Yes, you can.

Re: PS3 40GB = no roster share?

Yes, just use a thumb/flash drive. No problems.

Re: PS3 40GB = no roster share?

Ah, thanks guys. You would think people at GS actually knew about games. ^_^

Re: PS3 40GB = no roster share?

whether they do or dont

the 6.50/hr (what they make in PA till the minimum wage goes up) doesn't provide them enough incentive to actually care.

Thinking about getting a PS3, but.......

...what is the appeal of getting the 60gb or 80gb models over the smaller models?? Other than the obvious larger hard drive capacity and the ability to play PS2 games on them. Are there any other advantages to getting the 60 or 80???

I only have a few PS2 games, so I'm not to concerned about the BC issue. I'm mainly getting one for the Blu-ray player and MLB The Show 08. Maybe a few other PS exclusive games in the future. I'll keep my 360 for my main gaming system of course.

Also, how does Blu-ray movies playing on the PS3 compare in picture quality to other "non gaming" blu ray players???

Any info or feedback will be greatly appreciated.


Thanks guys

Re: Thinking about getting a PS3, but.......

For me I like the 60gb better just because I know my history of buying older games when they get dirt cheap. So with the 60gb I have no worries that anything will not play. Other than that ?????

Re: Thinking about getting a PS3, but.......

I have a 80g it still plays over 500+ old games. So far at least 171 of mine work. So either way its a good decision

And good luck getting a 60g.

If you have a PS2 that works well, save yourself $100, that's what I did this weekend. Now I have my PS2, 360, PS3 all hooked up by components, VGA, and HDMI respectively.

Why are the 60g's so hard to come by??? Is there something about them that makes them better than the 80g???

Also, have any comments about the Blu-ray picture quality on the PS3???

Thanks for the quick response guys.

60GB's are hard to find because Sony discontinued them. You'd have to be almost lucky to find one brand new.

As for Blu-ray picture quality... I can't speak on that because I do not watch movies.

Excellent. One of the best blu-ray players in the market in my opinion and the fact you can get firmware updates makes it that much better.

To add to that Sams Club has them as well.

Re: Thinking about getting a PS3, but.......

If you guys can settle with a 60 GB, consider yourself lucky.

We currently have an 80 GB since the first two 60 GB broke on us (first one, something popped in the PS3 while my brother was playing NCAA, the second one no disk would play despite having the "reading disc" indicator at the top right hand corner). We made the switch since we still have a PS2.

Re: Thinking about getting a PS3, but.......

I don't want to play PS2 games on my PS3, so it was easy for me to choose the 40gb PS3.
