what ps3 model should i get

hi everybody

i live in a Pal country and i what to buy a ps3 and i dont know Which ps3 model should i get

i heard that the Pal ps3 60gb and 80gb have Software emulation .

that means only the Ntsc ps3 60gb have Hardware (Emotion Engine) .

so what ps3 model should i buy Pal 60gb . or Pal 80gb . or Ntsc 60gb .

60gb or 80gb.

Or 40gb if your looking for something a bit cheaper, but BE WARNED: 60gb comes with 52gb, 80gb comes with 69gb, and 40gb comes with 34gb.

In my opinion, get the 60gb. Its the best value for money, and It will last quite long. 40GB will be over in months.

The best deal could be a 80GB. It has the best of the 40GB ( the console is really quiet ) and the best of the 60GB ( backward xompatibility , 4X port usb joypads ).

But I think it's only available in US.

So if you' re in Europe or a PAL country unless you can't find one, you should get a 80GB, but a 40GB is fine I think. And of course you can upgrade and change the HDD as long as it's SATA.

Oh, and 40gb cant play ps2 games. Nor can 20gb. But I doubt your gonna get 20gb - it runs out in about 10 days...louiscbrn

The 20gb can play ps2 games. It's reall hard to find one. The only missing is the wi-fi.

but im wondering if i buy a Ntsc ps3 will i have problems with going online and updates and stuff like that ( because i live in a pal country )

so the Ntsc 60gb ps3 have ps2 Hardware (Emotion Engine)

and the Pal 60gb ps3 have ps2 Software emulation ( am i right ? )

so that mean the Ntsc 60gb ps3 are better ....... ??

This is how all the Sku's are.

The 20 gig SKU will support PS1 and PS2 games but doesn't have a built in wifi (not sure about the EE chip in this SKU).

The 40 gig SKU is a very stripped down SKU that not only was memory card readers removed but any hardware that was used to support PS2 games was removed. Although it had built in wifi.

The 60 gig SKU in NTSF regions had the EE chip along with every other option, but the PAL regions always used software emulation in this SKU.

The 80 gig SKU only used software emulation in all regions.

But the thing is there isn't a large difference in the number of games supported between the hardware supported systems and the software supported systems. Really the safest and best option is buy a system from your region because there can always be some problems later down the road.

thanks big bro i really appreciate your time

you got me made up my mind

im going to buy the ps3 60gb pal i hop that i find one

I don't believe there are any PAL 80gb units out there. Anyways if you can find a PAL 60gb defiantly go with that, otherwise import a 60/80gb if you don't mind importing PS1/PS2 games or don't plan to play any at all.

I have one, and the wi-fi thing that's missing it really sucks,but what the heck!!! It's a ps3, I think I'll buy other ps3 later on.

Get the 40Gb, it has all the features of the others except the card readers+ usb. It's the newest model and has the lastest components. Emulation is a heap of crap on pal ps3s. Don't bother buying a U.S. ps3 because the import cost are alot. Just get the **** 40 Gb model cus you confused me. 20Gb is a heap of **** cus you need install space nower da doys (pain in the ass). 40 Gb will not run out like the others say.
