PS3 Slim is a go

its not just the slim that's 299.

from what i understand, the 80 gig ps3 is also 299. so if you're uncomfy with the thought of buying a slim, the "original" (HA! pardon me i had to laugh at that) is also 299. you lucky buyers you...
 
whats going on rich, long time no see.

going foward the price cut on ps3 is probably enough on it's own for me to buy one. the slim ps2 however did have problems with durability so i would be hesitant to spend that much on something that might break. sounds awesome (astetics aside) but i'd be a bit leary on it until i know it will hold up

PS2s weren't durable. My phat PS2 broke after being dropped once. I've dropped my slim ps2 twice and it's still kicking (thankfully). The weight of a device plays a decent role in whether it will break or not. More the mass = greater the shock when it makes impact to the ground from a drop.

Anyway, I see nothing but good from the Slim. Only "bad" thing about it is the design, which isn't even that bad and will more than likely grow on people. I prefer the matte finish on the Slim a hell of a lot more than the gloss finish on the phat PS3s. No more stupid fingerprints or small scratches.
 
Design is fine, don't know why everyone's bitching. It looks nicer than the original. it's sleek.

It's all good to me. Right now I'm debatin how much I'll get if i trade in my PS3 to get that sexy beast. 80more gigs! I just hope it has 4 USB ports. Sucks when everyone in the room is constantly unplugging/plugging their sticks (we all use a different one).
 
I like the smaller design.

If I'm traveling with a console, right now I tag my 360 along. But I've always admired the PS3 being the full entertainment package. So the Slim is a win for me. Cause now when I game else where, Im packing more than a game console.

Wi-Fi connection leeching, built in Web browser, and Blu-Ray player ftw.

May have to punch out some people for a quick $300...
