|
Went to Gamestop today to buy a new Xbox live membership, and the guy told me the new PS3 slim is coming out in two weeks for only $299 (80gb). I'm sooo glad the price has gone down, I'm definitely buying it with my next paycheck!

WHOA. It's gone down a lot since the last time I checked. Wasn't it $600 opening day?
But still too pricey for me.  _________________

Wow, do you know if it's backwards compatible? That would be nice. _________________ LastFm

Nah its pretty much the same specs as the previous model. The only differences is that it has a matte finish instead of glossy finish, it apparently uses less power. Oh and of course, its slimmer and cheaper. _________________ Windows mobile phone with a Mac...
Frustration. |

Yeah, pretty much. I think it's only the 120gig that is backwards compatible? Eh, I have a PS2 anyway, ha. But it would be nice :/ _________________ [center]

That's so sick that they brought the price down. I didn't even know they had plans for a slim version. I may have to add a PS3 to my collection soon.  _________________ Well, it's a dull life.

Hm. I'd get one if there were more games I wanted to play for the PS3. Right now the list is InFamous and Little Big Planet. That and I wish it was backwards compatible. _________________ The Angels have the Phonebox. |

Well, I used to be a PS fan until they came out with the PS3.. There's not really any games on it to play or that I'd actually spend $50+ for. I got an xbox 360 instead, and I love it to death!
