Tokyo Game Show is always an exciting time for gamers everywhere, as we all look forward to new games and other news being unveiled during the show. This year is no exception. We are always looking for ways to create better experiences for our gamers, and to that end, we just unveiled a smaller, lighter PlayStation 3 at the show.

The new PS3 will be available in two different models, with 250GB and 500GB HDDs which will allow you to store even more of your digital life. It also features a smaller, streamlined design that will look great as part of any entertainment system. The new model is approximately 20% smaller and 25% lighter than the current PS3.
In order to maintain the superior gaming experiences that you expect from us here at PlayStation, we are always looking for ways to change and evolve with your gaming behavior. You might remember the smaller models that we launched for PlayStation 2 and PSP (PlayStation Portable), and we know that many of you love the opportunity to add these streamlined models to your home. Additionally, as developers continue to release deep and rich digital gaming content, providing an option for larger HDD is essential, especially for games with large DLC packs, and full game downloads, as well as personal entertainment content. The biggest and best games live on PS3 this holiday season, and the new PS3 is the perfect way to play.
We are also excited to announce that the launch of this new PS3 model will include incredible additional value. The 250GB PS3 will be available on September 25th for $269.99 (MSRP) as part of a limited edition bundle featuring UNCHARTED 3: Drake’s Deception: Game of the Year Edition and a voucher for more than $30 worth of bonus digital content for the highly acclaimed digital title, DUST 514. This bundle offers more than $70 in total combined value.

News about the 12GB model

Available from 28th September 2012, the new PS3 system comes with a whopping 500GB of storage and will be closely followed by a wallet-friendly 12GB version. The 500GB will launch as a bundle with FIFA 13 for around €299.99, with the 12GB priced around €229.99 standalone, and owners of the 12GB model will be able to connect a 5 inch SATA internal hard drive with use of an official Mounting Bracket, or opt for purchase of an official PlayStation 250GB internal HDD. So whether you’re after instant access to memorable, fun-packed evenings with the family, or want to load up your system with tons of fantastic entertainment, we’ve got the right PS3 for you.

This is like going from a iPhone 4 to a iPhone 4S :dumb:. Not even a shape change. I'm sticking with my oG PS3.

Guess that means no PS4 any time soon. Also looks like they are trying to cut costs on production still after all this time.

Good to see

Milking was the exact word I was going to use. They have nothing better to show about the PS3 it's pretty much at an obsolete stage in terms of improvements and more features to come. A new design and, lighter and thinner means EVERYTHING when you're buying an iPhone or Smartphone, but when buying a console, it doesn't mean shit. I mean who's really going to show off the new design what value does that even hold?! It's the console software that means everything. I can't even believe how stupid Sony is for actually releaseing this shit.

I'm glad hackers merked the PS3, they're all idiots who work there. (Not trolling on the ps3 PLAYERS, keep that in mind. I had a PS3 too, but you eventually switch to xBox, it's inevitable if you want to play with friends and have more features. )

Great News Smile It's design looks like the first Fat PlayStation 3 released 6 years ago and I really like it better than the slim that is out now! I'll go for the 500 GB model since my old Fat PS3 died this summer!

It's always had a disc tray, now it's just on the outside rather than being internal.
