PS3: Quite the mockup...or is it?

Stonecutter · 03-23-2005, 05:30 PM

If you'd have come out and said "FIRST EVER CONFIRMED PS3 PICS INSIDE" I think I'd have believed it.

It looks really interesting.

Crash · 03-23-2005, 05:32 PM

damn, too slow again

or is it........

HOLY SPIT... is it going to use blue ray?????????

Crash · 03-23-2005, 05:37 PM

so it is confirmed PS3 is going to use Blue ray disks that are the same size as the UMD disks...

HOLY SMiznit... Nintendo and Xbox are freaking doomed!

GameMaster · 03-23-2005, 06:18 PM

These are definitely the most believable pictures yet.

Typhoid · 03-23-2005, 06:25 PM

Damn, I wish I was cool enough to play games on a Camera.

PS3 is going to use Blu-Ray, but the disks are not the same size as UMD's.

and that hardware looks sexy...

I think that picture is the real deal and I really like the design. It also looks from the picture that the controllers will be wireless only.

Acebot44 · 03-23-2005, 09:54 PM

Looks quite awesome.

Happydude · 03-23-2005, 10:06 PM

i still think it's a fake...and i would much rather a console look like a onsole, not like a camera.

Where did you ever get the idea that discs (not disks) are the same size as the UMDs?

MuGen · 03-24-2005, 01:42 AM

he didn't see the bigger slot for the blu-ray disks I guess.

But i suppose if this was the real hardware they have more than one Memory Card slot... just one is completely ridiculous.

Looks more like a Sony projector, with a little photoshopping to it.

Canyarion · 03-24-2005, 04:00 AM

Yep, I'm pretty sure it's a photoshopped LCD projector.
The reflections in the thing are supposed to make it look more realistic, but if you watch it, there's no reflection of the guy+camera that took the picture.

Fake.

The Universal Media Disc (UMD) is a disc medium developed by Sony for use on the PlayStation Portable. It can hold 1.80 gigabytes of data, ranging from games to movies to music. The UMD has been specially developed by Sony for just this console. However, unlike the Minidisc, which was also a proprietary Sony-developed format, it will not be commercially available as empty discs, in order to avoid piracy.

Simply beautiful projectors there, can't argue.
