There's still not a peep about whether we can expect any of the 250GB bundles meant for other territories, but

I feel like I bought my PS3 at the worse time, right after they cut BC and right before the gigs started climbing...I think mines like 40G. But hey, no regrets, I'm still getting a belly-full of Demon's Souls from it.

Well, if you have a 40GB, you do have SACD playback capability! Last model with it.
Rejoice!

I still have my original 20GB PlayStation 3 launch unit that came with Talladega Nights on Blu-Ray. I of course swapped out the hard drive since I ran out of space and I have a 120GB. I don't think I need any more. It's perfect, I have all my media on it, and still have around 40GB to spare :)

Yeah I think the 40GB SKU does not play SACD, I believe the MGS/Motostorm 80GB were (CECHE01).

All the 80 GB models from 2007 have SACD support, 4 USB ports, have Software-emulation for backwards compatibility, and have CECHE as their production model.
The 80 GB models from 2008 onwards don't have SACD, lost 2 USB ports, and also lost backwards compatibility.

What? I need one for my bedroom. My 11 year old cousin (who was forced to live with me for a year by my goddamn aunt) plays my PS3 in the living room all day. I don't know why I got downvoted.

Why not just kick him off? Or during the day, make him go to school (because it's, you know, the law and stuff.)

He does go to school, if he didn't I'd be in jail. He plays my video games before school, after school, and when I come home from work he still plays video games. I give him a time limit, but he doesn't give a shit and plays all he wants. I hate dealing with kids. My girlfriend wants to move out because of him. I hate my fucking aunt.

It's ok. He's an only child and didn't have much to do when he was living with his parents, so my aunt sent him to live with me. He's a huge pain in the ass, but we've gotton along pretty well. I probably will lock my PS3.

Actually, Let's Tap in on the Wii, sorry.
This is unprecedented. Once the 250GB PS3 was sighted, I think we all knew it would be 100 bucks more, but 50? It's amazing how well Sony is selling the Slim, considering how terribly they've handled the Go launch, almost as if two different companies were responsible for the two products.

While this is a great deal, enough with the SKUs Sony. I have a hard enough time reading the PS3 comparison chart on Wikipedia as it is.

whats wrong with more choices ?
most everyone will not need 250gb on their game system, but some will probably like this, especially those that dont want to partially change their ps3 and install another companies HDD inside for more space.
what about all the 360 skus ?
elites with HDMI, elites without, pro, no pro, arcade with games, etc...
i welcome all the choices. i loved being able to buy a black 360 with more space in 2007 when the elite was announced.
and anyone with the slightest intelligence can figure out the differences between the ps3 sku's, hell most aren't even available anymore. and if research is too hard, the darn ps3 box in the store explains everything that comes inside to the consumer who does not know what they are getting before hand.

My comment wasn't intended to be negative. I'm sorry you fucks read it that way. My comment was in response to the MYRIAD of SKUs we've been hearing about for the past 2 months:

But again, this is what we've all come to expect from the SDF.

Just quit already Capitain. You've already made yourself look like a douchebag and you are only making it worse by continuing the charade. You tried to make a joke and it failed miserably. Stop digging the ditch.

I don't see how he was speaking negatively about the PS3 at all. I see an observation.

360 Pro
360 Core
360 Elite
360 Arcade
Did I miss any? Even if you count chip revisions, that's what, 3-4? Not to mention they were essentially the same SKU, just with a few tweaks for reliability. To the average customer they are no different though.

Wow. Everyone's a little sensitive today. Just relax people. We are still talking about a video game playing machine here. There's nothing to get so worked up about. Sony is just releasing another option for people to choose. There are lots of SKU's for both MS and Sony now and they can leave it up to the people to decide what the best deal is and... AAAAHHHH! FUCK YOU, YOU BASTARDS! I FUCKING LOVE GAMES TO THE MAX!
