So I have a part time job at mcdonalds (lol) and i've been wanting to get a ps3 for some time. I finally was able to start saving money (i cant save that much because I dont really make that much to start with and bills tear it to peices.) Anyways I have about $100 or so and by my calculations, I should have enough money around the 1st of september ($535). Well thank you sony, thank you so much for fucking discontinuing any actually good ps3 models out there. Here's to hoping i can find a refurb 80 gig with backwards compatibility, memory card readers,and extra usb ports so I can have the "multimedia powerhouse" that was promised. Anyone else get screwed over by crazily assuming the MGS4 80GB sku would last more than like, a month? ____________________ |

I wouldn't be surprised if we see another model by Xmas. The shuffling of models has no end in sight, I'm pretty sure they've even outright lied about it.
There isn't much reason to use a ps3 for backwards compatible games on an sdtv, but some look quite a bit better on hdtvs. So that's where the feature shines. The ps3 upscaler is less blurry than most tvs. ____________________ |

Exactly. I'm going to get an hdtv (eventually) and I want a decent ps2 picture on it. Not to mention the inconvenience if I had to buy ANOTHER ps2 (been through 2, both ending up broken because of my modding them ) and I have no place for a ps2 and those damn wires etc etc. Total inconvenience plus it would look like shit on my new tv. I guess the only thing i can do is hope a nearby gamestop will have the 60 GB or at the very least the 80 with limited BC around September. And as far as multiple SKUs go, Sony confused the average consumer. Yea, MS has had as many SKUs, but they are easier to understand, the only real difference is HD space (or lack of, but i don't even count the arcade versions lol) and Sony's have been more confusing, if only because of BC misunderstandings. Oh well, not much I can do but wait and see. If I have too, I'll go to ebay ____________________ |

Posted by cory21391Maybe after the first one broke you should've STOPPED MODDING THEM! Then you wouldn't have to buy a third PS2. ____________________ |

HAHA good point, good point! But still, I wonder if that software only BC update has ANY validity at all.... ____________________ |
