Redesigned PS3 caught on camera, up close and personal
The slimmer 250GB PS3 model (in black) will be available in the U.S. on September 25 for $269, bundled with the "Game of the Year" edition of Uncharted 3 and a voucher for $30 worth of content in the free-to-play shooter Dust 514, according to the PlayStation Blog. A non-bundled version of the new 250GB console will be priced at $249 eventually; however, a Sony press release notes that only bundles "will become available at launch timing."
The 500GB model will launch for $299 on October 30. The blog also revealed a special, limited edition Assassin's Creed 3 bundle was in the works, but did not announce price. In a press release, Sony noted that Japan will get the white model and that "other regions and countries will follow."
Europe and Hong Kong will also get their hands on a 12GB flash memory console on October 4, priced at €299 ($389).

MoDOT Can you guys get in trouble for posting this? or say the Xbox 720? I think so. If they close youtube channels for a video of a game leak witch a game would cost $60 what about something like this???
The main article is already on joystiqs site. And pictures of the new console were leaked AGES ago. If they didn't care then, they surely don't care now.

They would, But look at the picture, The PS3 is obviously on display so i'm sure Sony doesn't really care as its still a "PS3" lol.

TTG-DaBoMb Maybe the ps4 is further away then we thought. I can't see a company releasing a new model within a year of next generation release.
Just don't make sense...
I agree and this actually is a cool concept. With the cool concept for a console model and the ability to market a 500GB HDD, shouldn't they save their ideas for the PS4? Maybe it's the opposite, and they're doing this to show that the PS3 still has use and is an amazing console, and the PS4 will be even greater. That is from Sony's eyes at least.

Juggahax0r_TTG I'm just going to state the obvious .. PS3 has and always will suck balls .. There isn't anything better about it over the Xbox , and Sony is a horrible company who cares nothing for consumers ... This 'New' design is a clear indicator of how out of touch Sony is with what the world wants from electronics ... People do care what the case of the console looks like, some people will go to something else just because of the look , especially kids.
Fact: Sony has been losing money, bleeding money even, for about 8 years now ... The PS3 is not a good seller....
This looks like a set-top media player , not a gaming console .. The PHAT PS3 was the only one with a good aesthetic look to it, you can compare the Slim PS3 to most Sony blu-ray players in how it looks ... It's 2012 we want futuristic looking **** , or retro-futuristic **** like the Xbox 360 'S' takes it's design cues from the Original Xbox.
Exactly what I was thinking, this new console design looks like sh*t IMO! :?
