PS3 Weekend Warrior – cracking down on the elusive PS3 Slim

The hunt for the elusive PS3 Slim continues as more rumors and rumor-fueling info churn up into the scene. With GamesCom coming up, we’re getting closer to getting our answers. Will it be a PS3 Slim? A price cut? Will it be both? Or will we wind up with the line of the year (We don’t comment on rumors and speculation)? I don’t think the last one will be the case. In the meantime though, you can update yourself with the latest in the rumor saga right here.
