"PS3 Slim console sales increase tenfold in Britain during first week on market; more than 150,000 units sell in Japan in four days, the most since launch."

This new wonder machine of Sony is selling extremely well in countries like the UK and Japan and other foreign countries outside of the Americas.

""The Xbox 360, Wii, and DS Lite all sold around the same amount last week, [while] the PS3 Slim outsold each of them by a ratio ofthree-to-one."

In Japan, PS3 sales have quickly reached the top with an official figure of150,252 PS3s sold in just 4 days after the PS3 Slim's launch. This has brought sales of all models to almost 151,000 units for the week of Aug 31-Sept 6 week, the biggest one-week for the console since its release in November '06.

Well I really don't understand the fact that this event created by Gamespot is no longer 'the greatest SUPER HERO CONTEST" because as far as I know people like Master Chief or Nathan Drake are not super heroes, just game characters and they are included in the battle. Anyways I was really disappointed that whenever it was a Nintendo or a classic character vs. a real super hero or a really cool game character, the public voted for their childhood favorite, which was obviously a classic character! I mean if Master Chief or Kratos or someone cool like that was in the 1980s and 90s, people would vote for them. Do I have a point? If you think not, read this comment in the Nathan Drake vs. Pickachu poll:

Pickachu was winning by 30% votes. Tell me if the comment below makes sense to you.

"I guess this is life. It seem's that in mankind's darkest hours we will have to put all our faith and our hopes either in a 4 feet italian plumber that rides an aligator or a 2 feet non-literate retarded mouse that shoot's lightning from his behind. God save us cos WERE DOOMED!, DOOMED I SAY, DOOMED!!!!!!"

Convinced?

:shock::o:D:roll: A $300 PS3 is coming this September, with a 120GB hard drive!!!(WOW). And its supposed to be 33% smaller and 60% lighter than the original PS3 which includes my 40GB PS3(AMAZING). And it will come with all the amazing features in the original PS3?(A MUST BUY).

It looks like the big dog is back in the business!:D In all my years of gaming, I had never seen such an amazing piece of hardware like the original PS3, and now I am mistaken and think that this new PS3 Slim will be a revolution in the gaming industry.

In other news, Sony announces price cuts to the original PS3's, 160gb being $399. But, I really think that the PS3 Slim is a better deal, I mean, its a difference of 40GB, 2 USB Ports, and some other small stuff.

Sony is also expecting to release some new motion sensing controls at the next TGS(Tokyo Game Show).

And one of the most awaited games on the PS3, Gran Turismo 5 is confirmed to be coming in 2010(No idea on the month or day)

Well thats a lot of news for one gaming conference, and more is expected!

P.S Sony you rock!!!!! :D
