Rumor: "Super Slim" PS3 model lands September 28th

[radgamer420]

Mynd needs to post pictures when he does get one.

[mynd]

Was actually looking at what I'd get, theres a good resistance 1 & 2 pack, but suspect there is a trilogy release coming, and of course there is kz pack.
Uncharted 1-3 as well.

Definitley get the KZ trilogy pack and the Uncharted trilogy pack. Dont bother with Resistance though unless youre going to just buy the first one.

$299 NZ, and ASAP.
I'd even go with a bundle for $349.

What?!. How much are they normally going for over there right now?.

Cheapest is $449, most well over $500

And their is no real reason either.
Shouldn't be much more than 340 with current exchange rate.

Dang, $500 is what I paid back in early 2007!. The cheapest in Amazon is at $200. Normal retail is $249.99

How much are the Xbox 360 there?.

The Collections line is an official line so there will be more of these bundled. To any late adopter, I'd say the following are worth contemplating:

GoW saga
inFamous collection
Killzone trilogy
Uncharted trilogy (it's surely coming)
Flower collection

You can get a 4gb Xbox360 with Kinect for $299 at the moment.
Around $499 for a 250gb with about 3 games.

I think i wait a little bit more and buy the PS4. Hopefully it wont be fat as PS3 was on launch. I am also pretty sure that this new PS3 super slim version wont be slimmer than the PS2 slim.

[DeviousOne]

I hope we get some info on this soon tired of seeing rumors for a super slim lol

I agree mostly with that list. I'm sure a couple games like MGS4, Demon's Soul, Yakaza games, WKC, Ratchet and Clank Collection,LBP, Motorstorms and Heavy Rain would be really cheap by now too and would well be worth looking at. There are some great PSN exclusive games as well as others pointed out so depending on what games you like there is a huge backlog of cheap exclusive games you could enjoy. Oh and Heavenly Sword was a nice game too if you find it cheap. I know Lair got terrible reviews...but they did fix the controls with a patch to not have to only use the six axis...and even then I still liked the controls...I liked that game despite what others say. You could probably find a cheap used copy for a few bucks somewhere.

As for Resistance...the first was the best...but it has aged a bit...the third was still very solid though and a good shooter if you enjoy that. You will probably be disappointed by the second but who knows...at the prices these games are....definately worth a look.

[radgamer420]

The Motorstorms are good and I was one of those who really enjoyed Heavenly Sword as well.

Holly heck...

Got say thats the cheapest Ive ever seen a PS3 in NZ for.

And its the 320gb model...your currentl paying $100 more usually for the 160gb model....
Are they clearing these out for something new???

[snooper71]

That's a damn good deal!

Polish site Polygamia made the following discovery:

[Kuro]

Hmm..That's interesting

[Nitey]

Exciting. My brother is in the market for a PS3 so good timing : ]

[AaronSOLDIER]

I'm betting its the exact same design but a smaller square and a flap up lid, I doubt they'll take much off the thickness if anything.

[DeviousOne]

Interested to see what it looks like for the right price ill def scoop one up!

The heavily rumoured super slim PlayStation 3 has been advertised ahead of its expected Tokyo Game Show reveal this week.
Polish website Polygamia.pl (via TheSixthAxis) reported on a picture found in a promotional newsletter for Polish electronics store chain Media Expert teasing a new PS3 model alongside a 28th September date. Sony's TGS press conference begins at 5am UK time on Wednesday 19th September. The new console may release on the Friday, 28th September, then.
Notes provided to retailers suggest two models: 12GB and 500GB. The 12GB model will cost €199 (around £160). The 500GB model will cost €299 (around £240).
Images of the machine depict a black device labelled as a PS3, but with a ridged texture and what looks like a sliding top panel. Word on the grapevine is it looks like a toaster. Yum.
All eyes on TGS. Eurogamer will be there reporting live from Sony's press conference.

Its a 12gb now?

[DeviousOne]

12gb is fine it be mostly a blu ray player in my case and to stream netflix

[Kuro]

It's fine by me I'll just go out and buy a larger hdd after.

[davin_g]

Microsoft has proven you can sell one with no hd so to me that is not an issue. Especially when people can install their own size hd for anywhere from $40-$100. This is a great price for entry level gamers. Not hardcore gamers who use PSN and the PS3 as a media center.
