    The PS3 logos over the years
    The PS3 logos over the years
    Simple question, what model did you happen to purchase? I bought the 60 GB one, mainly because I heard they were taking out the PS2 support for later models, and the price was 100 dollars lower, so win-win.    
     

    Updated Poll:

    Added the 120 GB Slim, but only added the option of "Slim" since I'm sure there will be bigger HD models released later and I don't think they'll change (feature-wise) much in later models.     

    This is the previous poll's top pick

    Top pick - 60 GB (37.9% of 359 votes cast)

    I waited outside in the rain for a 60gb but ended up with a 20gb. No issues with it so far.

    Interesting reasoning, but it contradicts you still classifying the others only by hard drive size. The PlayStation 3 article has a good breakdown (excluding the E3 model of course). Some could be consolidated and others could be separated if hard drive capacity was ignored.

    @Kamasama: True, but I didn't intend to leave out the hard drive space, because that's mainly how the different models were differentiated. I could later put the various Slim hd sizes as they come up. But I think to just very basically measure who's buying the slim (of which there's only one hd size) this poll will do.

    Right now i have a Imported white PS3(40GB) and a PS3 Slim. The white PS3 used to have a 500 GB hard drive in it, but when i got the Slim a couple of days ago, i transferred the 500 GB to that and the 120 GB one to the white PS3.

    @artofwar420: I agree that you shouldn't leave out the hard drive space, but I was saying that currently they're only differentiated by that. As I said in your previous thread, the two 80 GB models are quite different from each other, while the later 80 GB model is basically identical to the 40 GB and 160 GB models. My ideal poll may require a bit more thought on the part of the user, I suppose, but would give a better indication of the capability of their hardware.

    Started to not read game discs and Blurays about a month ago.  I smoke a lot in my apartment so that could be the cause.  I opened it up myself and cleaned off the lens with some lens cleaning solution.  Started working again.  Love my PS3.  I think I do everything but play games on it.

    Since my hot ass 60GB was stolen from my house at the time, I waited a bit and got the MGS bundle. It also happened to be the last backwards compatible model, making it totally worth the wait. Admittedly, I have played all of two PS2 games since I got it, but it's nice to have BC so if I feel like playing something from my collection, I can.
