Sony launches the new PS3 Slim

Remember when the first PS3 dropped?  $600 bucks right? Well now Sony has a new and improved PS3 version called by some PS3 Slim… and the price… $300 bucks.

The Sony Playstation 3 was unveiled in August 2009 and in September 2009, became the top selling video game console for that month. (CNET.com)

There isn’t too much difference between the PS3 “Fat” and the PS3 “Slim”.  What you are not able to do with the “Slim” is install another OS on it and play PS2 games.  In addition, it doesn’t have an infrared port and online gaming, media, and commerce options are still lagging in comparison to X-box Live.

However, even though there aren’t any new features for the “Slim”, you get a 120 GB hard drive, smaller/lighter console, and all of the other features that the “Fat” has (Blu-ray, Wi-Fi, usb ports, etc.) but at a lower price.
