[Vormund]

On the back? no that's the AC adapter.

 

[Crazymoogle]

maybe that yellow port is for a new external HDD?

Isn't that the external power supply plug?

 

[duderon]

Well, what I try to do (as a passionate gamer as you are) is to share as much infos as possible without breaking the NDAs actually. It's not a "game" I like to play on purpose.

damn i'm tired.

More Xbox2 stealth hype?

 

[Rhindle]

Heh, the power adapter is about half the size of the console.

 

[krypt0nian]

specs (stolen from kaching in other thread). NO HDD SUPPORT.

Square Enix goes through the ROOF!

 

[BuddyC]

Heh, the power adapter is about half the size of the console.

//thinks back to the N64

 

[doncale]

haha, no HDD. Sony's promises are all BS.

 

[Scrow]

Heh, the power adapter is about half the size of the console.

more like a third of the size ;P

 

[JackFrost2012]

Square Enix goes through the ROOF!

Xbox port of FFXI starts development tomorrow!

 

[neptunes]

I'm just curious to see how SE will react to this.

Sony has to keep the old model in production though, just for the HDD support!

 

[TTP]

are they unveiling psp stuffs today??

damn i'm tired.

All I can say is that everything is going according to speculations.

 

[Kiriku]

Suddenly, the original PS2 looks big.
Now I want to see an Xbox vs PSTwo comparison pic.

 

[krypt0nian]

All I can say is that everything is going according to speculations.

So $299 then?

 

[videogamer]

All I can say is that everything is going according to speculations.

sony must have the longest ppt's ever

 

[etiolate]

Why don't they just put four controller parts on it like the rest of the gaming world?

 

[videogamer]

Suddenly, the original PS2 looks big.
Now I want to see an Xbox vs PSTwo comparison pic.

In that picture, it looks huge, even bigger than a xbox

 

[neptunes]

Looks smaller and smaller by the second. (Top Loading action)

I geuess no HDLoader :lol

 

[BobbyRobby]

Top-loading is cool, no HDD is not.

 

[Vashu]

No HDD support?! Wtf is going on?!

Great, just great... They suddenly decided to burn everyone who bought that damn thing, and us Europeans will never get it by now....

 

[TTP]

So $299 then?

I've heard more optimistic speculations

 

[Joe]

ok that might just be one big dude but... :O

 

[jiggle]

I've heard more optimistic speculations

Damn you!

199 it is.=p

 

[nubbe]

It look like a PSP2

 

[krypt0nian]

$249 it is!

 

[Brofist]

I've heard more optimistic speculations

Just how optimistic are we talking here

 

[Defensor]

Suddenly Magic Swap Discs are in high demand.... LOL.

 

[Rlan]

The PS2+ HDD Will probably end up looking like this:

 

[DCharlie]

um... doesn't that kill some of the space savings (it being a top loader?)

 

[Goreomedy]

$249 it is!

Would be my guess.

And about the PSTwo... how many systems are going to be broken after being pulled off a shelf due to the reduced weight? We need quality wireless controllers, Sony.

 

[Tiberius]

freeloader for ps2 anyone ?

 

[krypt0nian]

WTF is this?

 

[8bit]

Suddenly Magic Swap Discs are in high demand.... LOL.

Surely this will reset when you open the lid?
No HDD support, new mb, flip top design = Anti piracy drive, I'd guess.

 

[u_neek]

Meh, thing thing is TOO small....

 

[Brofist]

um... doesn't that kill some of the space savings (it being a top loader?)

yeah, also kept the price down too though. slot loader would have been more expensive I'd imagine.

 

[DCharlie]

"And about the PSTwo... how many systems are going to be broken after being pulled off a shelf due to the reduced weight? We need quality wireless controllers, Sony."

i just bought a very nice wireless pad this week.... logitec i think... very small and neat.
works a charm, even with the PSX (not the PS1 - the HDD recorder)

 

[Joe]

WTF is this?

how many countries they are online in?

 

[SolidSnakex]

WTF is this?

Looks alot like the beginning of the MGS3 trailers.

Yeah, that controller rocks and batteries seems to last forever. Havent changed them since I bought it (like 3 months ago) despite having played with vibration function on all the time. Nice stuff.

 

[Marty Chinn]

Ya I'm sure it will reset when you open the lid....that is unless you hold down the door sensor so it doesn't know you did that. Think back to PS1.
