Sony Announces 'Superslim' PS3

Posted by Soulskill on Tuesday September 18, 2012 @07:01PM from the you-misspelled-ps4 dept.

Sony kicked off the Tokyo Game Show today by announcing a new, even smaller version of the PlayStation 3. It's 25% smaller than the PS3 Slim and half the size of the original PS3. It will be available next week. The company also announced that the PlayStation Plus subscription service will finally be added to the PS Vita in November, providing automatic game updates and extra storage. "Sony also revealed that the long-awaited PlayStation Mobile service will launch via the PlayStation Store on October 3, with support from Sharp and Fujitsu who have both joined the PlayStation Certified license program."

Battery life and Antenna by Anonymous Coward · 2012-09-18 19:27 · Score: 1, Funny

With a device that slim, I'm concerned about it's battery life and antenna reliability ....

The disc slot is removed due to piracy. If you have physical copies you want to play, you can exchange them for PSN download versions for a nominal fee, roughly 1x the cost of buying the game on the PSN. They've also closed the analogue loophole by removing all outputs.
