Re: PS3 SKU chart revisited

I can't believe there is no BC option anymore. That's lame on their part. Get a 60 gig if you can, it's the best model.

Die Zeit ist jetzt. Der Platz ist hier.

Where's the cheap one?
I want one that doesn't break the bank so I can get it and play a few of their dumb games.

Here's a thought!
how bout a SKU with no Blu-Ray and no hard drive for 200 bucks
If that was in stores I would buy one today, after work!

Since when is chrome trim a fucking feature?
This aint pimp my ride!

Peace

Re: PS3 SKU chart revisited

I just wished they had not removed the Flash card reader. It was a nice feature that the 360 did not have. I mean come on it is not as if they are passing the cost of not including it over to us. First they removed the emotion chip from future SKUs now this. I am glad I got the PS3 60Gig version when I did.

I have been through 2 360s and they both red eyed on me they had plenty of ventilation. On my 3rd right now and so far so good.

Yeah, versus the 360 SKUS:

-360 Core

-360 Pro

-360 Premium

-360 Elite

-360 Ultimate

-360 "Halo Edition"

-360 "Simpsons Edition"

-360 Arcade

Now you tell me, which one is more confusing, Nutman? Some had HDMI, some didn't. Some had a HDD, some didn't. Now THAT'S confusing.

I know there was one of those versions of 360s that was supposed to be reliable. Take a chance a pick.
