PS3 Slim Rumors

February 1st, 2008 Posted in Business, Featured, Hardware, News, PlayStation 3, Rumor, Technology


Gadget site T3, which isn’t known for having the best integrity when it comes to rumors (they have zero, actually), are claiming that their “insider” at Sony talked about a Slim PS3 (PSThree?) at CES, saying that the console should be expected around holiday 2008, Novemberish. Considering that it took 3.5 years before they slimmed down the PS2 and five years before PS1 was slimmed down, there’s no way Sony is releasing a new version this year – they barely just got production to a stable rate at a stable price.

Obviously, Sony will at some point make a slimmer version, mainly because of shrinking the internal components like CPU, RAM and graphics chips, but so far only the Cell is on 65nm – rest is on 90nm.

    That’s just a demo T3 made I think. And they definetely used a Wii attached to a half PS3 to make the demo ROFL.
