People that still don't think there's a slim and price drop coming are just blind.

At least in one eye.

Slim inbound!

Let's go, go, go!

Disclaimer: I actually have no idea if we'll see a slim in 2009, but "slim inbound!" could be the biggest catchphrase since "Uncharted, baby!"...

I said it first and i take full credit for it

Bigger than "it's Halo, So it does not count"

I think not

I can't wait to see the sales of the slim and what Sony have planned to do around its launch.

Meh. As stated earlier, the KZ2/MGS bundle was much, much better.

Releasing a slim without a price cut is meaningless. They'd just be putting more overpriced products that no one will buy on the market. Either the slim has to be priced lower than the phat or vice versa.

I can't wait for the slim, ill give my ps3 to my brother and ill buy the slim. NGS2 co-op is gonna be awesome :D.

It sure won't be the phat because those models will only be around for a few more months, maybe even weeks. This is the reason why so many stores be it Wal-Mart, Best Buy, etc. are giving away such great bundles. They need to clear stock before the end of the Summer. There's no real incentive for Sony to drop the price of the phat models because they've already recieved payment from the retailers for them. The only reason they would have a firesale is if there was a large number of phats left on shelves before the cheaper slims hit, which there won't be.
