I kinda think sony is doing this on purpose now. There are like several leaks no matter what system they are doing so it's what ever. It has to be on purpose. But that PS3 looks fake

Shocker......(not), but great for Sony. Now lets hope that the price is right for this puppy, and a decent drop for the older models. We shall see..............

My guess:

Slim $399
Current models $349 (by September with KZ2/MGS4 bundles)

Knowing Sony:

Fat: no change

Slim: $600

sony is too cheap they always hype their products with crappy amateur videos.

Yeah, just looking at the PSPGo pricing is enough of a hint what's gonna happen to the slim.

It's to give them that edgy "real" look that was so loved in films like Blair Witch Project.

Sony ads are strange sometimes

Wonder how long it'll take Sony to officially announce this version and release the official specs and price

I don't see a $399 PS3. Sony is really focusing on profitability now and a $100 price cut will just sink them deeper in the red.

PSP GO is specifically priced high to counter this

This is one of the most unfounded assumptions I have ever heard.

The PSP Go is priced high because retailers won't sell an item they aren't going to profit on, at least indirectly.  They can't sell software for it.  Its priced high so they can profit from HW sales.  Sony doesn't get the extra money.

They could beef-up "fat" PS3 with bigger HDD, more USB ports, etc and keep it at $400 or a little lower, clear current model PS3 stocks at the price they feel right, and launch PS3 Slim at $330.

sony marketing is very very capable, don't worry about that. Despite all the bashing they get for their commercials...
