PS3 Super Slim

[vinnnie]

I was planning to finally buy a PS3, liked the design on the first PS3, the second one (slim) was okayish but the new one (super slim) looks way too cheap, especially the slide.



I know it's just a gameconsole but I want my consoles to look classy in my setup!

Anyway here's an unboxing vid:

I'll be picking one up as a BD player.

Looks alright. I've still got my original behemoth 60 giger. The original is a great looking machine until you take out and start touching it and getting dust on it.

Bulls I'm sure you've got much cheaper BD player options out there. You've probably got ten other players at home right now.

I'm still rocking a launch 40GB. I abuse it and leave it on for days sometimes and it still keeps kickin' ass. Would go for one of these if it craps out but I'm pretty sure it will easily last me until the PS4.

I quite like the PS as a BD player. I bought a Samsung to match up with one of my TVs but its not the greatest.

ya i still got a 60gig one and only got it since SF4 came out on it. Use it only for a few games and works just fine.

Prob will last me till the next gen consoles releases a Street Fighter 5, bayonatte 2 or devil may cry game. Wont purchases another till those games come out.

What??? Bayonetta 2 a Wii U exclusive
I loved every bit of Bayonetta (Xbox 360) and was hoping for a Bayonetta 2. Wasn't planning on buying the Wii U cause I had enough of Nintendo. Bought a Wii like most people and havent touched it in years like most people! Now Bayonetta 2 is a Wii U exclusive?? Damnit... Curse you Sega. IMO no third party publisher should release console-X exclusives. Why Sega made Bayonetta 2 exclusive for Wii U is beyond me, the first Bayonetta was released on PS3 and Xbox 360. Sega lost my respect, again.

SEGA does suck now but I don't think they are involved that much with Bayonetta 2. Remember there was a lot of controversy about releasing Bayonetta on PS3 as it was designed for the 360 from the beginning. I wouldn't be surprised if SEGA didn't want to release a sequel at all.
