Wow... Slimstation is slim...

[borockman]

That's really slim!

[TeaOfJay]

God DAMNIT Sony.

...Wait, what do I care? My PS3 has backwards compatability. I don't need a slim version.

Unless this one is backwards compatable again.

[borockman]

Now if only the price got slimmed too.

...It looks even uglier than the current PS3 model.

[The Drunken Dishwasher]

Why I didn't predicted this, i'll never know.

[TeaOfJay]

I'm expecting Microsoft to come out with a slimmer version of the 360 because of this.

Not Nintendo. The Wii can't get any thinner than it already is.

they'll find a way

or they'll make one with ENTIRELY TRANSPARENT PANELING

[Dr. Wily II]

Why go thin, when you can go small?

[borockman]

I honestly think it looks like wii balance board.

I honestly think it looks like wii balance board.  

I would actually find it hilarious if we were fooled and it was actually Sony's version of the balance board.

The holes and such are just there for looks.

Supplemental link since it looks like the old one isn't working.

Looks cheap and fake. I'll leave this on the pile of salt stash until proven otherwise.

[Klavier Gavin]

Today, pictures of what appears to be a redesigned PS3 have appeared on Chinese message boards.

It must be a mod.

But yeah, I agree with PB.

...It looks even uglier than the current PS3 model.

Both look quite ugly IMO.

The plot is getting interesting...

[Protoman Blues]

It looks like the plot...*puts on sunglasses*...is slimming...*walks off*

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

[Jericho]

Dammit, my internet is borked to hell today... I can't see anything.

EDIT - never mind, saw the pictures, and good God is that thing ugly and cheap looking.

[Emiri Landeel]

What is a Slimstation 3? I only know the SNES and NES

[ST Jestah]

...That looks like a piece of cardboard to me...IT MUST BE 00DL3S OF FUN!! *sits on top of the supposedly new PS3 Slim* I'm on an aeroplane

[Gotham Ranger]

It looks interesting. Taking with a grain of salt, but if it adds good backwards compatibility, awesome.

[Protoman Blues]

...Sony-er? 

Anyway, as most of you are no doubt already aware, Sony has announced a slimmer PS3 coming out the first week of September.  Not only that, but it, and regular PS3's will only cost $299 now.  Oh, and there was something about new firmware and such, etc.  Either way, I definitely don't see this as a bad thing at all for those who don't have one.  So hurray!
