Sony's 250GB PS3 slim is already available in the UK

Sony’s existing PS3 slim – which has a 120GB capacity – currently costs $300 Stateside, but the more capacious model will retail for around $350 (£214/€234).

UK-based gamers don’t have to worry about being left behind for once, though, because the 250GB PS3 slim is already available here for around £285.

A 250GB PS3 slim bundle pack including a copy of videogame Uncharted 2: Among Thieves will also be released in the UK on 19 October. ®

I get batfastad.

There is nothing more annoying. However at least for the Xbox you can buy external box's that house them :) and look like a pair of dogs mateing equipment.

I quite fancy a PS3, annoying that this one does not supprot PS/2 games, however I will live. I would like it more if I could get a 3rd party case that looked like the shizzil.

@Daniel 22, yes you do blasphem. - you have no sole.

@batfastard

I know this is probably blasphemous... but why not just put it on top of your stack of AV equipment?

Yeah but...

Can it play my old PS2 games and stack nicely like all other AV equipment?

Please can console designers consider doing something that's not in a fancy annoying shape box that has to sit on its own outside my AV cabinet?
