Choze Posted October 3, 2007 Posted October 3, 2007 Mentioned on MCV now. Based on news/rumours making the rounds. This is really good as people have the choice of a cheaper console. Might even come with something like a Blu ray movie. Hopefully its true. There is very little compromise in the 40GB version: 2 USB ports instead of 4 40GB HDD instead of 60GB No Memory Card readers (SD, CF and MS) No PS2 compatibility (no PS2 chipset) This means nothing is really changed outside of Backwards compatibility. So you get the full PS3 experience for PS3 games, Blu Ray, media streaming, internet browsing, online gaming etc. Hopefully its true. Since it sounds too good. But it doesnt add up to £100 in changes more like £25 for Sony according to people... Lets see.
Ramar Posted October 3, 2007 Posted October 3, 2007 PS2 Compatibility is a big issue I'd like sovled before I considered purchasing one.
Daft Posted October 3, 2007 Posted October 3, 2007 Games are a big issue I'd like solved before I consider purchasing one.
Bren Posted October 3, 2007 Posted October 3, 2007 Games are a big issue I'd like solved before I consider purchasing one. lol, so true. MGS4 isnt worth £325
Domstercool Posted October 4, 2007 Posted October 4, 2007 It's awesome owning the first model of the USA 60GB version. PS2 games all work fantastic on it. Smooth as silk on HDTVs, god running the PS2 through component on a HDTV is no where near as good as it looks on the PS3 through HDMI.
Choze Posted October 4, 2007 Author Posted October 4, 2007 lol, so true. MGS4 isnt worth £325 There's loads of great games out and even more coming. I think the new PES may be a pack in in the UK or Blu Ray Spiderman Buy/download Warhawk and Heavenly Sword both are sleeper hits. PS2 Compatibility is a big issue I'd like sovled before I considered purchasing one. Its going software only so it depends on their firmware updates
AshMat Posted October 4, 2007 Posted October 4, 2007 I'm interested, the stuff they cut out doesn't mean much to me tbh,. If it's true i might look at one after christmas.
McMad Posted October 4, 2007 Posted October 4, 2007 So I take it this one still has wi-fi in it then? If so then I better start saving...
