According to GI, some of the more major US retailers have dropped the 20GB PS3 model from their sales offerings. On top of the websites of Best Buy, GameStop or Electronics Boutique, the official SonyStyle website is not even selling the lesser model any more. This is quite a shame as the best value in PS3 land was the 20GB model, with a replaced 120gb HDD for under 80 dollars. link | |

| I'll be picking a PS3 up in exactly 3 months. Early prep for Ratchet and Snake. I liked the way the 20GB model looked, none of that chrome crizzap. | |

| I don't like too much chrome, that's for sure... but the 60GB version's amount of chrome seems good to me. | |

Join Date: Sep 2006 Location: Hill Valley, 2015 Age: 25 | I'm glad I picked up a 20 gigger when I did. I hate the chrome look and need no WiFi capability. Two 20-something girls were buying a PS3 at Target at the same time I was, but they bought the 60gig and wanted to know the difference. Like a gentlemen, I politely told them the difference then gave them my cell phone number in case they had any burning questions in the middle of the night...
-Brad They never called.  | |

-Brad They never called. | "Should we call the dork that seemed to know too much about video games, Becca?"
"No way! He, like, smells like my grandpa or something."
"Lets go get mochas!"
Or something like that.
I'm glad I got the 20 gigger, too. | |

OMG, I'm cracking up over here. Classic. Someone just walked past my office and looked at me funny. 
Good one Brew.
Sorry to hear about that Biffco!  They could be watching movies on the PG right now - their loss!! | |
