Sure this isn't new next generation console news, but the good news is that these Slimmer than Slim little guys hold so much more memory. This time around, Sony said it completely redesigned the internal architecture, resulting in 25 percent less volume and a 20 percent lighter design compared to the current PS3; both have been cut in half compared to the original. Aesthetically, it maintains the same general style and will be available in black or white (however a white model for the US release is still uncertain)."With the extra HDD capacity which has been extended from 320GB and 160GB, users can store and enjoy more and more entertainment content including games, music, photos, and video on the new PS3," Sony says.
The first will be released on September 25th and will be a 250GB bundle for $269, the second will release October 30th and will be a 500GB console for $299. Sure it's not cheaper than the Slims now, but at least they don't exactly cost more so either. Will I pick one up? Sure Probably since I need to replace my broken one anyways.
What about you guys? Does this sound like an interesting thing for Sony to do, or is it just another wasted money grabber? (note: still unknown but unlikely that this will play PS1 and PS2 games, but given that so many of those games are already available in HD anyways, does it really matter?)
