Do you own a PlayStation 3 Slim already? In case you don’t then you should get one this week. The 250GB PlayStation 3 Slim is confirmed to arrive in the USA on November 3 and it’s said to cost $349.99. That’s just $50 more than the 120GB model. Do you think it’s worth getting it?

It looks like Best Buy is almost ready to sell the console too as the new PS3 Slim has been spotted in Best Buy’s inventory. The picture has been taken in a Best Buy backroom in Houston, not that it matters that much. Most Best Buy stores must have received the console so you’ll probably find the 250GB PS3 Slim in a Best Buy store near you next week. Anyone excited yet?
