Is this where PS3s are born?

A brand new PlayStation 3 is shiny and impressive when unboxed, and you’d probably never imagine that the slick, gleaming black game console was created in what looks to be an over-packed car garage.

We can’t be sure if these pictures from a Chinese forum are legitimate, but CSR Asia says that they  allegedly show a Chinese PS3 factory in action. I always imagined high-tech robotic arms and laser beams doing the assembly work, but the environment in these shots look like a cross between a hospital and a sweat shop.
