Great upgrade.
Sony did the right thing with taking away the piano black finish and redesigning the font for the ps3. This system feels extremely solid and well built, like most of Sony’s hardware. If you have yet to get a PS3, this is the time to jump on. The system is cheap now and very small. Well done.

description
The internal design architecture of the new PS3 system, from the main semiconductors and power supply unit to the cooling mechanism, has been completely redesigned, achieving a much slimmer and lighter body. Compared to the very first PS3 model with 60GB HDD, the internal volume as well as its thickness and weight are trimmed down to approximately two-thirds. Furthermore, power consumption is also cut to two-thirds, helping to reduce fan noise. While inheriting the sleek curved body design of the original model, the form factor of the new PS3 system features a new meticulous design with textured surface finish, giving an all new impression and a casual look. With the compact body and casual appearance, the newly introduced model will appeal to a wider audience who are looking to buy the best entertainment system for their home.
PS3 combines state-of-the-art technologies featuring Cell, a processor jointly developed by IBM, Sony Group and Toshiba Corporation, graphics processor (RSX) codeveloped by NVIDIA Corporation and SCEI, and XDR memory developed by Rambus Inc. It also adopts BD-ROM (Blu-ray Disc ROM) with maximum storage capacity of 54 GB (dual layer) , enabling delivery of entertainment content in full high-definition (HD) quality, under a secure environment made possible through the most advanced copyright protection technology. To match the accelerating convergence of digital consumer electronics and computer technology, PS3 supports high quality display in resolution of 1080p as standard, which is far superior to 720p/1080i.
With an overwhelming computing power of 2 teraflops, entirely new graphical expressions that have never been seen before will become possible. In games, not only will movement of characters and objects be far more refined and realistic, but landscapes and virtual worlds can also be rendered in real-time, thereby elevating the freedom of graphics expression to levels not experienced in the past. Gamers will literally be able to dive into the realistic world seen in large screen movies and experience the excitement in real-time.
*Based on our tests conducted so far, all PlayStation3 games appear to be region free.

Ni No Kuni Console
I loved the game so much I wanted the special console that Sony only produced for Japan. It is a beautiful cream color with a small etching of Mr. Drippy in one corner. Even though made for Japan, I was able to plug it in and have it work in the USA without any special adapters or transformers. This is my new pride and joy.

A sharp spine on a nice chick!
No suspect that it was an awesome console for FF fans, but not all FF fans know JPN...If that console does not include the FFXIII-2 version JPN, i would bought it immediately.

Beautiful system
I can't be happier with this purchase, which is my first FF console ever. As an FFXIII fan, it just feels really great to have one of this system to play on. The console itself looks just like in the picture, a total beauty. Super glad that it has Lightning too, probably the main reason why I just had to get one. Thanks to Play-Asia for its fast shipping and great packing, I received it just in time for Christmas.

I love my new Ninokuni Slim^^
I love studio Ghibli and i have been thinking of switching to the new slim format since my original ps3 metal gear solid edition sucks so much energy even when turned off! The color is like a pearl shimmer pale yellow/gold. The ps3 logo is written in gold. The only thing that somewhat disappointed me is the asian version lacks the hardbound manual book >

In case people wonder about the faceplate
The faceplate is indeed made of plastic shell, not decal sticker as some people might assume. It fits snuggly around the top of the PS3, and I don't think it hinders heat dissipation as most of the heat comes out through the rear vents and concentrate at the bottom rear left of the console.
It's a nice looking faceplate and overall, the bundle is a good buy because you're getting Uncharted 3 Steelbook at a cheaper price :)

This console is beautiful. The artwork is very stylish and the metalised logo makes it look distinguished and elegant.
Of all the special edition consoles, this is the definitive one. I see this becoming a very hot collectible in following months.

Fast shipping, Nice packing, Perfect condition. The console work great and I can install so many games with almost 300 gb free spaces. The console don't come with HDMI cable so if you want to play in HD, you will have to buy it separately.

The system runs very cool, being a YLOD victim on my 40GB PS3 reliability is VERY important.
Excellent service from Play Asia.

PS3 Slim Console - White
Although it has lost the backwards compatibily, this version of the ps3 is an improvement. It's lighter, doesn't heat up as much and it's a lot less noisy.
The white version of the console looks better in person than in the stock photos.

Nicely done
It lost a few things, but none of them matter to me. I don't ever play PS1 or PS2 games. It's a good quality Bluray player for the price and not to mention it's a gaming system. They slimmed the size down and reduced the price. I love it!

Nothing even comes close
But the loss of backward compatibility, a Wi-Fi N-compatibility, lack of custom OS Installation and less-than-sweet slim looks hurt a bit. Otherwise, it would be 5 out of 5! :-)

Awesome Machine, Awesome Color
I think I was only one of two people to get this console on Play-Asia in this color at exactly midnight. Love it. Sexy titanium blue and of course a great machine.

Looks nice and have some nice efects.
When the console gets too hot (and that's not so rare) it can crash on some heavier games, but that's probably just a problem for people that live on hot places like me.

The console's color is awesome but the size is not as slim as I expected. Thank you PlayAsia for bringing this cool product in!

PlayStation3 Slim Console - NBA 2k11 Value Pack (HDD 320GB Black Model) - 220V Sony Computer Entertainment
Awesome buy and would recommend to anyone. Originally I had the PlayStation 60gb and I can tell you this PlayStation runs close to silent and cooler in comparison with the older PlayStation’s. Do not hesitate it’s a good buy and the 220v means all you need to play in OZ is a plug adapter no need for an up down converter. Great product awesome service and I will be using Play Asia again in the near future.

Buy the most powerful gaming machine now with the most reasonable price. 320G harddisk really satisfy all sorts of gaming, video, music, photo and other internet content needs of everyone in the house.The white color also comes a bit more elegant than the dull black one. I always recommend white if PS3 slim edition they are talking about.

Great System!
I have previously owned both the playstation 1 and 2, and this one is yet the best. Sony does a good job keeping up with the graphics and console features. I love how this system can play blue-ray movies and even save files to the harddrive. This makes game loading and movie/music watching/listening very easy and quick. Great system!

Great Upgrade to the Console, Beautiful Special Edition
This is my second PS3 after having one of the original 80GB Backwards Compatible models (USA). I have to say I love the new form factor, the noise level is dramatically reduced, and the sheer beauty of this special edition console is unexplainable.
Some things of note:
Region 2 DVD Player (Importers Beware)
Region A Blu-Ray Player (Japan/USA/Asia)
True 1.3 HDMI Out over Blu-Ray meaning Bitstream Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master works compared to the FAT PS3's.
About the Game:
Only about 5% gets translated to English so be prepared to do a lot of research on the internet if you don't speak Japanese. The battle system is very good and the story seems like it's going somewhere I just don't know what's really going on. Will definitely buy the US version of this game when it releases separately.

WORTH IT!
So prices for this are pretty high but believe me they WILL increase over the next year when the game is released in NA and Europe.
The game itself is the new Final Fantasy VII, it has everything fans want, amazing story, characters (with ACTUAL character development unlike how lame XII's characters turned out to be), beautiful scenery, music and graphics... So naturally all items associated with it are going to skyrocket in value as they become harder to obtain, and this one will be one of the rarest.
Putting the sheer collector's value aside, the system itself is beautiful, Sony did an amazing job with the white matte design and pink etching (omg SO FABULOUS!!!! lol) plus it's 250GB, which in itself makes the system worth the extra bucks, especially if you are planning on playing FFXIV because it will undoubtedly take up some space as they release more expansions.
If you want Blu-Ray compatibility, make sure you get the JAPAN version 110V, NOT the Asia version 220V or else you'll be SOL. Careful when buying on eBay, many sellers fail to mention that... but you'll notice the price for the Asia version is about $100 cheaper. No DVD capability on either though... games will work fine :)
Seriously drop some money on this while you can! You won't regret it.
So prices for this are pretty high but believe me they WILL increase over the next year when the game is released in NA and Europe.

It will be a great console!
The long awaited FF13 lighting bundle has finally come to stock. Sony did the right thing with taking away the piano black finish and redesigning the font for the ps3. This system feels extremely solid and well built, like most of Sony’s hardware. If you have yet to get a PS3, this is the time to jump on.

Good Upgrade
Sony has done a good job on creating the slim version of PS3. Well, this one will at least save your electricity cost. One thing is that, they dont include the HDMI cable inside the package :(
Overall, good system and must buy if you are Sony fans

Great value
I missed out on buying the PS3 before, but now got the PS3 Slim, so my gaming life can begin again. Especially cool that the memory is 120GB -- you get 60 to 40 GB more for hundreds of dollars less, excellent.
