no what you stated was this:

"Early PS3s in the mid term (3-4 years) are about as unreliable as the Xbox 360s. The 60GBs will be very rare by the time the next PS3 launches. It takes them longer to fail but pretty much every single one is doomed due to the heat and the new solder.

which

is not true at all.

because if it did, there would have been way more failure rated PS3's and the new's media would have ran a story on it, just like the Bios chip time state software failure.

they overheat less but that doesn't mean it doesn't happen that why i am doubt they are making a slim and again do it this fast.

The media doesn't report everything, especially if everyone who gets a broken console considers themselves to be a freak case.

Cannot wait for the 360 Slim!!! I would get one in a heartbeat! I suspect that they will come with natal packed in, so that will be bonus....Heres to hoping for the slim!!

given the context right before the highlighted, doesn't it point to a tv with a 360 built inside? Where are you getting the idea that it's referencing a slim version?

Also, perhaps they may be a XBL only 360 coming?

This has made me just that much more hyped for GDC, and E3 2010.

Is there any reason for Microsoft to release a slim 360? The slim PS3 was pretty much released out of necessity to cut costs and basically shed their previous image. Public perception of the PS brand wasn't as great as it could have been back then. They've even gone as far as to replace the old logo and redesign the PS3 cases. It was partial do over. Microsoft on the other hand has a great public image especially among gamers. What possible benefit could be gained from a slim model. I'm sure they can cut costs without a complete redesign. They're better off with a simple price cut.

If they do do a redesign, I hope they don't go the integrated power supply route.
Yes, Sony managed it so there's technically no reason why MS can't, but the extra heat source inside the box due to the power supply might need a radical shift in MS's design philosophy.
Look at the size of the current X360 even without an internal power source. It's quite large.

the hard drive issue, i don't think, will actually be an issue. they could get around this by forcing the new model to be horizontal (easier on optical drives) and put a slot for the HDD on what would be the top of the unit imo.

If they keep the power brick, I think they could be onto a winner if they do this redesign.

how do you no that they ar doing it fast? could'nt it have been in development for years already without us knowing
