It won't happen.

What the hell does that have to do with anything?

If true, bye-bye to the 8.3 million lead.

But still, i will wait until Sony themselves confirm it before laughing at people.


such a fanboy the 8.3 million gap will take months and a lot of them to get close 

and not to mention that the xbox will need to stop selling 

plus lets see what microsoft has under its hands

And actually no "official" photos or even specs have been revealed yet, so you can't really call it ugly just yet.  I keep thinking more and more about that 70% cost reduction, and for the life of me I hope Sony doesn't make a "PS3 GO!" decision.....

299 Euros? What was the price before?

Im 95% positive its at 400 Euro's, although i could be way off.

This would also mean it would be $300 in the US and about £240 in the UK.

Bring Gran Turismo 5 along with that... and sales sales sales

it costs 350€ at the moment.

Well I got mine for ~310€ in January 09....

 

I have to agree with some people here. The design is okay, but I think the PS3 logo looks very cheap and ugly. I'm glad I bought a fat one. (Of course only if that's truly the final design)

This slim version is going to be eaten up in japan/NYC where they live in tiny apartments

Bolded- Point out in my post where i gave a certain time-frame of when the lead will be gone.

Green- Of course it wont stop selling, but unless MS have something to counter, 360 sales will slow down as hype will move toward the PS3slim

Red- Lets see... IF Microsoft have something.

Blue- If i was a grass, you would be reported. Heres a hint for the future though, dont insult other members for having an opinion on whats going to happen... or you probably wont be here for very long

I agree with your reply, Carl, but at the same time, you do tend to speak in absolutes.  Are you a fanboy? Hell no.  Just people who don't know you will think you are talking like one
