Should I SELL MY 20 GIG PS3 to get a 60 gig PS3?!

So I curretnly own a 20 gig ps3 but lately i have been thinking about selling it to get a 60 gig but i havent decided. I figure If i sold it on ebay for about $400.00, I would just need $220.00 more and I could get built in wifi and a bigger harddrive, does anyone else own a 20 gig? I dont even know why i bought the 20 gig to begin with, I bought mine at toys r us at launch and I could have got a 60 gig but at the time i just decided to buy the 20 gig and use the extra $100.00 for the protection plan and a extra game but now I wish I would have bought the 60 gig. Also if i do decide to sell my 20 gig PS3, how can I back up my game saves, because I have my God of war 2 files saved on there along with my resistance game files saved and I havent beaten either games yet.NeroMayCry85

sell it and get a 360 so you can actually do something with it.whoisryanmack

But no WiFi or built-in card reader.

You can easily get a 100-200gig HDD for $40-$80, and upgrade it yourself. It slides right in.

WiFi adaptors are cheap, there is no point, now that you have one.

My buddy just got a 120gig for $75. He didn't even get a great deal, my point is deals are out there, I suppose I shot a bit low, but if you are going to spend $40-$80, you can certainly get a fantastic deal.

You must be confusing Sony and the rest of the world's real-life pricing with M$ 360 pricing.

Those aren't the same, sadly.

Yep, it sure is 2.5 inchs Samsung, and for $10 cheaper he could have got a SeaGate. Samsung makes great stuff. 

[QUOTE="whoisryanmack"]sell it and get a 360 so you can actually do something with it.NeroMayCry85

an extra $200+ for wifi doesn't seem like a worthwhile investment, wifi is cool, but since u already got the 20gb, i'd say, save your money for games and just move ur ps3 and router closer to each other, and just hide the ethernet cable behind furniture..

Once you confirm that it is indeed possible, are you suddenly going to like the PS3 more? Are you going to start to praise Sony, or Bash M$?

You need to ask yourself why you care. Why do you care?

The Grass is green for all consoles in some regard, and the sooner you realize that M$ isn't all peaches and Cream the better. You already know this about Sony, why not learn more about other companies at this point?

With a name like PS3_3DO, I doubt he will ever take his fanboy goggles off. And to the TC, perhaps you can find a cheaper solution. Is the Wifi going to be really needed? Can you buy the Wifi adaptor instead of buying a new PS3? Wifi is very very convient for me right now, but its not worth wasting $200 extra dollars on.

I do see what you mean, but the ratio of haters for PS3 and 360 aren't even. I am evening the odds. If I do see something like that (Regarding 360 hate) to an extreme, I'm there, but I usually see the opposite extreme. The Hatred for the 360 isn't even as brutal it seems, here at SW.

If this were a different site, you would get to see another side of me, but here, It's mostly PS3 bites kind of stuff for most of the topics.

Anyways, I can't wait to play the 10 new songs in GH2 for 360, seeing as that just came out.
