I'm planning to buy a ps3 for a while and have some questions.
I was thinking about the 60gb model but if it really worth it? I've tried kijiji and craigslist but most of them are more expensive then a brand new 80gb with about 4 games
-Worth is all up to you. Keep in mind that all other versions of the PS3 that came after the 60GB was discontinued only offers software emulation for PS2 games. The "Graphics Synthesizer" GPU was removed from the 80GB PS3 version that was bundles with either Motostorm 1 or MGS4.
Is does the 80gb support ps2 and ps1? I've read somewhere the the MGS4 ps3 was the last one that came out that supported ps2/ps1
- The only 80GB PS3 that has backwards compatibility to PS2 games ar the ones that was bundled with Motostorm 1 or MGS4 (the games were packed in the box.)
as for ports what does the new 80gb have? cause i dont plan on buying a wireless router for it and i heard sony took a lot of the usb ports and memory sticks out
[b][b]-Current PS3 only have 2 USB ports. The PS3 has built in Wifi and and Ethernet port so you can connect wired or wireless to the net. The 40GB,80GB (no games bundled) and 160GB have no card readers.[/b][/b]

Also How can it also be a pc too? like can u go on msn on it download stuff on the internet etc
-Its a PC too because you can install Linux in the PS3.Y I have not installed Linux on my 60GB as I have no knowledge of Linux. Its safe to assume that you would have to have Linux installed in the PS3 before you can install MSN or whatever its is you want from the net.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in Advance
