One of many following just occurred today: either a GameStop employee just spilled the beans on an upcoming Sony announcement, or someone inside the retailer’s IT department has a cruel sense of humor. At any rate, IGN spotted a list today (since removed) for a slim PlayStation 3 with 160GB of storage, presupposed to be shipping today for $299.99. That’s unfortunately not the case, but while we’d wager a capacity increase is inevitable, it’d be infinitely more intriguing if that new harddrive came part and parcel with a pallette swap — something in white, perhaps. Hey, we are able to dream. It would be worth noting that Sony’s got a press conference lined up at GamesCom for mid-afternoon ET tomorrow; we’ll keep our German-trained ear to the ground, just in case.
