Thirsty Conversations

It's Monday in North America! Time to give your all at work. Don't you think it's also time to give you very best opinion on what's going on in the video games world? GamesCom might eclipes E3, but that's just my take. What say you? Talk now, do it here.

Rumor: French website confirms PS3 Slim and Price cut

It’s just too hot to leave alone, isn’t it? But this time it seems as if we have credible news about the long rumored PS3 price cut, and new SKU, one PS3 Slim. French website JeuxVideo seems to have came across some information that solidifies this rumor. According to them, the price cut will be accompanied by a new model which Sony will announce at the GamesCom event in Cologne on August 18th, 2009. That’s only three weeks away folks! Asking Sony about this would be of no avail because they would use the same answer they always give, “we don’t comment on rumor and speculation.” but the evidence is now undeniable. It only makes sense that the giant would release the new PS3 and issue a price cut around that time, major exclusives like Uncharted: Among Thieves will be out, and the holidays are upon us, it seems like perfect timing.

The website also has an update which shows that the New model will retail for 299 Euros. It’s a rumor though, so please, take with a grain of salt. We will undoubtedly keep you in the loop, why? Well, it’s because we love you. I thought you knew that.
