PS3 SlimThe 250GB PS3 is headed to the UK, folks. Sony’s umming and ahhing over whether to admit to the PS3 Slim with a beefier hard drive is over, and now we’ve got the word on launch dates and pricing. Read on to find out when you can double that disk space.

All that speculation over whether the 250GB PS3 is real or not has finally been ended, with Sony at last ‘fessing up. The 250GB PS3 will come in a bunch of bundles. The first will pair it with two platinum games or Infamous, another 250GB PS3 bundle with Uncharted 2 will follow a fortnight later on 16 October, and three days later a Blu-ray pack will arrive, switching out games for Wolverine, The Dark Knight and a remote on 19 October.

    Would anyone like to swap a big, old, noisy, 40GB PS3 for one of these lovely new ones!? Why is it early investors always end up feeling a bit cheated :-(

    I hear you. The PS3 Slim 120GB was £250 last month, and now you can double the hard drive space and get two games for another £35. Coming so soon off the back, I don’t see why Sony could have given more of a heads-up for potential PS3 converts.
