Rumor: No PS3 redesign being announced at Gamescom

4.6
Sony's rumored PS3 redesign will not be revealed at next month's Gamescom event in Germany, according to a VG247 source. The insider also claims the 16GB version is real (and not a typo for 160GB), using flash memory. There is also mention of a potential PS3 price drop following an official announcement.

The Sony press conference at Gamescom had been used several times in the past for big hardware announcements. The PS3 Slim was officially announced there in 2009, as was a console price cut last year.

That leaves Sony with the 2012 Tokyo Game Show press conference if it plans to announce the new model with pomp at an established show this year.

-Robin- Can't wait to see what they have in store for us, although i'm still an xbox fan i do not hate on Sony. I love their PSP, and if i had the extra cash i would get a PS3 along with my xbox.


For the next gen consoles I'm thinking about leaving microsoft. The two consoles will cost about the same but in the long run you will be paying around 500 bucks just for live during the duration of the next console

I actually don't think that's the official look of it. if it is then i'd be pretty sad. Im looking forward to a NEW design. I Hope it's not... :(

Considering the fact that this generation of consoles are holding games back.

-Still no edit button?

I guess focusing on the next-gen console and not trying to milk this generation for every last red cent they can get out of someone. Just makes so much sense that it can't be right.
