My slim PS3 is so much better than the fat... WAY more durable and less power hungry. The only downside was PS2 BC taken out. Good that Sony is continuing to lower the size, heat, energy need, and... price :D just one thing is needed to make the super slim perfect.. PS2 bc!!! o.o

I just don't see why anyone who already has any other kind of PS3 will want this. I think the only people that will buy this are those who don't own a PS3 and perhaps current owners who's PS3's die and I don't think this will be enough to make any sort of substantial profit for Sony.

xD this doesn't make any sense. so you want Sony to keep selling bigger PS3's at 250? lol They making the PS3 smaller, lowering the price to gain new consumers. making the PS3 not just smaller and cheaper to buy, but way more efficient, fail rate/energy/heat. with the price drop Sony will have many more people interested in buying a PS3. who wants to buy a PS3 next year for 199 and play The Last of Us O.O

Doesn't look too bad. I've been wanting a second PS3 to put in another room; have to see what the price is like.

It looks alright. Don't really like those lines on top though but I'm sure I'll get used to it. Fatty still looks best.

Mmmm.... What the hell is with the lines on top? It makes it look incredibly cheap. I just hope this isn't the final product.... Which it probably is. Oh well. The only real reason at this point in making a slimmer PS3 is to reduce costs for Sony, which is always helpful considering the crazy losses they've been seeing. Maybe we'll see a price drop as well. The low adoption rate of the PS3 in the US is infuriating... I know only 1 person who has a PS3. With dozens owning the competitors' consoles.

Doesn't really look all that different from current Slim models. At least, not in terms of size. I was expecting it to be seriously miniaturized, like practically down to the size of a Kindle or something. It's kind of disappointing, actually. And why the hell would Sony bother with a 16GB model? That's nearly as useless as Microsoft's 4GB 360. Though, I guess if that's their $99 model, that's not terrible - and the 16GB, while pathetic for a main console, would still be adequate for Borderlands 2 LAN parties.

Does this mean that there is a defect in the current slim PS3s and sony made a new model to remove these defects?I'm just worried cause my original 60gig got the YLOD and I had to get a slim 320gb and I can't afford to buy a new one if the slim fails a few years down the line.

If the price is right, I may get this one. A 750gb hdd for the ps3 is about $89.99, so I'm just going to upgrade the hdd once I get one.

That is very true about the hard drives. If Sony drops the price down to 200 for a baseline model, and 150 for the 16GB, that would be really enticing. And 16 GB us actually enough to hold some downloadable games, whereas anything smaller is just impractical. Hardcore fans will jump on it for the fact that upgrading it is super easy and cheap. Unlike its competitors, Sony has smartly utilized a regular hard drive format, so upgrading from my 60GB to a 300GB was a snap. Perhaps it's time to upgrade again...

Will only buy as a last resort. I hope they fire the person who came up with the design. Terrible.

What's up with the ugly lines?!

PS2 Slim is the best looking of the 3 different style models..... The PS3 SLIMMER wins for the ugliest.

Lookin more and more like my PS2 slim with that awkward overhang. xD

Aw well, if it comes with a $200 price cut I may have to consider it...after waiting a few months for the inevitable design kinks/touchups to get worked out.

Does sony never learn? they should of stuck with the chrome fat glossy ones at the start and if they wanted to shrink it just decrease the size but make it look the same.

So this is the new 4000 series of Playstation 3. With the 500GB model I hope that they also have brought back PS2 backwards compatibilities for the "one last chance" we are not doing this anymore edition.

That would increase sale just a little bit for the diehards of PS3.

The 16GB can be the super budget $149.99 same price as the wii model to convince" the casual only play a couple of games folk" to buy a PS3.

And the 250GB is the plain old PS3 upgrade edition for the people whose PS3 slims have died.

Sony has gotten rid of the slot loading method and returned the the flip open lid of the Playstation, PSone Playstation 2 slim 7000 and 9000 series. For the final 4.5 years of the PS3 lifespan.

Worth getting not really if you already have a PS3, or really like ruffles on your console. Which could be considered feminine if Sony releases this in additional colors.

This design seems to be aimed at females. I can just see the marketing slogan : Ribbed for her pleasure.:lol:

Why make a new model, what a waste of time. I'm happy with what I've got now.

Could easily just buy the 16 GB version and just stick a large hdd in it. But then again, I'm not sure why they need to come out with another version of the PS3 when presumably, the PS4 will be released some time next year.

They sure aren't making it look any prettier, that's for sure. I did say the exact same thing about the current slim model but I got used to it. This new thing just looks ugly, though.
