Chinese mag GameWave has apparently published an image of a PS3 Slim. Maybe. Hit this. And this.
Is it real? God knows. Is the moon blue? Depends how drunk you are.
GamesCom next week? Yes please.
Thanks, GAF.
Update: SCEE just gave us a “no comment”.

For such a ‘nailed on, totally real’ console, there sure is a whole lot of fake stuff flying around.
What happened to the one in the Taiwanese market eh??
No-one bothered to buy it yet?

Christ that’s even worse than the last one

What is this.. It looks worse than the other one.
Phoenixblight said:
Not sure what the laws are outside of the States but if it were fake couldn’t Sony sue them for slander or force them to remove it?

WTF does that look like……..

Retroid said:
Congratulations, faker: that’s even more fugly than the original machine!
It’s like someone’s taken the offcuts and pushed them together. A console hotdog.

Suikoden Fan said:
I ask this evertime, why bother asking scee anything based on rumours they will never confirm it
Blerk said:
Because there’s always that chance that one day you’ll get the office junior on the other end of the phone who doesn’t realise what ‘NDA’ stands for.
Suikoden Fan said:
thats a very slim chance, your more likely to get the monkey

Like I said on Twitter, it’s the most retarded thing ever.
Komond_Deckard said:
I can’t understand what happened to put: PS 3.
Surely they have a near to release PS3 Slim, but it’s not this one, and I don’t think the other one too.
humanfish said:
At least with all these fakes knocking about ti makes things a little more interesting. We know thew slim is coming but if we knew what it looked like too where would the fun be lol At least there is some sort anticipation for Sony

Johnny Cullen said:
Jesus, thank fuck.
Retroid said:
From Baseman’s link: “I think it looks fantastic!”
I think they’re a fucking idiot with no taste.
Johnny Cullen said:
It’s like Shallow Hal.
You think it’s nice when actually, it just plain ugly and fat, innit.
But that only applies if you like the bloody thing.
Galactic_Barret said:
That has to be the ugliest console I have ever seen.
It looks like damn bread box. A really ugly bread box. I hope to high heaven that thing is fake.
Edit: Thank you, Baseman. I needed that.

No_PUDding said:
It’s just the chrome trim and massive letters that suck… It’s nice looking otherwise.
Maybe that’s what you guys hate so much?
Blerk said:
You can see their inspiration for this design right here!
