Beyond My Expectations

I expected the slim model to have a less quality built. But once I got it in my hands I realized it was actually better than the original. The Slim model is not a fingerprint magnet like the earlier models. I don’t want to complain about backwords compatibility because I don’t think I will play any of my PS2 games. And for this price, I shouldn’t complain at all. Along with the gaming power this thing has, it is also one of the best blue-ray players out there. (or at least the best bang for your buck)

I had both, the PS3 80GB model and the PS3 120GB model; both new. This is what I found to be different:

[NOTE: I AM LISTING WHAT HAS NOT BEEN LISTED ON THE AMAZON DESCRIPTION ALREADY]

The obvious differences is that it is smaller, more energy efficient, has more HDD storage (and easy removable) and the case differs.

1 – The PS3 Slim papers and information were nearly identical. Except for the logos/images of the console. But the PS3 Slim (for some reason) did not have the yellow sheet that the previous versions had. The yellow sheet included the 1800 number (1800-345-SONY/1800-345-7669)

2 – The previous PS3 power cable was a 3-plug (both from the outlet and into the PS3); The new one is not as thick and is only 2-outlet

3 – When you first turn on the PS3 Controller, the tune is similar but different and the default OS is 2.73 (I think) The NEW PS3 logo is displayed along with the default (regular) theme but in Pink.

 

PS3 Wireless Controller

The keyboard exceeded my expectations. Despite being a small keyboard, has countless features, apart from being keyboard, it can be used as a mousepad and not only it can be used with the PS3, you can also use it as a wireless keyboard with your laptop. It was an excellent choice and very good price.

Great product works good for me as keyboard. Only one thing – lack of backlight. Other then that – very good. If you have ps 3 controller this keyboard is very useful for chatting and searching.

Now that I’ve received the Sony PS3 wireless keypad in the mail, my texting and adding names to my varius gaming avatars is a cinch. I just can’t believe I went this long without one of these keypads. Thank’s Sony!

This is the best ps3 keyboard that I’ve ever had. I have tested this keyboard and it’s really good. it makes my life easier when chatting with my friends on the ps3 before a game starts.

The Newest PlayStation Plus Perks Revealed

Sony has revealed the newest PlayStation Plus perks for North America. (You can go to our earlier story here for the newest European-centric perks.)

Starting on Tuesday, January 29th, users will be able to download Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus for PlayStation Vita free of charge. Madden 13 on both PS3 and Vita will be 30% off. And the PSN games Gatling Gears, Section 8: Prejudice and Greed Corp will all be 50% off.

Additionally, Sony has announced that if you purchase a new one-year PlayStation Plus subscription between now and March 4th, you will get an extra three months free of charge (for 15 months total). Keep in mind that subscriptions can be stacked, so you don’t have to wait until you’re about to run out if you want to take advantage of the offer.

Sony also revealed an interesting statistic that we’ll leave you with in closing. For a one year $50 PlayStation Plus account in 2012, users could have saved as much as $2,472 on free and discounted games, DLC and more. That’s nearly 50 times the cost of the subscription.
