New PS3 Model [Japan only, lower power consumption]

(1/1)

Tatsujin:
Sony confirms new CECH-3000B PS3 model.

Sony’s opened up a website for the new model, confirming it will weigh 2.6kg, will feature a 320Gb HDD and a lower power consumption from 230 watts in the present model to 200 watts in the new one.

The new model will ship in charcoal black for ¥34,980, but will also have a 160Gb version for the hardware bundle for Tales of Xillia when it launches in Japan on September 8 for ¥37,980.

It’ll begin shipping on its own this month.

The CECH-3000B was first reported overnight.

Despite the new model Sony Computer Entertainment Europe’s told VG247 the information released so far was “for Japan only and we have nothing to share at this time” in regards to a European launch.

Tales of Xillia ...

TMRNetShark:
A new model, eh?

I like my PS3 slim already. I barely even use 10 GBs of the 160 that I have. I can move it easily from room to room with only 2 cables (HDMI and power cables). I don't really think that I need it all that much.

Bundled with a good game on the other hand is cool!

I would buy this to replace my slim with the tales of xilia combo if it was available in Canada...  unfortunately not  :(
