basically says the new slims are possibly faster then old ps3's. regardless im guessing they are probably alot more stable.. i had a launch system and it crashed probably 100 times in my time owning it


interesting man..I have a launch system also and haven't had any crashes except for when UT3 was really unstable (pre-patches)

I own the 160GB PS3 that included Drake's Fortune & the free voucher for Pain & I couldn't be happier.

The only discrepancy that I care about besides the trivial differences that distinguish each system is the price point - the more people that own the PS3 the better.

The ‘overweight’ (considering that ‘slim’ is the keyword here) PS3's have always been aesthetically sexy to me.

i just wish it had the ultra sleek wet jet black finish outside skin like the old one. i do like that about the old one better. but the design, slimness and the fact it has 120 gigs and an in-power source makes it a far superior machine to the old ps3. the looks are about even to me because i thought the old one was in fact to big. this one is perfect, just wish it had the same finish on the outside. you would be dumb to take the old one over this new slim design...


This is sort of what I am saying. Smaller is obviously better. But the finish is so blah. I mean it doesn't look that bad per se but consider that expensive technology ideally looks slightly ahead of its time so it still looks cool down the road a bit. This new PS3 looks AIGHT in 2009. Next year and the year after it will age very rapidly I feel......of course that only matters to those stimulated by the aesthetics of their electronics. Some people are, some people aren't, and no one chooses to be either way.


have you seen the 360 or read up about it? its uglier than sin and has around a 50% chance of failing and not working shortly down the line. yet it still outsells the ps3. but thank god sony made improvements to their system, or i was going to have to go back to pc gaming 100%. i just dont like investing a good sum of money and it just pooping out on me very quickly. id settle for a little less looks and a better machine anyday over a good looking pile of ****. if you read about the slim, you would know its the best gaming system ever made in overall terms. even better than its mother, the old ps3.


As far as how the 360 looks or sells......not really what I was talking about. The hardware in the new PS3? Seems like an improvement but again, not what I was talking about. You can bring all that into this that is totally fine, but know that is exactly what is happening. I just started a thread asking what everyone's take on the looks are. "Don't care" was your option.....not "Don't care because....". As I mentioned before, this thread is geared toward opinions on the looks. You should probably just leave this discussion to the shallow a$$holes like my self. Wink


I mean that in the non-douchiest way possible. (That is the second time I have said that today....if I have to keep clarifying that, I am probably a big douche, oh well.....dirty vag'z here I come lol)

In all seriousness I agreed with where u were coming from before you said it, it is just that I started a thread about something else.
