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.

Maybe because that person updated the system.

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.

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.

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.

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

Project: Horned Owl Review

From the mid-1980s to the early part of the 2000s, light gun rail shooters were a staple in both arcade and home system gaming. Arguably, the genre started to really hit its stride in the mid-1990s. While games like Time Crisis, Virtual Cop, and House of the Dead, among others, dominated both the home system and arcade space, some one relegated to only home game systems. Today, we’ll be talking about a little-known cult game published by Sony called Project: Horned Owl. This game was developed by Alfa Systems, and all in all, this is a fun game.

The score for the first Plants Vs Zombies is such great, iconic music that it has a timeless quality. Not quite the level of Minecraft, but wonderful in its own right.
