Sony has confirmed the rumors and announced the arrival of the new slim PS3. It’ll be out in the first week of September (September 1 in NA and Europe, September 3 for Japan), and will retail for $299 (or 300 Euro, or 29,980 Yen). It’s smaller and lighter, has a 120GB HDD and consumes 34 percent less power. So if you have been holding off buying that new blu-ray player, you have no more excuses.
