I think these new ones are the same in thickness but the power supply is now built into the console, which is pretty damn amazing. How far its come from the original fat PS2 eight years ago.]]>Jul 3rd 2008 10:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.itipsblog.com/images/ps2.jpg]]>Jul 3rd 2008 12:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/Jul 3rd 2008 1:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/Jul 3rd 2008 7:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/Jul 3rd 2008 10:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/Jul 3rd 2008 10:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/Jul 3rd 2008 11:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/Jul 3rd 2008 2:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/Jul 3rd 2008 10:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/Jul 3rd 2008 10:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/Jul 3rd 2008 10:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/

Not every family needs the latest and greatest or is willing to spend well north of $500 for a console and a few games. For less then $250 you can get a PS2 and a dozen used games.]]>Jul 3rd 2008 11:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/
Of course it would be a lot easier to do that if they brought back the 60 gig version.]]>Jul 3rd 2008 11:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/Jul 3rd 2008 12:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/Jul 3rd 2008 12:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/Jul 3rd 2008 12:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/Jul 3rd 2008 1:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/
But the ps3 doesn't do that either....]]>Jul 3rd 2008 1:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/
1/ it's making money
2/ PS3 is selling for less than it costs to make.

The PS2 is financing the PS3, I bet Microsoft are dead jealous of that fact... Once the PS3 production comes down further, and it's time to crank out the PS3 for $299, with priduction costs less than that, then it's time for Sony to switch focus to PS3...

In 8 years time, the PS3 will still be selling, just like the PS2 and PS1 before it. It's not a Microsoft 4yrs and dump it plan you know....]]>Jul 3rd 2008 2:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/Jul 3rd 2008 10:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/

if all new yorkers got free toasters

the title of the headline should not be "North Americans gets toasters"
even though it is true.
they should restrict down the geographic area to make it less ambiguous.

Im sure not EVERY euro country will be selling the new ps2 model.]]>Jul 3rd 2008 11:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/
Wouldn't you think it would be costing them money to be producing the 2 different models at the same time]]>Jul 3rd 2008 11:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/Jul 3rd 2008 12:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/03/sony-to-launch-slimmer-ps2-in-india-and-russia-this-year/I think westerners really need to change their view of India. India is no longer the land of the suffering poor masses. Truth is that a huge number of people can easily afford the PS2 and even the PS3 but the problem is with their mentality. Families here have a pretty different system of values not every one considers a gaming console worth buying (i am not included in those ;) )
Its just that i get frustrated by the same old poor image of India.

Numbers dont lie, and reports from 2007 indicate that india has more miniaturist kids than any country. i believe it was more than 50%. that is in comparison with africa (which is considered to be the biggest region stereotypically)!

now saying that some of them can afford ps2's is true. In any country someone can afford a ps2. however, it is vastly different from America where probably near everybody can afford a ps2.

india is still considered a developing nation for very good reasons. There is something the matter when half of your children go unfed or have a poor diet.

It is good to have national pride, however you should keep in scale with other countries. ]]>Jul 3rd 2008 3:08PM
