    Default New Ps3 Slim came out

    Sony officially announces $299 PS3 Slim | Crave - CNET

    for 299 its not a bad deal!

    biggest "change" about it is that its cheaper and 1/3 smaller.

    still no ps2 backwards compatability.

    now im sure it will be MAJOR competion to xbox 360

    cuz i think the main reason people would not buy the ps3 was cuz how expensive it was.

    but now 100 cheaper..

    more people will buy which means more users online.

    so i think prolly in next few months ps3 online community will surpass the xboxlive.

    you're forgettin the extra memory, the slim comes with 120gb!

    My friend got the new slim the other day, even when he owns 3 old ps3's for each room (games room, his room and brothers) rich bastard. Not worth going out to buy to replace your existing ps3 but still looks pretty neat, along with the new update (bbci player etc).

    jeez the one looks terrible

    On the cosmetic front, this model has a textured surface finish that gives the PS3 a fresh, casual look
    this makes it looks cheap

    and look at the buttons. the old version u just touched ur finger over the power icon and it turned on, this one has big ugly buttons that you have to press down to power on and eject games


    woulda been nicer if they had it the exact same style as the old one but scaled down to a smaller size

    orly? x box fan boys make me laugh.

    since recent price cut people have been flocking in to buy ps3's

    even when ps3 was expensive as hell its online community was doing very well in comparison to xboxlive.

    PS3, Xbox 360 finally outsell Wii--in U.S. anyway | Crave - CNET

    dats how many more ps3's have been bought over xbox live

    I have never seen one comment made where it said there is more ps people online than 360. Until that comment has been said, you can keep praying that it will happen. Just because ps came out with a smaller version and 100$ cheaper then the old cost, you think ps will blow the 360 away. This is not necessarily true.

    ps3 can outsell but there would still be more xbox players online. ps3 gets boring online fast just like the wii.

    not blow it away i said surpass.

    this is how i see it.

    ps3 comes with pretty much all xbox features except headset

    it has some extras though

    blue ray (stand alone blue ray player are at least 100 bucks today)
    wi fi (standard)
    i can save downloaded avi movies into it (not sure if on xbox can do that)

    if they start making GOOD games for psp one can add psp connectivity.. but psp is pretty much dead on water at the moment. so who cares bout that.



    both console are awesome they both have pros and cons

    but these extra little things will in my opinion lead to more ps3 being sold and the ps3 community tripling in the next few months.

    Xbox360 is unbeatable by any version of PS3. Slim, fat, regular. Don't care.
