Way back in early May PlayStation LifeStyle first covered the rumors surrounding the PS3 Slim.  At the time it seemed like the system was destined to be revealed at E3.  E3 came and went and PlayStation 3 Slim was a no show.  Sony denied the rumors of the PS3 on a diet, and was full steam ahead on PSP Go.  Now a listing has appeared on the German Amazon site for PlayStation 3 Konsole slim.  The listing has been updated with an image that definitely appears official.

So it looks like all the rumors were true.  It’s doubtful Amazon would be listing this in their database without information from Sony. As you can see these look exactly like all the images we have seen in the past.  Albeit the lighting is much better and the overall appearance is more polished.  No official word from Sony at this time.

[Update] The image is a user submitted one, but does have the uncanny resemblance to what has been seen before.

So what do you think?  Is the PS3 Slim real or fake?

hell yeah I think its real ive been noticing all the new ps3 ads on TV the madden 10 comes to mind at the end of the ad the ps3 is not spelled out like it used to be its just ps3 like on the slim like theres a change about to occur

what the hell man ,,,that was just a fuckin fake photoshop on Neogaf that got out of control.IT WAS A JOKE.

I have yet to see a clear nicely taken photo of a Slim PS3...

If that was me taking those picture I think I'd do a little better of a job taking those pictures

Fake or offical, i really like the matte finish.

here is what the guy(who photoshopped the pic) said on gaf after seeing the pic


"haha btw. guys the pic was uploaded by my self i am dying over here since it was ment as a gaf joke and nothing srs."

omg,,,what have you done?now you will see this on 1000 sites reporting as leaked PS3 slim unboxing.

people are so gullable that it's not even funny.

i doubt it. Like they all said its not an official photo. SONY will announce a PS3 slim when they feel like it until then dont worry about it

I didn't know Sony changed 'Playstation' to 'Funstation'

It even comes with a game!!...what game is that?...looks like some kind of minigame compilation.

Wow, we're actually getting two different PS3 Slims: a 'standard' slim and a RUNSTATION 3 (or FUNSTATION, or something - I'm not sure). Also, the other model's controllers seem to lack analog sticks. And Sony abandons Blu-ray in favor of cartridges.

More official? I hope this is a joke, a very bad joke. That looks almost more unreal than before.
