The 1tb version is not lighter. Only the new 500gb model
So with the release of the metal gear solid PS4 coming out in september, will we see a redesign for that too?
the PS blog doesn't say anything about this PS4 being lighter. Just a bigger hard drive...
Thank god, the old one was so bloody heavy, sick to death of carting it around.

I'm over the matted plastic of Sony consoles. Bring back the gloss!
that's nice. Let's see when they announce one with a better processor that can virtualise old #PlayStation games too
8% more power efficient!
damn, nice!
