It's slimmer because, we now have the technology to shrink electronics as much as we can. And you have to agree that it looks way cooler and more high tech. It's beautiful!

Yes. I would definitely buy this new version of the PlayStation 3. The main reason for this is the price of the system currently $299 US a lot cheaper than the original price when it debut on November 17, 2006 for nearly $700 US. What Sony has done this time is give us a slimmer version this means less space being taken up on your room divider etc and it is very light. This system "use of a high-definition optical disc format, Blu-ray Disc, as its primary storage medium.10 The PS3 was also the first Blu-ray 2.0-compliant Blu-ray player on the market.(quoted from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Playstation_3 " allows you to watch crystal clear videos. It also allows you access to its "unified online gaming service, the PlayStation Network,(quoted from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Playstation_3). This system is a great buy you cannot lose out on buying it it has a huge amount of multimedia capabilities, you can also play previous Playstation 2 games, when you buy the system you will be getting a bluray disc state of the art optical disc storage medium, the new version is more energy efficient "consumes 34% less power than previous models". This system is the best one to buy right now and you have to take into consideration the amount of games that Sony and the developers will make for the system which would be a wide variety of genres unlike the other two competing systems. Smart move by Sony.

The PS3 slim is an improvement over the old PS3. It is smaller, quieter, and has a bigger hard drive (120GB vs 80GB) You can still buy the old PS3, but its the same price for an inferior product, so if you need a new PS3, the PS3 slim is the better choice. However, if you already have a PS3, it probably isn't worth it to upgrade.
