The NEW PS3

[RP33]

Yep, well chuffed about this after starting my thread the other week. Might as well get one, sounds pretty cool.

They cut the price $100, to $299.

I quoted the wrong person but am too lazy to go back.

I will likewise get one, FNR4 being the first game of choice. I'm also curious to know what games others are into because there are only a few I know about.

Was just talking to my cousin.. he said besides FNR4 and Metal Gear 4.. Uncharted was great, and Uncharted 2 is coming out soon.. Infamous is some super hero game that i'm going to get from him and Killzone 2.

That along with the new Madden, will be enough fun to hold me over until God of War 3 in March of next year.

How compatible is it with older PS 1/2 games? I want to get my hands on a 60gig one, but they're so goddamn expensive. I might look into picking this one up.

The ONLY difference, besides what i've stated, from the older ps3 and the newer ps3, is that it's not backwards compatible..

Not that big of a deal though, because they dropped the price of the 80gb to $299 also.. so if you want one backwards compatible then get the older one which has also been price-cut..

to be honest, if i'm going to buy a ps3, i wanna play ps3 games.. i already have a ps2 that can play ps2 and ps1 games that i don't want.

I thought the 80 gig model wasn't as backwards compatible as the 60 gig because it doesn't have the emotion engine chip? That's what I've read anyways.
