Not yet, I have seen that thread already though. The scene is now dubbing it the V11.

Very interesting indeed.



Tyler!

Hopefully this is going to stop PS2 lasers from dieing :D

Exactly what i was going to say...but by the time that they start playing up (3 to 4 years down the line) we'll be too wrapped up in the PS3.

3-4 years! Well, you’re optimistic. Considering some models history of barely make it past their 90 day warranties!! I remember talking with a Manager of a large retail chain where they had over 90% returns on PS2’s one season, a few years back.

and I think 3-4 years for PS3 is also optimistic - with the way Sony are framing :mad:

Wow...90% what versions were these? It must have been a dodgy batch.

My fist PS2 (v3) lasted 4 years until it started getting DRE but that was because it needed a manual clean and no prblems so far, except it won't read DVD-Backup's. But i aint bothered about backups on that as i have another modded PS2.

lufcfan you maybe right with me being optimistic about the release of the PS3....it seems like there is no news of it whatsoever...Sony have made a good ploy, to get the people off there backs by introducing people with the PSP, therefore thats the latest craze. But i want a PS3 now damnit... :D

Yeah! Me too. LOL :p

So... anyone got one of these things??? :)

i may have soon :)

Someone tested it not so good news i'm afraid. Maybe the romeo chip had something to do with it.

Thats what I was wondering too.

hmm maybe beacause of this new laser. It may be sending to much current to the laser blowning it or its not enuf and thus not working.

Well, with sony being the cheap skates they are, i doubt this laser is any better than the other poor ones. Never mind....X box 2 soon!!
