Default tryin to find a 60gb PS3...

like the title says a friend of mine is looking for one but hasnt had any luck. is it true that theyre discontinuing 60/80gb models and releasing a 120gb one instead?

was searching through the forum and ran into that MGS4 bundle. is that still a go?

fuck that GB rating ... these consoles have such an easy HDD swap that it's not even worth the extra money anymore.

If PS2 playback is that important, then track down the 60. Nothing plays PS2 games better than a PS2 though.

msg4 bundle is real good deal because it comes with the dualshock controller instead of the regular crappy one, plus msg4 looks amazing. if I had a do-over, I would get the msg bundle over the 40gb spiderman 3 one that I got

you take the old one out and put the new one in.

SATA connection, standard notebook 2.5in drive, keep it at 5400 RPM. Really man, you disconnect 2 cables and the HDD is located in a very accessible location.
