Zune HD Screenshots

Uh. Looks like something is happening — big time — in Zune land.

We present what might possibly be your first look at, yes… the Zune HD. In the gallery below, you can see images from what appears to be a forthcoming marketing campaign for Microsoft’s new PMP. We don’t have any word on specs right now, though we’ve got a sneaking suspicion this will have an HD display.

Update: Based on discussions with sources, it’s looking very likely that the device in these images is — in fact — a new Zune on its way to market.

Slimline PS3 Sold Underground in R.P.

Video footage of what appears to be a new slimline PS3 has appeared on YouTube.

The machine has a white PS logo, a new eject button, two USB ports and features a curvier PS3 typeface on the side.

The footage was chucked on the internet by the chaps at UltimatePlayStation.com. The person who shot it says the slimline PS3 was on sale at an underground market in the Philippines, priced at around GBP 250.

Sony has yet to comment, and probably won’t.

Brought to you exclusively by UltimatePlaystation.com, this is the first ever footage of the much anticipated PS3 Slim.From the video’s author “TheLastDestroyer”:
“I’m sorry the video is very short and very low quality, but my phone is ancient and the memory is very low, but i hope you believe me when i say this is in no way a fabrication.

I found the PS3 slim at an underground market in the Philippines. They were selling it for roughly 250 pounds (converted from 20,000 PHP) with a Dualshock 3. More details at the website.”

Playstation 3′s ‘Magic Wand’.

It’s Sony’s turn now. I hope they get it right now. It does feel a lot better having a peripheral being held rather than just waving your hand making yourself look silly like with Project Natal. Even the experts say this. LOL.
