Thinking of getting a PS3

[hoodyallen]

If I got the 40 GB refurbished would I be missing anything? I'm not looking to spend too much money and 229.99 looks like a solid deal.

[Point Blank]

Not really..

I would spend the extra $70 myself, but I don't know your financial situation.

The 120GB hard drive and the warranty on a new system is worth the extra cash in my opinion.

[Jagsfan61]

i'd get the new one

Is 40 GB enough to download demos?

40 GB more than enough to download demos. Very few demos even reach 2GB, hell most don't reach 1 GB.

Yeah, it was kind of a dumb question seeing as how thats how it works on 360, I guess I was thinking it could be different on PS3. The 120 GB deal looks pretty good to me, I'm pretty strapped for cash, I might opt to wait a bit longer till I can afford the 120 GB console.

[Jagsfan61]

yea, you might as well wait just a little if you can afford to get the 120. But when you do get it, you gotta add me

[Minne]

yeah im waiting to get the 120 to

[Jagsfan61]

minne, you need to get one ASAP

[hoodyallen]

I've had a 360 since launch and I really like it but I really want to play some ps3 exclusive games. I want to get the uncharted games, mlb the show, gow3 and a few others.

[MrBill]

I'd go for the 120G slim unless you were getting at least $100 off for the refurbished, which you are not.

[stevsta]

the 40 is the worst deal nowadays the original phat ps3s and 120 slim are way better deals

Old ones b/c ps2 backwards is ftw

Those things are getting upwards of $300 on craigslist. Since I have a PS2 for any old games I might want to play, I sold my old one with 2 original controllers for $325 and went to Best Buy and got a new one with 2 dual shock controllers for about $50 out of pocket :D
