Electronics giant Sony has announced a new, slimmer version of its PlayStation 3 (PS3) games console.

The sleek machine is around a third lighter, a third slimmer and uses a third less power than the original, said Kaz Hirai of the firm.

Speaking at the Games Com conference in Cologne, Germany, he said the console would hit shops in early September.

It will also be around £50 cheaper than the original 2006 machine, costing £249.99 in the UK.

It will cost $299 in the US, 299 euros in Europe and 29980 yen in Japan.

Still love my PS3 more for its BlueRay ability than anything else. Ive enjoyed a few games on it like, nothing earth shattering though.
