160GB PS3 Slim, 320GB Move bundle coming to US and Europe this fall

The leaks weren’t wrong , they just weren’t the whole story. A 160GB PlayStation 3 Slim is indeed coming to the US — Europe, too — but additionally, there’s a heftier 320GB Sports Champions Move bundle. The former standalone console is available now stateside for $299, and according to the GamesCom press conference, Europeans will have to wait until October for 299 Euros.

White PS3 Slim with 160GB HDD hits Japan July 29th, new 320GB HDD option

The new Xbox 360 is here — we go head-to-head with the 360 Original, PS3 Slim, and Wii

Although we had a chance to play with the new Xbox 360 at E3, that was under Microsoft’s gentle supervision — now that the stealthbox is hitting stores and we’ve got a couple of our own to play with, we’re ready to dive deep and figure out what’s what. In person in the living room, the new 360 isn’t quite as small as you’d think — although it’s definitely thinner and narrower, Microsoft clearly had to jury-rig its big “lift off the old Xbox to reveal the new one” moment at E3 , because the new unit is actually a bit deeper by about a half-inch. We’ll forgive them in interests of show business, but just know that you won’t be saving a ton of space with this new version.

Sony: Don’t turn on your PS3 until PSN bug is fixed

Uh, wow . That PlayStation Network issue that struck late last night has officially ballooned into a full-on PlayStation disaster: Sony is now saying you shouldn’t use “fat” PS3 models at all , since a clock-related bug might cause data loss.

Sony considered SSD, network storage for PS3 Slim

Could the the PS3 Slim have been even slimmer? It could have, according to Sony’s Masayuki Chatani, but it would’ve cost you.

How would you change Sony’s PlayStation 3 Slim?

For the most part, we’d say that Sony addressed the concerns of many when it introduced the PlayStation 3 Slim . The console was smaller, cheaper and easier on the eyes, and of course the 120GB hard drive didn’t hurt matters either. That said, we know that the redesign didn’t please everyone, and we’ve heard more than a few PS3 diehards complain about the new design
