Here's a Rare Look at a PS3 Prototype Console in Action

While almost every gamer in the world knows what a PS3 retail unit looks like, we now have a rare look at a PS3 prototype console that actually works.

Looks as if Sony told IBM, "umm .... for the time being, can you build a case to house the Cell processor you designed? While we finish the final PS3 design in collaboration with George Foreman's design team."

Wrong, this is a slim prototype and not the OG.
The original didn't have that boot screen.

Ratchet751747d ago

Maybe because that person updated the system.

bouzebbal1747d ago

The power eject buttons are from the slim.. The original had touch buttons

Looks like a fake to me. It’s running jailbroken firmware “Rebug” that’s why it has the debug options. It’s not official.

MecheSlays1747d ago

I think thats the case. The power and eject buttons are from the slim version of the console so its definitely not a prototype i dont think.

Obelisk921747d ago

I agree, everything looks pretty much in place like in the final slim version. It looks like a slim ps3 with rebug firmware and a 3D printed case over the regular case.

renanbianchi1747d ago (Edited 1747d ago )

Fake as hell as it's using a rebug CFW. Just a hacked slim with a 3D printed case and some stickers and markers.

20 Years Ago, Guild Wars Made a Promise That it Still Hasn't Broken Today

After 20 years of ongoing service, the original Guild Wars still makes good on a promise it made that no other MMORPG has been able to truly mimic.

Been there since day 1, and the first beta, same with GW2. 20 years and they never said oh now we need to charge a monthly fee, and they only made Guild Wars no other games. I'm going to assume GW3 will have the same business model.

I got to 50 I believe but never got into it very much.It was fun but all of my friends were still playing EQ. Good to see it’s still going though.

‘GTA V Gets Pulled from PS Plus as PC Players Continue to Favor Legacy Over Enhanced’

That’s an awful clickbait title. The use of the word ‘as’ means the first statement is the result of the second, when in reality they’re not connected.

Profchaos5d ago

Also the same for red dead redemption 2 and GTA trilogy (albeit they split that into individual games)

Tacoboto5d ago

It just got put back on Game Pass recently too.

GTA V is the pass-around sub title, and it probably doesn't even matter because everyone owns a copy or even two by now.

FortWaba5d ago

Trash article and trash website.

Doesn't even mention WHEN it's leaving.

gold_drake4d ago (Edited 4d ago )

so i looked cause i was curious, its still avaliable to me.

the headline is misleading asf.

also, how did no one report this. the editing is horrendous. they'd have my arse for this ha

gamerz4d ago

Noticed my copy of gta5 on Steam was already upgraded without me doing anything. How can you still play the legacy version?

Shiore2u4d ago

There should be a second listing right under it in your library.

Is there anything wrong with the enhanced version if you’re just playing single player?
