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. Razz

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

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.

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 :/

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.  Cool

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.

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!
