I think it looks fine.
The price is appealing to me now, so its time for me to buy a PS3.

I'm sure it is using the 45nm, which is why it runs cooler. And it's not like they've done this before. The PS1/PS2 slim were just asreliable as their OG versions... It's crazy how soon this came out though... Almost 3 years old and it's slimmed down now.Originally Posted by torontoRaptor15

A lot of the 80GBs come in a bundle with multiple free games/blu ray movies. Plus the Slim looks like trash and not expensive hardware like it should. I'm not surprised if Sony cheaped out on parts inside and out to save money based on it's selling price.
Plus, seeing this is a new piece of hardware, the reliability is unknown at this point. We all know that the PS3 Fat is very reliable.

Nope. I don't think the 80GB or the Slim have it.Originally Posted by Mamba MVP
Doesn't the 80GB one have backwards compatibility though? Cause the Slim doesn't and I have a TON of PS2 games collecting dust that I would still like to play.
Like it or not, appearance is a big factor in any electronics purchase, especially with more expensive electronics. It's not like the Slim isa huge improvement over the Fat. It's lighter/smaller and consumes less power. That's it. It's not like the games will look any better. Ifthere were more improvements, I'm sure many more people would consider it over the original.Originally Posted by YDBoUnCe

Yes folks lets cop a system not based on its hardware or capabilites but the way it looks.

Appearance is important, but not important enough like purchasing a car now. Like you said, it's how the games look anyways. Lighter, smaller,less power, and hopefully less overheating = a win for me. And yes, 40GB advantage isn't that biggie...Originally Posted by torontoRaptor15

Actually, the 30% less power consumption Sony quoted was based on the original PS3s. The current 80 and 160GB versions have a power consumptionof 280w, while the Slim has a power consumption of 250w, so there is only about a 10% difference, which isn't very much.Originally Posted by undefinedinc
