Have one of those older PS3 models with the chunky body? Well, Gamestop is here with one of the more interesting solutions/offers out there:

Thats right, Gamestop is offering customers $200 trade-in credit toward a new PS3 slim. The old console must be in working condition, and include both the A/V Cables and a working controller.

Not a bad deal at all, if you ask us…it will encourage more PS3 owners to ‘go slim’, but at the same time, owners with a launch model with backwards capability probably won’t bother with the offer at all. The offer also has a limited time period as well: it ends July 18th, so you’d better hurry if a slimmer model is something you’ve always dreamed of.

No word on whether these traded in models will be resold to other customers later on; our guess would be probably so, in one form or another. It’s a Gamestop thing.
