The rumors that Sony had once again redesigned the PlayStation 3 to be smaller and lighter have turned out to be true. A new model has just been revealed ahead of the Tokyo Game Show, and not only is it a slimmer unit, it?s also got more storage on board.
It?s not being referred to as the PS3 Super Slim, but that?s exactly what it is coming in at 20% smaller and 25% lighter than the PS3 Slim. I?m guessing it?s also going to consume less power than previous machines, but that detail hasn?t been released yet.
There?s actually 3 new models announced, but different regions will only be getting two of the three. There will be a 12GB flash memory console, a 250GB hard drive model, and a 500GB version for those with a lot of data to store.
The 12GB PS3 will not be available in the US, where as the 250GB PS3 won?t be available across Europe or Japan. If you do pick up the 12GB model you can expand the storage by adding your own internal SATA hard drive using a mounting bracket.
Focusing on the US, Sony has announced two models carrying a 250GB and 500GB hard drive. The 250GB model will be available from September 25, but you?ll have to wait until October 30 for the 500GB unit.
To sweeten the deal, and likely entice a few upgrades, Sony has also announced that it will be offering a limited edition bundle of the 250GB machine that includes Uncharted 3: GOTY and $30 worth of DUST 514 content. Apparently that equates to $70 of value in a pack that costs $269.99. The 500GB console will be getting a $299 limited edition, which includes Assassin?s Creed 3 and 30 days of PlayStation Plus membership.
All three consoles ship with a DualShock 3 controller, but Sony still isn?t including a HDMI cable and hasn?t embraced any faster wireless standards. What you may also notice in the images is a brand new circular stand for keeping the console vertical. However, it?s not included with the machine.
Sony has certainly timed the new console in order to catch the Christmas sales, but it?s intriguing that they are limiting the storage choices by region. Apparently they don?t think a cheaper, limited storage PS3 would sell in the US.
