Absolutely awesome as always.

Ben Heck is a genius. Im not too crazy about the finish though. I would have preferred a black finish. Im not too crazy about white electronics.

I wonder if these mods void the PS3 warranty :lol:

Looks nice work, nice colours, no keyboard (is that important?); also the point surely of a "slim" is that it is "slim" overall not just the same footprint of the original!

Personally, I prefer handheld consoles - you know, "handheld", "portable" - not "luggable"; and with built in controller and batteries - this is just a console with a screen in a clam-shell; at the end of the day. :|

It's very nice, but a bit big for my tastes.

You know what would be really cool? Make a laptop-type thing like that out of a Saturn and a Dreamcast. Two disc drives, one for each system, controller ports for either console on either side, and have an input switch for the LCD screen. Dunno how much space the innards of each take though, so it's probably not doable.

The only way to deactivate the ray beam and fight back the vampire alien threat is with a complicated series of foot patterns on the device's control board that looks remarkably like a DDR pad. We will all praise this man for saving our lives and buy him a mountain of stuffed animals.
