The faithful PlayStation 3 owners will no doubt already have their console. They enjoyed the fantastic graphics and gameplay that this machine has the last PlayStation models. But the latest version of the PlayStation 3 in PlayStation 3 called Slim's a bit more than your standard upgrade. There are new features and gadgets that are not backwards compatible with the original PS3 model. If you are an existing owneryou should buy PlayStation 3 Slim or just stay as you are?

New PS3 Slim Design

Fair enough – the new PlayStation 3 Slim looks nothing like the older model. The whole console is smaller and smarter. It is also very light comes on only 7 pounds. Gone is the gloss black finish in favor of a plastic look. I like it but not everyone will. The dimensions of the main panel is 12 inches 12 inches by 2 ½Inches wide. (In metric that's 290mm x 290mm x 65mm wide). Its small but still larger than, say, the Nintendo Wii.

The power supply for the PS3 Slim is needed slightly reduced from 280 watts to 250 – watt. So it should not run quite as hot as the previous models.

PlayStation 3 Slim Technical Spec.

A good way to notice the hard drive of 80 GB has been, up to 320 GB increased. I'm sure most serious players will jump into the higherEnd of the spec range. This is a great future security level of the hard disk capacity, which should save you hungry new memory games released in the coming seasons. The disk can be removed from the device, although I still do not understand quite why it really matters. If your drive fails you're going to upgrade to the latest machine anyway.

Backward compatibility of the new PlayStation 3 Slim

In 3 words – there are none. This isbecause of 2 things. First, to address the need for modification of the machine to the new "Move" controller. Second, add gameplay features that were not available in the original PS3 and are now required to keep in step with the competing consoles – especially the Xbox 360 So the PS3 Slim is not backwards compatible

Is it really worth buying a PS3Slim if you have the older model?

The first thing is to say that if you have a PlayStation never heard of, then thisto propose the model all of them. It comes with a Blu-ray Disc player, which they built a year before the Xbox 360. The graphics are state if the art and the best available each console.

For existing owners, it is a bitter pill to swallow when you have so much money for your old PS3 games model invested. I would say that you want to ensure you buy a new slim version included with a large bundle of games and the new "movement" controller, it is worth yourWhile.
