Now with the prices coming down and the guarantee of more people purchasing this console, one can be assured of more and more game titles being released for the PlayStation 3 Slim. It is hence not surprising to observe that ps3 slim preorder options for the latest offering from Sony, expected to release on the 24th of August, 2009,  is now available at leading stores like Kmart, Amazon and other leading stores with a price tag of $300.
