Sony today introduced a new version of its PlayStation 3 Slim: It boasts a 250GB hard drive, more than twice the memory of its predecessor (120GB). The new console is launching just in time for the holiday rush, on November 3rd. It will run $349.99.
The new new PS3 maintains the slim form factor of its 120GB counterpart. That console, launched on September 1st, moved more than one million units in the three weeks after it was first made available. Sony will continue to sell it alongside the version with more memory.

Holy crap that's a lot of storage for a gaming device. I mean, to be honest, it's just about finding 2.5-inch SATA hard drives and cramming them into the chassis, but still - I think that's a lot of space.
Now because I don't have a PS3, I wonder if you can do like you can with the XBox 360 and essentially download your games to the drive so they'll load faster. I imagine so, because it seems like a waste of space for downloadable titles, even if they're several gigs!
