it's going to be announced at the TGS in a couple of days.. and will more than likely release later this month.. according to the leaked info IGN has..

well considering some retailers here no longer stock PS3, or have sold out in other words the indication of the new model coming is written litrally on store shelves lol.

The smart thing to do would to have waited until Nintendo announced the Wii U ship date. That's happened, but who knows if the timing was intentional. If they drop the price before the Wii U launch, then it's quite possible they'll steal some sales away. Probably not a lot, but some people might re-evaluate where they spend their money.

Instant buy at 150-179. I need another ps3... also, lower power consumption and noise.

HA! someone got the reference.

You are awarded one internet sir.

I remember someone posted this pic awhile back when the supposed PS3 slim came out...will we have the same results?

Sudden? There's been rumors for months if not years. Last major PS3 model update was in 2009.

I hear ya.

agreed with both.

I am jsut hopign the rumoder "sliding" door for the discs is not true. Otherwise I will find a current slim version somewhere as my backup PS3 to my phat.
