Heh, it is pretty awesome. Perhaps it's a little larger than necessary, but it should last until I get a PS4! :D

I like the 80GB, its played the 3 PS2 games I have (GTA Trilogy) which I've been happy about. And it froze once while playing GTA 4 but the patch has made it seemless. Oh and it froze online during a COD4 match once. But overall two thumbs up :D

Really? I have MLB 08: The Show and its run perfectly (Well other than load times which are a tad long :D, but that doesn't detract from its awesomeness!). And yes, I looked at the 40 and the 80 (In Jan the 60 was like 500+ used...) and seeing as I never had a PS2 (Gamecude child :D) the 80GB was the way to go (But a 60 would have been nice, but I didn't want a used console...).

Got the 80gig MotorStorm bundle from SonyStyle.com for $400 w/ 4200 Sony reward points (about $40 worth), so essentially $360, sick ass deal, oh and on top of that I got 5 free Blu-ray movies, ridiculous deal, couldn't pass it up.

Where and how did you get Nintendo emulators. What will I have to download them with (winzip, bittorrent, etc..) if you or anybody could help me, that would be great.

you have to download and install Ubuntu on your ps3 justs google Ubuntu on ps3 and you will be fine its a operating system on your ps3 that is similar 2 windows if you donlt really know what emulators are i suggesst you goolge that also.

ps you can either search torrent or use google and download files from websites for emulators(systems) or ROMS (games) but this is illigal unless u have the original copy... but who the hell is going to know?

almost forgot that you will first need a usb mouse and keyboard to work Ubuntu or whatever else u install (yellow dog)

I picked up a 40 GB model from Best Buy, sometime around late Jan or Feb of this year, which was convenience because for reasons not to be gone into right now, my job went kaputt and now I have much more time for gaming. I thought there was an issue with the HDMI with the PS3, but it was my bad, because the issue was with the cable. Replaced the cable, and now I'm so glad I didn't return the PS3 at the time, and then I would have had to start R&C all over again. That's my two cents.

I yeah, and like a schmuck I'm still waiting for Home...

60 gig, right around launch time. Couldn't be happier and his has to be the best SKU they put out there yet. Even though I did pay a higher price tag, I have BC and my ps3 = a ps2 = ps1 = blu-ray player = pc (kinda) .....etc etc. you guys know what it can do.

60GB, Circuit City, July 10, 2007

It was right after the price drop and Circuit City was already offering a free controller if you purchase a system before the drop. An offer no one could refuse. It was like paying $450 for a 60GB!

i dont understand the 40gb dislike, i think most of you on here are more "advanced" than most, because i really don't need card readers, and i dont play my ps2 hardly at all anymore. i'v have had zero problems with mine.

i got it for about £350 in november with resistance, ext pad and 300 on blu-ray at gamestation, in britain.

60 gig 7/7/07

Very lucky day, but the next day they lowered the price $100 dollars, but Circuit City took the money off for us.
