Heads up......PS3 Slim just announced at Gamescom - it's official!

[Raven]

Sony just announced "Slimline" PS3 at the Gamescom convention - keynotes to consider: It's available beginning of September, 34% less power consumption and 34% lighter (i dunno about no more heroes, but thank christ for no more blisters!) and....it's going to have a 120gb hard drive, and retail for 300 dollars, 300 euros - ?250 according to the article - new console revision, bigger hard drive AND cheaper - I fully expect all current PS3's to be ?200 or less when this rolls out.

While I wouldn't say it looks damn ugly, I do agree that the original model looks alot better, however the slim does look a damn sight better on display than those god awful leaked pictures made it out to be.
