Previous PS3 Slim News

It looks like Sony are soon to release details of a new Playstation 3 console, the Sony PS3 Slim.

Early rumours suggested that the new Playstation may be the eagerly awaited PS4 console but this latest unconfirmed story appears to supercede that particular rumour. This of course means that the PS4 console is unlikely to be released in the near future.

With regard to the PS3 Slim news, this is much more likely, possibly even this year. A slim PS3 console would just be an extension of the other Playstation Slim consoles, following on from the PSOne, PS2 and of course the recent PSP Slim which came in PSP 2000 and PSP 3000 versions. No doubt therefore that there will also be a PSP 4000 version at some stage. Edit: Sony announced at the recent E3 Expo that the PSP 4000 will be called the PSP Go.

As far as possible features and specifications are concerned, don’t expect too much. The whole point is to offer the current PS3 in a slim and lite version rather than stuff it with new specifications. The new features will be saved for the PS4 Console.

What you may see is an extension from the current 80GB to 160GB but we are just speculating here. We’ll just have to wait and see.

    Thanks for the info, i heard rumours at E3, then it all died down again, now it seems to have resurfaced, even that two taiwanese manufactures are working on them now! If it is true then it’s a step in the right direction from sony

    I don’t know how they would keep the system cool enough, without sacraficing noise from the fans. I hope they do bring out the PS3 slim version, hopefully with lower power usage so it can go in my campervan! It might also give a much needed increase in sales if they could drop the price at the same time as release.

    Argh! I want one… but I don’t! I mean, meh, how far off exactly could we be from a PS4? Ha, your blog has now got me thinking. Still naffed off that I have a G1 Android and G2 is already out, less than 12 months later.

    I think a PS4 is probably 4-5 years away at least!

    I think a PS4, could be at least 3 years due to the new PS3 Slim coming out :D
