I have a 40gb EU version. Although it's dead, the laser lens broke. So yeah, i am waiting for PS4. See no point in getting a new PS3 when PS4 is around the corner.

Haha "sounds like a vacuum" is the best way to put it. That's how my launch 60gb sounds after a few minutes. Still going strong though.

Yes I still have a PS3 fat. It is still working fine. It is the last version before Sony axed this model. The 60Giger it is the best looking model. I have Slim and Superslim. The original with spiderman font is the best looking version.

Yep, that's the one I have. $400 and didn't come bundled with any games, but I don't regret it. Have since upgraded the HDD to 250GB.

Nope, I sold my 80gig after 4 years of heavy use. The fans were squeaking but it still worked. Bought a 500gig superslim to replace it.

I still have my 80GB BC from the MGS4 bundle. I only use it as a Blu-ray player for bedroom though, and the occasional PS2 game. I do all my PS3 gaming on my Slim in the living room.

I have one. Dont like that i can hear my disc spinning and loading. Dont like not having my four usb ports either. Other then that all is the same, besides the ugliness.

Maybe I should stick with my fatty. I dont notice any loud sounds. I love having 4 front usb ports and all the different media slots (SD and whatnot) is nice. The new super slims just look nice.. I still have the standard 80gb drive which is always full. Probably better off to just upgrade that.

I do, I have an 80 gig. I bought a new HD for it though. Thing seems to work fine still. I want a slim, but with the PS4 probably coming out soon I don't see myself getting one now.

I still have my 40gig PS3 still collecting dust after all these years, I originally bought it to use as a blu ray player back then when PS3's where known to be the best blu ray players compared to the ones that were currently out at the time.

Yeah. Honestly my slim is just used for blu ray and netflix. Also just in case my 60 does die. Its easy to upgrade your hard drive.

One of my roommates has a fat PS3, but it's not PS2 BC. It's a sexy beast indeed. Makes me wish I had 599 US Dollars to cough up for the original 60GB version. :(

Hehe same. I put a 500GB hdd into it a couple years ago and never had an issue once.

Personally I think the third-gen PS3's look terrible

I still have and use my 60gb PS3 that I bought in July of 2007.  I added a 320gb HDD to it in 2008.

I just love the look of the fat PS3.  Big, solid and heavy.  Piano black finish.  It feels and looks of quality.  If it died I would pay to repair it, try to repair it myself, or I would seek one out in the marketplace.  I have no want for the ugly slim or the putrid super slim (my opinion).

Yes, silly as it may seem to some, console aesthetics do matter to me.

60GB Fat from day 1, sent it in once to repair a faulty USB port, hasn't had any other issues.
