I've had the 40gig fatty for over a year now, no issues with it.

Going to break the sony string

XBox ftw.

even if it breaks, bring it to someone like me and ill re-ball and heatgun it - can be done over and over, barely costs anything - etc

I've fixed an xbox 360 before. I don't care for the 360 exclusives so much, I like the PS3 ones a lot more.

Ended up getting the most prone to YLOD. 60gb backwards compatible. For $150, 4 games(good ones too), and a blutooth, couldn't resist... lol

superman22x on psn too.

I haven't been a console gamer for many years now so I can't really answer your question. The one thing I will say though is the PS3 not being backwards compatible with the PS2 and PS1 was the killing blow for me. Would totally get a PS3 if it were backwards compatible. I don't understand why the first generation PS3s were and now they are not. GG Sony!

The PS3 is backwards compatible with PS1 games, just not PS2 games. All my PS1 games seem to work with my PS3 slim.
