Yea it is a cheaper version, but hey its smaller, and it uses much less power.

lol, it's still cheap. I'm just saying that the phat is still a better choice, because its proven in all the areas that matter, and the slim might not live up to the hardware quality of the phat. Since it's almost impossible to have better dependability than a new 80gb phat with the smaller chipset, then it can't ever be "better" and now that the phat is discontinued, it will also be worth much more than the slim in the future. It's also more expensive to make, because there is more of it, and lets face it, that matte outside was used to save money. The slim was made to maintain the PS3 while also manufacturing the console as cheaply as possible. Why is it so out of the realm of possibility that it might have launch bugs. Won't the slim in 5 years be better built than the slim at launch? The phat is as good as it can get already, and the slim has no real advantage that can't be overcome with a small hd upgrade.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.
