Sony PS3 Slim About To Get Confirmed. Original Console To See Price Drop


Sony PS3 Slim rumors have been floating around for some time now and the unofficial word is that Kazuo “Kaz” Hirai head of the Sony Console division will make the unit official sometime next week.
The PS3 Slim should officially be announced today at GamesCom in Cologne, Germany and is expected to by released in time for the UK and US Christmas shopping season.
The move shouldn’t surprise Sony console gamers considering the companies history of releasing slim versions of their systems including the PSPOne Slim and PS2 Slim models. Although the slim version of the PS3 with built-in blu-ray definitely makes this release the best to date.
No word yet on pricing, although Sony has been pretty good about releasing street prices for their Slim units once there announced, so I’ll keep my fingers crossed for official pricing at some point today.
In other Sony Playstation 3 news, the company is expected to make a price drop announcement at GamesCom today, a good sign that the PS3 Slim is on it’s way. [via Pocket-Lint]
