You know we're big on numbers here at PLuGHiTz Live! so we just had to inform you of the huge success of this slightly tweaked, three-year old console!
After hitting the shelves on the 1st of September, Sony achieved 1 million total sales worldwide of the PS3 Slim. They go on to say in their press release that the new PS3 is available at a "highly attractive recommended retail price of ... US$299 and €299, with an extremely streamlined form factor and a pre-installed 120GB Hard Disk Drive. Furthermore, the reduction of power consumption and fan noise as well as the casual appearance have also become drivers in attracting a larger and broader range of users."
Whenever there's good news in SonyLand, we feel we need to share it with you -- you know, considering there is a love/hate relationship between Sony and Jon. But in all fairness, I think this a huge step for Sony. They may have finally hit their stride on the next-gen product. With the further implementations of the PlayStation Home, this could be a very good thing. What do you guys think?
