PS3 Slim vs PS3 Phat?

May be...

Ive had enough with my xbox career so far, cause I have had 3 previous xboxs that have all broken down within 6 months on average and now my current arcade one has just fried, and I havent used it more than any other 360 person. Maybe its that Im just unlucky because many people are fine with theirs.

Anyway.

Im gonna go with a PS3 and just ignore the high price compared to the xbox. So far all Ive found out in differences with the phat and slim is that the slim uses less power, it gives off less heat is quieter and you can by a 120gb slim for the same price as a 80 gb phat . Is that right? but the phat looks way better than the slim and many people are sticking with their phats cause they know its very very reliable.

So basically the scores are:

Phat: - Slim:

2 - 4

Please could any one that has an opinion give an answer that covers as much as possible cause I will give the most detailed the best answer and if you could sum it up or whatever with summin like;

phat:- slim:

2 - 4

=p

The 80 GB looks cooler but its a dust magnet body.If you got 80 GB then you have always clean your 80 GB PS3.Because its get dirty fast because of thier ceramic black paint.In my opinion you have to buy PS3 slim because The PS3 slim (officially called the PS3 CECH-2000) will feature an upgradeable 120GB hard drive and is 33% smaller, 36% lighter, and consumes 34% less power than previous models.The cooling system has been redesigned and Cell processor has moved to a 45nm manufacturing process.The PS3 slim will also include support for BRAVIA Sync allowing control of the console over HDMI and will run quieter than previous models but no longer has the ability to install third party operating systems such as Linux.

So buy it Because it has more features then PS3 80 GB.Sorry for bad English.

well phat for the looks and slim for the hardriove and the weight and the size

slim is better if your going to be playing it all night plus it's the 2nd gen of playstation3

Well for starters the PS3 had a price drop of $100 effective now ! So the Slim and Fatty PS3 go for $299 while the 160GB with Unchartered: Drake's Fortune packed in goes for $399 !



Yes you're correct about the Slim being quieter and it does use less power ! On a down note, neither PS3 will play PS2 games nor can you download the LINUX OS ! Sony has stated that BC is not coming back so that's a bummer for people who wanted a BC PS3 !



Thew only major differences between the Slim and Fatty besides the size is the Slim can now be paired to any Sony Bravia tv with a feature known as Bravia Synch !



If you have a Bravia TV and you hook up your new PS3 with an HDMI cable (…not included), you can operate the PS3’s media bar with your TV’s remote – you can even set it to turn the system off when you turn the TV off.

Play station 3 ps3 Ethernet cable.?

May be...

ok so i got a ps3 slim today this is my first time

and i need to know what kind of cable i need for the ps3 Ethernet cable

please quick

i don't know what to do

i know where to put it and stuff i just dont know what kind i need for the ps3

all you need is an Ethernet cable, because the Slim has Wi-Fi it doesn't come with one so you'll have to go buy one, or if you have any extra ones lying around use one of those

an ethernet cable that came with the ps3

Is it true sony are going to start charging?

Is it true sony are going to start charging for their live service?

My bro's a Dm working in the industry - hes a bit sketchy about details but told me sony are going to start charging (possibly around christmas time) in Europe for a premium live service. I googled but all I’ve found is this: http://www.computerandvideogames.com/art…

Cant find anything concrete or official. Please understand I’m not after personal opinion (I’m looking for backups or links on this from experts, retail employees etc if you've they've 2 minutes)?

I dont think anyone on yahoo will be able to answer this. Sony certainly won’t confirm it because they have a history of BS. Youre better off asking this on the official forum or user forums. Every 12yr old who owns a games console thinks theyre an expert on yahoo.

That's highly doubtable. If sony were to do that that would just give undecided console buyers a reason to get xbox because if I'm gonna pay for somthing its gonna be top of the line. Sony decided om free service to lure gamers not push them away. Let's say there's a small chance sony needs a profit and and does charge, it wouldn't be near 50 dollars and if it did, u can just see PSN soaring past xbox live.

You won't find a true answer here, just opinions. At this point in time, I would say no. I don't own a PS3, but I'm pretty sure Xbox Live has a lot more features which is why it costs money. So as long as they are trailing the Xbox in feature, I don't see how they could charge. They would also be taking away a reason why some people like PS3 over 360. When people give reasons why they like PS3 more, they always say free online play.

Used PS 3 Battlefield: Bad Company Gold Edition---Unlockables Question?

May be...

If I buy a used copy of the Gold Edition, am I able to use the unlocks that were included with it when it was new? I know that all the same unlocks are accessible through playing the game on the standard edition so if they are designed to be used by the original owner and can't be accessed when you buy used, then it isn't worth the extra money to me. Thanks in advance for any help that anyone can give me.

yes they are on the disk not on a card so youll get them
