Ok so it seems like Sony is using lower quality materials for the Slim because it's been two months a some days more since i bought my Slim and the metallic panel were the on and eject buttons are located is losing the metallic color. It looks like a small stain but it's not a stain it is actually that the panel losing the metallic paint.

Before you ask, yes i take good care of the system and i rarely use the on button cause i use the Bravia Sync feature.

I had one, it broke. Keir21

It depends on what you are looking for, in my opinion the first models are the best ones and superior to the current ones. I have one of the Slim models and before it i had a 40GB one and wile the new one look cool and is smaller for the the old models had a more expensive look to them.

Here's why i think the old ones were better:

1.The exterior of the old ones were more suceptible to scratches but were of highter quality and the top was like metal quality with the logo in it.

2.Rotable P Logo.

3.Power swith on the back of the power supply.

4.Four USB ports for games like RockBand.

5.3 SD card slots.

6.full PS2 games compatability (Made possible by internal PS2 component).

7.ability use Linux.

IN THE END IT DEPENDS IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR THOSE FEATURES AND ARE GOING TO USE THEM.

[QUOTE="jcopp72"]Backwards compatability will probably not come back, PS2 is being phased out.Rhen_Var
