Amazon.de has posted a listing for the highly publicized, yet never fully announced, PS3 Slim. There is no price point, and very little decipherable information. However, a listing does show that Sony may be in open communication to retailers about the newest PS3 iteration.

    idk if it’s real or fake, it could be photoshopped

  2. KnaveX Says:

    Dre, thats looks exactly the same as the one in the article pic, if its real it kinda sucks that they just slimmed it, but didnt make it smaller. But whatev, it looks nice.

  3. skullking123 Says:

    well I like how the Slim looks like in the picture. Doesn’t look as ugly as the other pics made it out to be

  4. Jonathan Leack Says:

    I hope these leaks don’t hurt the announcement/sales. I can’t wait to see what goes down.

  5. Steven Garcia Says:

    I hate leaks. They ruin the surprise. :(

  6. Zoibie Says:

    Agreed with skullking, it doesn’t look too bad in that picture

    @ Dre

    I searched the ASIN number from the American one in Google, and it came up with the source we used for this article. :D

    if placeholders are coming out, something is happening soon.

  11. FiftyQuid Says:

    I hope you can stand the new slim on it’s side. I have mine standing and it’s perfect that way. Looks like they got rid of the silver trim too. I’ll miss that.

  12. giese095 Says:

    @ FiftyQuid – I doubt that you’ll be able to stand it on it’s side without some sort of stand attachment with how slim it looks. Also, is anyone who already has a PS3 actually planning on buying a slim to replace their old one?? and if so why?? I guess I just don’t see what the benefit of a slimmer model is other than taking up less space, but I can’t see anyone not having enough space for the original.

  13. JackC8 Says:

    Pretty cool, hope it’s true – after listening to all these rumors, it better be :) I guess everything was leaked before E3, so if they’re going to announce this at whatever event is taking place today, it’s par for the course that it be leaked early. Won’t be buying one myself – after spending $400 for the one I’ve got, I’ve finally gotten to the point where I can actually start buying some games for it!

  14. wtGp Says:

    who gives a crap about how it looks, that’s very feminine of people worrying over appearances of a console. What everyone should be talking about is the extra HD memory seize, features, and tech they added to the slim

  15. shadowjin Says:

    @WTG

    are you serious? lol.

    Its the same nothing different..(wild guess)

  16. Christopher Lancaster Says:

    No way will I upgrade. No offense Sony. I’m perfectly happy with my PS3 now. I upgraded the HD to a 500 gig and I’m not really worried as long as it works with the pspGO. Otherwise my games, movies, and music work just fine the way they are now, and why change when the one I have now isn’t broken. Granted…if it decides to blow up or something I’ll consider it.

  17. hissygoose Says:

    any idea of a price from the Germany site?

  18. B1gg_Randall Says:

    So I guess this is true…
