The Sony PlayStation 3 games console has shaped up for summer, the PS3 slim on the outside has a smaller and lighter body than the original. It has however lost some of its original style with the glossy piano black finish being replaced by a cheaper-looking matte plastic.

Inside features upgraded Cell processor, 120GB hard drive, built-in wifi, better cooling mechanism and HDMI output. Yes, it still plays high definition video games and Blu-ray disc. Entertainment includes on-demand movies, digital comics plus Australian PS3 owners will have access to optimised TV content from the ABC channel. PS3 Slim also earns some green points by consuming 34% less power. PS3 Slim will be available from September 2009.
