This. The Best Buys wanted them gone. Gave my family a free Sixaxis controller and Heavenly Sword with the purchase.

I have a 40GB. All PS3 models actually play PS1 games, JSYK.2008-12-23 15:44:00

I somehow managed to score a used 60 GB in perfect condition, with MGS4, GTA4, GT5rologue, Rock Band + Accessories and a couple of Blu-Ray movies for a steal. Best 550$ CAD I ever spent.

I've been taking care of it regularly ever since. So far it's still working as great as the day I got it

To be very honest though, I don't play many PS2 games on it. I still see plenty of PS2s on sale at ridiculously low prices, so I don't think having no B/C is that much of an issue, at least not up here in Canada.

All 60GB models had backwards compatibility; the poll just has one 60GB option because the backwards compatibility is a given.

60 gigs are the best. Because...


It shows that you own one of the originally made PS3's
It has SD Slots and 4 USB plug slots
And it can play PS2 and PS1 games. (Which owns).


Even though it dosen't have the most memory you can always purchase a cheap hardrive (external or internal) for it. Which owns.

Now i bet you late buyers are wishing you had gone for it earlier so you could have been sitting down playing Timesplitters: Future perfect in beautiful blurry quality before you bought any PS3 games


60 gb for me... ?500 on UK release 23rd March 2007 and still running... Ohh yeh...

Lol, i bought mine for ?425 on UK release day from amazon and it arrived on the doorstep before i left for school

No, that's no B/C. All PS3s can play PS1 games, so your's is no B/C.

And yes, Whaaaaaale, there IS a 20 gig PS3- it was 500 dollars when it launched. It was soon discontinued due to being pretty much useless :/.

So downloading 'Home' on the 20gig is basically 1.5/10 of the memory :o ouch..2008-12-24 13:20:00

I have the newer 80gig pretty sure that means it is without B/C which is a shame since otherwise I would borrow Kingdom Hearts 1&2 from a friend.2008-12-26 04:24:00

I'm glad I bought one the early 60GB models. Still plenty of room on it for now, but I can envision having to upgrade the hd sooner or later.2008-12-27 08:44:00

I have the 80 gig, with backwards compatibility. Got it for my 15th birthday when it was still 700 USD. :/

I now find myself with only about 30 gig left. WTF?!?!?!
