One thing people keep saying is the PS3 slim. Well the thing is, Sony has not called the PS3 out now a Slim, the box doesn't even say Slim. Because of this Sony can still launch a slim line, though I'm sure people, you know who you are, will complain about it.

Also I don't understand why someone in this thread thinks the PS3 will go up in price and the 360 will go down in price when move and natal comes out. The fact Sony has a new RSX is probably so they can keep the PS3 at 300 with move+eye and all that stuff for that price. I don't think Sony will have a price drop but they will keep everything at the price now, and we know the price now is working with how well the PS3 is selling.

Another thing is I don't understand why people are calling it a slim 360 when all they are doing, as well, is shrinking the intrenal stuff, most likely the 360 will look the same, stay at the same price and bundle natal with it so they can make a huge profit. I mean it's MS, they want a big profit I'm sure, just like the others want.

I could even say since Sony is making this new RSX available, that this E3 will be the release of the real Slim PS3 and it will be bundled with the move, pseye, and DS3, for just 250. See I can make thinks up too.

i just searched,and yes Sony is still not branding it as a Slim.They have said it is a sim but not selling it as a slim.they are selling as PS3 120gb and PS3 250gb.Didn't know that.PS2 slim is selling as PS2 SLIM but are PS2's boxes say slim?My box is in storage so can't check it out.

 

Anyways i was expecting PS3 SLIM in 2012 with power brick out.

 

I Think PS3 will only have a price cut this year if 360 has one and has a big impact with it,and 360 arcade will probably have one  to $149.If it doesn't do much then PS3 price cut won't happen.IF it has Impact PS3 will price Move bundle at $299 which will make $30 loss at most and reduce PS3 standloe to $249 to compete.

I also expect another PS3 slim down once they move towards 22nm chip sets which should first see the light of day sometime in 2011 so another slimer PS3 with small power brick by 2012 is highly possible I hope they keep the slot drive top loading like the PS2 slim would be silly.  I don't think they will sell that model as a slim either they already changed the lettering and logo once and I don't think they will do it another time.
