Ordinarily itâs not my policy to cave in to peer pressure like this, but ignoring the likely-fake shakycam video of a PS3 Slim hasnât slowed the tide of hey-d00ds tips weâre getting about it.
Thereâs also a nagging, buzzing doubt in my head, in the region of my brain that entertains such ideas as a faked moon landing and the existence of Bigfoot. After all, rumor went around last month that this sucker was in production, and a steep price cut on the 80GB PS3 likely means retailers have been told to clear space for a new SKU.

Arguments pro:
⢠You can see the ethernet and USB ports on it. Why would counterfeiters go to that kind of trouble?
⢠Logo looks legit enough.
⢠Itâs in the Philippines, where you can buy anything before itâs available, such as Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.
Arguments con:
⢠Plugged-in-and-running footage or GTFO.
⢠Some clownâs giving us the old shake-and-fake.
⢠Itâs in the Philippines, where you can buy anything before itâs available, such as Flintstones Chewable Viagra.
Alright, vote!
Update: Reader Carlo Q. weighs in with this piece of intel:
I can guarantee you that it is fake. That footage is (most likely) from a place called Greenhills Mall in the Philippines, which is known for selling crap/fake gadgets, as well as bootleg movies and other items.
