    1. Is it worth getting a slim PS3 or stick to the original?
    Slim, unless you buy a used backwards compatible ps3.

    2. Will 60GB be enough for me, going by what i said above?
    I have no problems with my slim. I do delete films once I watch them. P90x is still on there (BRING IT)

    3. Is warranty worth it. For example would it be feasible to try and find a deal on ebay?
    I've heard stories of them breaking but it's so random. Up to you.

    It's a fucking stupid question. Why would you ever want to move something spinning at several thousand RPMs during use? Is it really that hard to turn the system off and then move it? (Or even eject the disc, deal with the "omfg disc nao plz," and then move it?)

    Even then it's stupid since HDDs are ridiculously sensitive anyway, although at least the platters aren't freely floating like the DVD would be.

    I have the phat PS3 and i must say mine is extremely quiet (except for summer time because my room can reach high temperatures) I never liked the slim because it looks like cheap plastic. btw if u buy a new one try to get extended warranty it doesnt hurt, my 1st PS3(60gb) died because of a blackout and because i had my extended warranty got all my money back.

    besides how can you say no to something like this

    WATCH OUT, IF THE PS3 IS RUNNING AND FALLS OFF THE BOX THE DISC MIGHT BE SCRATCHED!

    First quick question is there's been a mentioned of Backwards Compatibility. Is this allowing the play ps2 and ps games on the ps3?

    Going by the responses there seems to be a sway towards the slim. Hopefully ill be able to find a good deal with the slim.

    All PS3s can play PSX games. It's only the older fats (MGS4-bundle black PS3 being the last that could) that can play PS2 as well.
