TGS 2012 | Sony Unveils New Playstation 3 Model

Sony’s 2012 Tokyo Game Show press conference had many great announcements, including the unveiling of their much rumored new PlayStation 3 model. The PlayStation 3 Super Slim model was announced in black and white, although the white version of the console has only been confirmed for Japan release.

Sony says that the super slim model has 20 percent less internal volume and is 25 percent lighter than the slim.

There will be different versions of the PlayStation 3 Super Slim in different regions.

In North America, beginning September 25, 2012, consumers will be able to purchase a 250gb bundle that includes Uncharted 3 and Dust 514, along with $30 worth of downloadable content for Dust 514, at the price of $269.99. Then October 30, 2012 Sony will be releasing a 500gb model for $299.99.

European and PAL Territories will be receiving a different line up starting with a 12gb flash memory model.
