PlayStation 3 Slim Madden Bundle Coming in August?

[Ly91]

In the latest Listen UP (1UP.com’s weekly podcast) episode, David Ellis revealed a new rumor saying that the PS3 Slim is coming in August and that it will bundled with Madden NFL 10.

The transcript below can be heard at the 01:26:14 mark

“It’s gonna be in August. Everything I’ve heard says it’s coming in August, it’s tied with Madden.”

Sony already confirmed a three hours long press conference for GamesCom on August 18 and Madden’s release date is August 14.

According to Ellis that’s one of the reasons for Activision’s CEO “threat” against Sony – because they are tieing the release of the PS3 Slim with an EA game and not an Activision title.

Well unless my PS3 dies on me near the release or after the release of PS3 slim I more than likely wont buy it.
Nice idea though, hopefully it will come in a variety of colours :P.

[NB]

I agree with RGL. i highly doubt i will buy this unless my ps3 dies even then i would rather just fix it/ buy the current model. it will lead to the 'fat ps3' being cheaper so it will be a positive anyway even if I wont buy one it could lead to more people buying a ps3/ ps3's being cheaper so if you need to repair it or buy a new one.
