The new Sony PS3 Slim is not only more compact than the currently available PS3 console, but actually offers some more advantages. Sony has not actively promoted any advantages of the new PS3 Slim besides the small size, larger HDD (120GB) and the new low price of $299.99.
Over the last days reports appeared that highlight hardware differences in the new Sony PS3 Slim that makes it even more attractive to buy. The CELL CPU inside the PS3 Slim is actually new according to PC World. The original CELL CPU was based on 65nm technology and the PS3 Slim actually sports a new 45nm CELL CPU. The new 45nm is possibly offering more performance and is drawing less power. This means the PS3 Slim could be snappier and use less power.
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."
Plenty of unforgettable games have completely messed up their players throughout the years, all the way back from the PS1 days to the dark recesses of the modern internet.
With so many games fighting for players' attention and interest losing out over time, time sink games are at risk of eventually losing steam.
It was worrisome to begin with.
It's a niche genre with only a handful of hits that can stand the test of time.
Only a few will catch on. You need a perfect storm to be successful in GaaS and a bit of luck on top of that. But a potential cash cow will keep them trying and some will go out of business because of it.
Helldivers 2 manages just fine…
Keep production costs low… don’t just make custscenes until the mechanics and enemies are perfected first.
Make so much content that you can drip extra content for years, and the game already feels complete without them.
Most importantly: make weapons, enemies, levels, and mechanics that will stand the test of 1000 hours. This might require more devs embracing procedurally generated leveled, which I think separates Helldivers 2 from Destiny’s repetitiveness.
The chip is no doubt smaller and newer and could go quicker but seeing how the games are designed for all PS3s there won't be any difference in tem=rms of gaming and the net gain for Slim owners will be that it's a bit quiter and uses less juice and keeps cooler, imo. The chip will prolly be clocked to the same speed as the old ones anyway to preserve the same [performance over the range.
Secondly , as I've got a launch 60 with every feature(card reasers, BC etc) I don't want to swap anyway! Might get one for the bedroom, mond, and the sound performance, while cool, will only affect really high end systems.
Of course it's better. It's smaller, lighter, consumes less power, runs cooler, and apparently runs quieter.
But PS3 Silm is very ugly...
And its better than the elite in 20 ways.
SLIM = fail
300 USD is way too much for the casual consumer.
oh.. 360 sold also more units as the PS3 in japan this week, lol.
PS3 is dead.
I know what you tards say :D.. "Wait until" the 1st month, lol!
And if nothing will happen you will say "Wait until" christmas and Gt5 bundles!
Wait until, LBP
Wait until price cut (399)
wait until Kz2 (most hyped game and floped in sales, COD4 most played on PSN)
Wait until uncharted
Wait until God of War3 (the 2nd one sold only 2 million at a 120 million install base)
HELL:: WAIT UNTIL THE END OF THE PS3!
