Making the Right Decision - The PS3
Okay so I ordered an Elite from play.com this month. It arrived and didnt work.
I got the red ring of death and all that from the moment I turned it on!!!
I was gutted to say the least! So thats really made me lose my faith in Xbox's!
Anyhow. Im now looking at getting a PS3. I imagine there much better built and
plus you get a bit of Blu-ray chucked in too.
But now, do I bother getting a brand new 60gb version from Ebay (obviously it
will cost a bit more) or just sack it and get a basic UK 40gb version.
I still have my PS2 for my old PS2 games so dont really need to be playing
my PS2 games on the PS3 (which the 60bg version does). But do you reckon
its worth getting it still?
60gb or 40gb.. Hmmm.
Does the new 80bg version play old PS2 games btw? Cause that comes out soon eh?

Its only Crash Nitro Karts we play after a few beers. But tbh I heard you can
download the original Crash Team off the net for the PS3? Thats awesome if
true.
I may wait for a bit then but the 40gb does seem to be the one. Cheers!

CTR Rushy? That game was awesome. If so Robb might purchase a PS3 a little sooner rather than later.

Yea CTR. Such a wicked game. The newer one on the PS2 just wasnt the same.
I agree, prob more people on Xbox, but wait till the game start really rolling out
on PS3.
