Here's a video captured by a shopper on his cell phone in the Philippines with what seems to be a PS3 Slim. There's no clue about the validity of the hardware or how it landed up from the alleged Taiwanese manufacturing factories to the Philippines. Sony's so far declined to comment on "rumors and speculation." So make what you will out of it.

    Does it play Blue-Rei, perhaps?

    If you've been to areas like the Philippines, Taiwan, China, Korea, etc. and taken a look around some of the markets, then the validity of this product just goes up in smoke. Even people who've never stepped foot in an Asian country can tell this is a fake.

    Honestly, if the PS3 Slim were a sure thing, Sony wouldn't shut up about it.

      I just hope the guy didn't end up buying it. Although, I'd love to see his reactions when he plugs it in if he did. xD

    I do believe you deserve several Thumbs Up RCG . . . You should get no less than, say . . .13!

    That said . . . WHEN WILL THIS PS3 SLIM STUFF END??? I feel like I'm going to cry, it's almost worse than the Price Cut thing!

    Sony why can't you just come up right know and deny/confirm of this whole slim stuff?

    It's *bleep*ing annoying.

    If this is true did they change the PS3 logo because the font was similar to the Spiderman 3 font.

      Spiderman is a Sony film.

      However, I assume they took the rights to the font too. Or made a joint ownership with the creator(of the font)

    Crappy footage. For all we know, he was looking at the brand new, all shiny, "Plug Stand 3!" Whatever the heck that is.

    They do a lot of modding, and a lot of pirating here in the Philippines. I would know, cuz I live here. Not very credible.

    I thought Sony said there's not going to be a PS3 slim?
