When we launched the new, slimmer, lighter PS3, one of the top requests we heard from you was to bring the white PS3 to North America. We’ve answered the call — for the first time in North America, we are introducing a bundle that features a Classic White PS3.
For $299.99 (MSRP), the Classic White PS3 Instant Game Collection Bundle comes packed with value. It includes a massive 500GB hard drive and a one-year membership to PlayStation Plus that includes a dozen PS3 games with the Instant Game Collection. The bundle hits store shelves on January 27th.
With a 500GB hard disk drive, the Classic White PS3 makes it easy for you to store your favorite games from PS Plus, like inFAMOUS 2 and LittleBigPlanet 2, along with movies, TV shows, music, photos and other PSN DLC. Your one year membership to PlayStation Plus gives you exclusive access to a host of features including:
If you’re already a PlayStation Plus member and want to add the new Classic White PS3 to your collection, the one-year PlayStation Plus membership can be added to your current PS Plus membership (thereby extending it another year).

So tell us, what do you think about the new Classic White color for PS3?
Well my ps3 Fat version died thursday “(. should i get this one or the normal slim model? either way, i need a new ps3. I got a $550 budget here. Any help is appreciated PlayStation Gamers
i think that sonny is presenting the vita wrong they should present it as a personal console not a dedicated handleld console becouse thats what the vita is a personalo home console
I am not really a fan of the whole sliding cover model but I do like the white color. This would of been nice if it was available maybe back in 2006. The 500 GB is ideal for all of the plus freebies.
Crystal is so cute. If I didnt own a ps3 already, I would buy this bundle.
@ 28 four24twenty – Oh please….we don’t need PS4…PS3 is the best machine out there….and we got unbelievable things that no one ever dreamed that games could achieve…we really dont need PS4…there are plenty of good games released and a lot more to be released….PS3 is above any system I really hope that Sony fulfill the 10 years life cycle.
My launch console just finally died on me so I’m going to pick this up.
Anyone know if I can just add that one year of PS+ to my existing PSN or is it only 1 year free with a new account? I had this issue with XBL.
I think so far its awesome.. wish this one would of came with assassins creed 3, but either way cant wait to have it at my place.=)
I gave my son my 160 gig slim and just paid this system off . Now we are a ps3 father son gaming duo
@56 (Psyrinn ): According to CVG “If you’re already a PS Plus subscriber, the year’s subscription included in the bundle is added to the end of your current term.”

And now Japan and eventually Europe are getting both a red and blue superslim PS3 with TWO contollers in the box!!! Why are we being ignored in the States?
*controllers
i hate this design. why the matrix look? just a “time killer” between new systems…looks rickety as hell…”sliding” the cover over? ew… i see bad things. just an opinion, guys. don’t get butt hurt :)
whats slimmer? the ps2 slim or the ps3 slim? 0.o damn might as well make the system small and slim like the cd cases hahahahaha but to the point whats with all the slim design its not a god damn car or airplane or is it??
I’m just going to import any color that i want that happens to be available from Japan because these superslim systems are not region locked
Great! More ways to suck us into bull poo! Waste more money buying yet another ps3 with 1 year sub only to get poo titles anyways….
P.S; hater comments incoming!
P.S.S I dont read comments after i post so i dont plan on reading what you have to say after im done posting this
I decided to update our 120 GB PS3 Slim to the Classic White 500 GB since we were very rapidly running out of disk space.
Both my wife & I love the fact of the top loading disc tray.
are the rumors about a Kingdom Hearts reboot true??
if its true my life will be complete.
How long is it available?
Can you play PS2 games on the 500gb White Model?
