PS3 Slim Goes To Laptop-Portable Now

Wouldn’t you want to get one of these yourself?

The ways people try to make something smaller and more portable never ceases to amaze me. It’s like looking at a PS3 Slim and you probably think that it’s small enough, but somehow or another, some genius modder (like Ben Heck) had decided to bring the smaller PS3 into something more portable!

I don’t have the exact dimensions for this… PS3 Slim Laptop, but judging from it’s 17″ LCD screen, we’ll have to guess that it’s roughly as big as the LCD screen itself. Yes, that’s right, what you’re seeing now is the real PS3 Slim Laptop, which is not endorsed or officially made by Sony, but rather this great guy called Ben Heck!

Ben Heck had also made the Xbox 360 Portable (which is yet another laptop), and both of the PS3 Slim and Xbox 360 actually looks pretty much the same.

If you’re thinking of getting one, you’ll either have to bring it up to Ben Heck himself, or simply give it up. Or you can start bidding for the machine! The one-of-a-kind machine is currently up for bidding on eBay, with the current offer at about USD2500. Quite a sum for a PS3 Slim which you can get at a little over $300 these days, but think of it as a one-of-a-lifetime chance for you to play a PS3 ON-THE-GO (you still have to find your power sockets, though)!

    Ohhh yeah this? Yeah, this has been out for a while actually :P But the thing I wanna know is how to buy a PS360 controller that doesn’t cost a ba-jillion dollars. Oh, and a “ps360″ controller is a 360 controller modded with ps3 buttons so you have the look and feel and fps comfort of a 360. I’m just wondering if I could play blazblue as good….hmmm.

    I guess I’ll write about that sometime soon.

    seems really cool at first, but that ‘find your own power sockets’ part really bites. I mean, unless you steal the electricity of every place you go to :/…

    maybe for those that have a pretty penny to spare, but 2500 is too much for practicality.

    At least you don’t to carry a TV with you all around! That 17″ screen can put out some pretty awesome resolutions, although it wouldn’t be exactly fun to play portable, seeing that you’ll still need to find power outlets for it.

    I’m not sure if this laptop has a battery compartment in it, but come to think of it, how long can a battery last a Playstation 3?
