Perhaps it is just me, but I could give a rats ass about a slim model. I love my big shiny black chrome baby. It looks really nice right next to my awesome 360 elite. (Now just let me trade in my Wii for the Black one Nintendo)!
I agree with Leo-J, if the model is not at least dropped to $299, I still see it struggling in sales. We have all read Sony financial statements........it is not looking good and points less and less to the $299 and more towards the $350. Personally, I would not be surprised to see (Big Sexy) drop to $350, and the slim to be priced at $399.
(IMO) A slim model teamed with FFXIII in Japan will move more consoles, and probably put it above the Wii for a while. But unless the (Big Sexy) drops by $100 it is going to sell less than or equal to the 360 this holiday, even with GT5. The 360 line-up is really good this holiday too.
If the Wii gets the rumored $50 price cut for the holiday........well........you already know.
