first to comment before anyone else?

saladthieves3626d ago

He trolls around in the pending articles section and comments on them the moment they're posted.

Software_Lover3626d ago

Oh well, I was hoping for a super super slim. That would've been nice. I cant wait for the smaller ps4/Xbones to come out. If they do.

kingPoS3626d ago (Edited 3626d ago )

Looks like remoteplay might get a boost from newer & better radios.
Ditto for the Dual Shock 4, who can say no to more peak gain.

Microsoft had a good idea but fumbled it again.

Cacabunga1d 14h ago (Edited 1d 14h ago )

Project Spark idea was decent but they quickly gave up ..
LBP was wonderful

ApocalypseShadow2d ago

Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.
https://www.playstationlife...

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.

They're scum.

Zachmo1821d 13h ago

Microsoft didn't force MLB on Xbox. MLB gave Sony 2 options either go multiplat or risk losing the license.

Rynxie1d 3h ago

And why do you think MLB said that? I believe Ms approached MLB.

ApocalypseShadow1d 3h ago (Edited 1d 2h ago )

Totally ridiculous comment.

The only exclusivity Sony had was to their own creation of The Show. Microsoft could have paid the MLB for the license just like Sony did and made their own baseball game.

Microsoft instead, groomed MLB for years in trying to poach Sony's game and bring it to Xbox. They're worth 3 TRILLION dollars. You think that's not enough money to make their own baseball game? Don't be delusional.

Microsoft spun it like they always do and told the media that they had to trust Sony with their hardware. After they put Sony in that position of not having a choice. Either go multiplatform or stop making one of their successful games. That's a no win scenario.

And what did Microsoft do? They didn't try to sell the game to the Xbox community. They put it on game pass to hurt Sony. Pushing the idea of why buy games that are $70 when you can play them in their cheap service for $10. It was a dirty tactic.

You fell for the Kool aid drink Microsoft served you instead of spitting it out. Hope it tasted good because you were fooled by Phil and the gang.

Xbox executive Sara Bond has told Axios that Microsoft spent a number of years trying to get MLB The Show onto Xbox consoles. And when it finally succeeded in breaking off PlayStation’s long-held exclusivity, the company had to “trust” Sony with pre-release Xbox Series X/S consoles.

Bond revealed that MLB The Show “always came up” in conversations between Microsoft and the Major League Baseball organization. “We always said, ‘We love this game. It would be a huge opportunity to bring it to Xbox.'” she recalled. However, when Microsoft’s efforts materialized, it put the company in an awkward situation where it had to send in pre-release consoles to a rival company.

Lying to yourself is unbecoming.

Article link tells you all you need to know in Sarah Bond's own words.

Hereandthere18h ago

They were too cheap/inept/lazy to develop their own mlb game, so they port begged for years and bribed the mlb to make the show multiplatform. Like i said many times, xbox brought nothing to the table their 24 years, ZERO.

ApocalypseShadow4h ago

At least you and others get it. Note drank the Kool aid and asked for seconds thinking it was refreshing.

Most don't even know how it all played out but it's there in black and white for all to see. Microsoft brought it up for years until the MLB forced Sony's hand. It was a win win for Microsoft. Kill one reason to buy a PlayStation or kill the game by dropping it in a cheap service to kill Sony's sales numbers on PlayStation.

"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."

Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.

RNTody1d 16h ago (Edited 1d 16h ago )

Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.

But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?

Inverno1d 15h ago

Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.

Sheppard7t31d 13h ago

How did Sony kill the series?

Inverno1d 13h ago

They shut down the servers, that's millions of user created levels gone. That and dead are pretty much the same, it's also been years since 3 and they cancelled HUB soooo.

fsfsxii23h ago

They shutdown the servers because no one was playing, no one in the community cared about the user created levels so why keep them up? Wtf you guys would never succeed in running a business.

Inverno22h ago

Yea dood no one was playing so they shut off the servers. Cause people with enough common sense can't just Google why they were actually shut of, right?
