Sony UK PR Rep Comments On PS3 Slim Video

I Got hold of Sony UK to ask about the PS3 Slim video that was found yesterday. i asked if they knew what it was, and if there was a PS3 Slim coming.
the response was
"Not really sure what that video is. But as always in situations like this, we do not comment on rumour and speculation."
No conformation of a PS3 Slim. but little bits of information being leaked here and there, a future release of one seems fairy certain.



This is the video thats causing the commotion.

What Have You Played This Week?

Football Manager 09 – PC – Still playing, still going. It is my vice and will be for many years to come.

Space Invaders Extreme – PSP – I found this game at a local Morrison's for only £4 and I had to get it. The 360 version is fun, but on the PSP's small screen, the busy backgrounds are almost insane, but it doesn't detract from the gameplay which is fast, fun and just as crazy.

Ratchet & Clank – PS2 – I Had a old save file, and I really wanted to finish the game. The story is really good, and for a old PS2 game,the graphics were quite impressive. It didn't run well on the PS3, framerate would regularly drop to a slideshow which made the already difficult levels tough. The story is compelling enough to wade through this, but the end battle tested me. Still glad I finally finished it and seen how the series started.

Motorstorm Pacific Rift – PS3 – Played a lot of multiplayer, but the problem is the game doesn't match to rank, so i'm finding it hard to progress against those who have been playing the game much more. The main game has a similar problem. The races are much much harder and can be frustrating. But the game is good because there is always at least 4 very different races/tracks to race on, so if one is getting frustrating there is always another to try. What I did want, but couldn't do, was a simple casual race. I couldn't find one. I even tried to create one but after 15 minutes only 1 other person had joined.

Pokèmon Platinum – DS – Another guilty pleasure for me. Loved the series since Blue, and got platinum for my birthday. Over 24 hours into it i'm two gyms away and only 5 Pokèmon in my squad so far. As good as this series of Pokèmon games are, it really makes me want a Pokèmon MMO. There's not much else to say to be honest, like Football Manager, it's a series I always enjoy.

So What have you played this week. feel free to comment on what i've played, or add the games you've played in the comments below.

Current UK 1 VS 100 Beta Show Schedule


The UK Beta for 1 VS 100 went live last night. personally i managed to get into a couple of games but i was also kicked out of them, which took crashed the game and took me back to the dashboard and signed me out of Xbox Live. what i played was fun and it 3was nice to have UK Specific questions, like which channel 4 presenter wears silly ties, but there were also a few other questions which were by far much more difficult.
How Was Everyone Else's experience with the game?

The Extended Play Shows do not have "The One" and is just a 30 minute show with up to 37 questions. The Primetime shows do feature "The One"and are live. the more extended play games you play, the greater the chance you will be the one in Primetime.
