maggiespaws 0 Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 (edited) Paws is nearly right, the 60 gig model is the first one which is compatibly with most PS2 games. The newer versions do not support PS2 games at all. (40g/80g) Even then the 60g wont play all of your PS2 games. Cheers fellas - bunch of toss. Ah well, 60GB it is..... Can't understand why they won't make it backwards compatible though - I take it the original Playstation games have no chance? I think it was something to do with the cost of the chip required to run both PS2 & PS3 games. Sony are (or were originally at least) making a loss on every PS3 they sold. The cynic in my says it's so that people ditch their PS2 and switch fully to PS3. I have no such compatibility issues with my 360 - it just isn't EDIT: I should also say, the HDD is dead easy to upgrade in the PS3 - Sony even tell you how to do it on their website. IIRC, it wont invalidate your warranty either (M$ - take note at the nice console company). I know this because one of the lads in the office has done it. You can even migrate your files across to the new drive. Buy the 60gb version and upgrade the HDD - Win Win.

khay 8 Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 No PS1 games are done through emulation so you should be fine. But some may have issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barney 0 Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 you paid 250euros to frame a shirt!? Was it solid gold plated or something! I actually rang around 5-6 places and they were all quoting the same or more. I charged it through work anyway as it was a corporate gift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jusoda Kid 1 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 You can have my 80gb one for £220, 1 controller, Tiger woods, Bourne Ultimatum, Singstar. New at Christmas, probably had about 5 hours use in total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 13915 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I wouldn't worry about hard drive size anyway. I have the 40gb, nowhere near full and it has quite a lot of content on it, If I was struggling I would use a wireless media server or an external hard drive anyway.
