They have a newer and worse model coming out, based off the European version. Its cheaper because they ripped out the hardware components to accelerate PS2 backward compatibility.

Get a Wii instead

already have a wii
i want the ps3 too....mainly because of little big planet....but there are a few other games out there too.

the wii was great at first...but i havent touched it for ages. i know theres good games in the pipeline, but there is shite out there now.

Plus it depends how long you are willing to wait for possibly vapourware items like

Rumble controller:

Tuner + DVR:

i have no need to hold out for thr rumble controller....

as for the Tuner+DVR.....i have a feeling it will nt be worth it with BroadbandNOW...plus i use my mac for that anyways.

i also just found an article about upgrading the HDD...and it seems really easy. So i might try to find the cheapest 20GB version, and upgrade the drive myself.

there is no difference between the 20GB and 80GB models other than HDD...right?
