Not having to go to work or have meaningful social interactions. Honestly if I had more then one console that would mean double the amount of games I would like to play. Who has the time ?

I keep hearing about how PSN is catching up to Xbox LIVE in terms of features and it is.

It is getting features that Xbox LIVE has and is therefore catching up.

BUT...

PS3 fanboys will never be able to pay 50$ for online service. You might get all other 360 online feature BUT never this one so...PSN = fail

You fail.

Don't hate me for your consoles shortcomings !

That's right buddy. I guess you could go ahead and write a check to Sony for 50$ just so you can feel as awesome as Live users but it just not the same. I mean, you don't even know what department to send it to , probably have to call customer service , a lot of hassle. But with the 360 there is a system already in place that makes taking your 50$ really easy.

How about a nice floormat and some decorative throw pillows?

I kind of wish this could have happened BEFORE I bought Demons Souls , Uncharted 2 and Borderlands :evil:

From my experience, It always forced me to format the drive when switching. I even switched two different 60gb drives and it still wanted a format. What are you going to spend all that extra money on?

Well they won't send me a check . It's going to be a Target gift card so… something from Target I guess . Maybe a 360 ?!

More questions :

Can I just put the Hdd from the fat PS3 in the slim PS3 ? Would it work Ok ? Can I just resume all my games ?

No. I think HDD's are auto formatted when you put a new one in. You have to back up the data in it.

Are you sure ? Every time I had to send the fat PS3 for repair I used to put in the old Hdd and then switch with the 320 Gb when it came back and I never had to reformat.

My question was more about whether the slim uses some kind of different internal OS so that when I'll put in the Hdd from the fat PS3 I'll get errors or something.

My PS3 got the YLOD for the third time tonight. First time was in January 2009 and then March 2009. I bought the console in 2007 ( 60 Gb) . Good thing I bought the Target extended warranty. They will send me a gift card for the original purchase price ( 599 $) since this is the third time that it happened and they will not try to fix it again. The strange thing is that all three times it bricked while I was playing games/movies rented from Blockbuster. I also have a 320 Gb/5200 rpm Samsung Hdd.

I have a few questions.

1. Could the Hdd be causing this ( the bricking started after I got the Hdd ) ?

2. Blockbuster ???!!!

3. Should I get a slim PS3 or try to find a classic model (are slim PS3 more reliable )?

4. Would my current Hdd fit into a slim PS3 ?

Thanks in advance for your answers !
