You were getting ripped off, better deals out there.

 

[*JimmyJ*]

Yeah they saw me coming innit?! I've seen that £499 deal on play.com as well, ALOT of money though. £350 from where?!

Get one off eBay mate, got mine for a nice price on there. Just make sure it's UK spec.

Still enjoying mine. Need to get a new game soon though.

Isn't UK spec rubbish though?! and how much did you get yours for if you dont mind me asking? And what did you get with it. 1 or 2 pads etc etc.....

 

[The Hoff]

UK spec is fine, getting an import will result in loss of warranty (something Sony seem very anal on, seeing as they completely fked over Lik-Sang for it).

There was a sh1t-storm that blew up on news that Sony has removed the hardware side of the PS2 innards in favour of software emulation, however the PS3 is MORE than powerful enough to emulate ANY PS2 game, and in actual fact, software emulation is more advantageous given it can be tinkered with via firmware upgrades, and improved/further developed.

I paid £360. brand new, 2 games, 1 BD Movie. Love it

You should consider buying this one on AVF

hmmmm to risky

 

[The Hoff]

Nah AVF users are normally pretty sound mate, sure it's a genuine sale. Looks a decent price too.

 

[sneeks]

He has a good reputation on AVF and most trades on there with known members are perfectly safe.

 

[cava83]

I would.

Good feedback.

Mine arrived today... 359.99 inc Resistance Fall of Man.... Roll on 5pm when i can log off (working from home today especially for this) and get it plugged up..yahoooo!

 

[*JimmyJ*]

so would u guys say yes or no to a HK 60GB PS3 £299?! HK or UK?!

 

[The Hoff]

No from me.

 

[sneeks]

If you can get a UK model for £350 then I'd buy that but if you are not concerned about warranty then no harm in buying the HK version.
