I don't mind it. The new logo fits with the new design, but I can't imagine the slim with the old logo.

I do prefer the Spidey font though, it looks sleeker.

But you did not mention the new PS logo on it though......the white one.......that you can turn upside down etc.

I have no preference, but changing it was kinda dumb from a branding perspective, because the game cases and probably the startup screen still use the Spiderman font

.................and cheap.HarshGamer

thats exactly what i was thinking, i keep saying that they shoulda used this design-

PS3 slim mockup

if i didn't already own a PS3 then i would like one of those in my house but the real PS3 slim design looks cheap and tacky.

that doesn't really matter. tbh it would have looked worse with it in colour with the current slim design.

Actually... I have a question....

Does this mean that they will be changing all the font on the side of the cases of the games etc.

Yeah, that would be nice........and original, considering the PS3 slim reminds me of PSone / Playstation 1 slim.

I don't mind it, looks similar to the PS2 logo so I guess the casuals will pick up on this and buy the PS3, ofcourse the the cheaper price will also help.

I think the new logo/font is absolutely awful. And if that link up there regarding a revised box art is actually legit, and that takes hold in all regions, this is a very sad day for PS3 owners.

Does any of this matter. Didn't they alter the branding of previous console redesigns, like PSOne. People criticize every move Sony makes in good faith. First people were up in arms over their "stealing" of the Spiderman font, now everyone is mad that they change it. They are intentionally trying to make it look less intimidating and more user friendly to go along with the lower cost.

Well on the other hand I have my own opinion about Sony's new model! I like it! I think it looks good unlike the bulky one. Im sorry but everyone has their own opinion!

I dont mind about the new logo, plus having the old logo on the slim just doesnt fit.

Word!! I remember when everyone was complaining about the Spiderman font... even though Sony made the Spiderman movies!!! Personally, I don't think it matters... I like both. The new box art for the Gundam Bundle looks good to me... very simple.

It's alright. I don't care, though, even though I am leaning towards the original Spider-Man logo.

It reminds me much more of the PS2, though. The old one got pretty stale on me later on.

Actually, i dont really have a problem with the new logo, but the positioning on the PS3 is terrible.

It should have also matched the slot area, make it shiny

Spiderman font is good for the full name and the Logo font is awesome for an abbreviation.

agreed. that'd be the best abbreviation, but even with that they shouldn't change the Box Art, they didn't do it with the Playstation 2 (except they made the "Playstation 2" logo a bit smaller) so why with this? i'm happy the way it is.
