This is exciting news for PS3 owners. Gordon Vandyke Associate Producer of the game announced that The multiplayer for Battlefield: Bad Company 2 starts November 19, exclusively for the PS3.  You can check the announcement out here

According to the announcement from EA Games the players are going to enjoy the huge “Arica Harbour” map using “Rush” game mode in which 24 players compete to secure valuable crates using vehicles and infantry combat. The full game will feature four multiplayer modes. You can get the key to access the beta by pre-ordering the game at selected retailers.

Since the PS3 was released, rumours were flying around from the start that Sony will release a slim model of the console, as they’ve done with all previous consoles. Sony have previously denied these rumours along with rumours of a price cut, but today we can confirm, both are true. The PS3 slim will be launching at the start of September. In the US it will retail for $299, $100 off the price of the current PS3, €299 in Europe and around £225 in the UK. The current PS3 model will also be reduced then from $399 down to $299.

The PS3 slim is 32% slimmer, 30% lighter and features a 120GB hard drive, which should be changeable like the current models. Linux however won’t be seen on the slim, as the “Install Other OS” feature has been removed, to concentrate on gaming and entertainment, such as Blu Ray movies.
