I tell myself whenever I see a PS3 display on a shopping window that I’m going to buy one under two conditions: when the market price goes down and if the price is good enough for its worth.
And Sony gave its answer sooner than I expected.
I’ve been given a link to a Yahoo! news about Sony announcing that there will be a slim version of Play Station 3 on Germany, during a gaming convention this Tuesday. It will be called Play Station Slim, and it’s scheduled for release in NA and EU on the first day of September this year. Hey, that’s just two weeks away! XD
What’s even better is that it’s going to be sold at a lower price than its predecessor at only $299 (around 14,000-15,000 Php). Judging from its shipping fees and all that, it would probably sell at around 20,000 Php once it hits our local stores. What makes it even better is that its performance is boosted, like they said, “33% smaller and 36% lighter. It’s also greener, using 34% less power.” And with a 120GB hard drive, what more can you ask for? :3
Fido Right now I’m thinking of changing my pasalubong list to getting PS Slim early this year, though that would compromise my chances of getting an iPhone 3G cheap. Weighing my chances, I would most likely ditch the iPhone idea and ask for a unit this September. Hopefully, Sony will have a big stock of it on its first day. >_<
