40gb model with no backwards compatablity , no mulitcard reader

so we went from the 20 and the 60 gb models to just the 60. T
hen we got the 80 and the 60gb and the 60gb was dropped and now we get the choice between the 80gb and the 40gb.

no wonder the PS3 suffers from Idenity Crisis so much , they can decide if it's a game console , blu-ray dvd player or a multimedia HUB. And now how many model can you make that does not sell !

360 FTW

Yes but the 20 and 80 never was released in EU. This is gives them a cheapers option and with how cheap the PS2 is BC doesn't matter and when the finally announce it for the states for 400 it will be good as well because it gets closer to mass movement of consoles price with is around 250

Not really once PS3 gets a loaded lineup of games in 1.5 years, BC will be forgotten. I'm so sick of complainers, people complained about so Sony gives them a lower costing system at a cost of a few things which couldn't be included and yet more complaining, you can't have it all at that price at the current time with how much it cost to make PS3's

60gb is still not enough, seriously when they bring in download movies and then continue with the massive amount of PSN titles that were announced , 40 and 60gb will be gone very fast. I'm upgrading soon though to the biggest 2.5 inch internal which is like 250gb and that'll be good and I won't have to worry about upgrading again.

so like... 250gb.. i fill that ammount of space in 2weeks... and you void your warranty if you open it... and when they bring in movie downloads i expect a ton of companies will sue them... takes profit away from them...i expect the movies won't cost less than actually buying them anyway and i much prefer to have a physical thing than something on my drive which cost money and what if the drive/console breaks or the sony servers mess up? you probably just lost all your data.
They're trying too hard, it's pretty silly.

yeah but at least 2 will on the market in the coming months,360 will still have 3, nintendo took the right approach with only having 1

I think people should just stop buying all th elower versions. If you buy bigger to begin with, when all of the extas start coming out you'll be all set! Whether it be hacks, games, cracks, downloadable content (like that whole PS3 community thing sonys got coming) if you just buy thr bigger one to begin with you wont have anything to complain about.

Or.. you can wait for the bigger ones to get cheaper :) while buying the 360 in the meantime XD

paying for the biggest is useless, nobody is going to want to buy movies to load onto their consoles directly, they want proper cases. buying the biggest just costs more for the same thing, with the 360 you can add any size hdd you want anyway, so personally i would get a 360 core, an empty harddrive bay for the 360 and buy a 160gb s-ata drive on my fave harddrive website. biggest = best? bs.. it's called value and budget, something you rich kids don't understand.
