Rumor: New PS3 model photographed

Joystiq: What seems to be a picture of a weird-looking new PS3 popped up on the site of Anatel (the Brazilian Agency of Telecommunications). The image depicts a PS3-labeled device with a ridged texture and what appears to be a sliding panel on top – perhaps indicating a cheaper top-loading disc drive.

Doesn't look good. tbh

maybe because it's a test model.

sikbeta4295d ago

Looks awful, now the grill jokes make perfect sense with this model...

gaffyh4295d ago

It'll probably look better in person.

Azmatik4296d ago

i have a original 60GB the newer fat 80GB and a slim. personally the slim is my favourite its unreal that a ps3 can be so small and do so much. i trust theyll make a super slim sexy too

mushroomwig4296d ago

It looks like the disc drive is one that slides to the right, anyone else see that?

IRetrouk4296d ago

I'd say the part with the ps3 on it slides over to the left, over the other bit

Human Analog4296d ago

Ohhh... A photograph and all speculation. I am sure glad I read this article.

LOL. This is rubbish and probably a pre-model made when making the origional PS3. Sony won't be releasing any more models imo.

Wait till GamesCom, and then say this sentence again.

I don't think the author told us any thing usefull other then how we can use it remotely - which everyone knows. Meh.

Can't do DLNA though can it, GTFO until you can!

mushroomwig3382d ago

It's a games console, things like DLNA aren't a priority.

nowitzki20043381d ago

It is when you are looking for anything to hate on the PS4 for. Pathetic!

caseh3381d ago (Edited 3381d ago )

Consoles stopped being just games consoles once they started using CDs as a medium.

Now they are multi-faceted entertainment centres and lacking something like DLNA when it's predecessor had it for as long as I can remember is pretty crap in my opinion.

@nowitzki2004

I'll tell you what's pathetic, having the functionality to pause downloads introduced a YEAR after the console launched.

For all the bells and whistles the PS4 has, missing common functionality is where it simply isn't better.

AsmaMohd3382d ago

Ps3 for LIFE! Ps4 does look good but there are not really a lot of games i really want to play on ps4 but there isn't any point to start over but it would be pretty cool to get for a wishlist.They should support Ps3 utill 2025 not 2015.

mushroomwig3382d ago

You want them to support a console for almost 20 years after it's release? Really?

1nsomniac3382d ago

Speed-Racer3382d ago
