    Default PS3 Slim Console Surfaces on Black Market in the Philippines

    Didnt see this here, strangely, so gonna post it -

    The Web site this originated from (UltimatePlayStation.com) has been shut down by Sony to kill any evidence of it's existence. However, they have not taken down the YouTube video (below) yet. Enjoy!

    To quote: "I'm sorry the video is very short and very low quality, but my phone is ancient and the memory is very low, but I hope you believe me when I say this is in now way a fabrication."

    The details are as follows, taken from the Web site now seized by Sony:

    • It has a 120GB HDD.
    • Two USB Ports

    Video

    • The 'touch' button for eject and on seems to be gone, and there are now these random buttons.
    • The PS icon is now white instead of colored.
    • No more card reader
    • PLAYSTATION 3 is gone, rather its PS3. It says this on the bottom as well for some reason.
    • The guy was selling it with a DualShock 3. Whether it is compatible is another matter.
    • The guy was selling it for 20,000 pesos, which is roughly £250, which is roughly $410

    If there's any other information on this unit, let us only hope, someone will snatch it up and leak more info on it!!

    you would have to be crazy to think that that is fake. based on the internals of the ps3 it is totally possible to make it that small. The console from a design perspective was poorly thought out. This new slim version is not much better at all, and I can tell you this EVEN BEFORE it is released - still no ps2 controller port. Now since the geeks are beginning to see the slim, everybody is going to wait until it comes out in order to get it therefore killing any chance of FATTY ps3 sales.

    Sony of course is going to say its not a competing model, aka its a PS3-GO.

    all the planets are aligning. They can't drop the price and at the same time they can't release the slim (because slim versions come out AFTER the console sales peak). Hence, ps3 black hole.

    hence the killer bundle and they can always make the old ps3 more expensive.

    The ps3 design was poorly thought out? Is which console have RROD again?
