So we get trophies, in game XMB, and ingame music for some games.

So where does a guy find a list of the possible trophies he can achieve (see what I did there?) in the two supported games: Warhawk and Super Stardust HD?

Also, the firmware has been causing some PS3s to go crazy

The update went off without a hitch for me. In-game XMB is a huge plus, but don't really care about trophies like I don't really care about achievements.

Hey, Canadians, I updated my bud's PS3 and it only went up to v2.36. Shouldn't it be 2.4?

And my bud's got a 60GB model. Good for him as the older models tend to be the ones that are 360-like when you ask them to do what the new models do (see the GTA4 incident)

Did MGS3 always have slowdown when there are more than five people on screen or is this the downside of 80GB BC?

Sorry, a little off topic but it's fucking hard to go back and play any MGS game after MGS4.

If I remember correctly, there wasn't too much slowdown, only in very busy areas

That's why I'm still leaning towards getting a 60GB used when they drop the price

Fucking used 60GB models sell for almost as much as new 80GB ones.

maybe if you'd go back in time and listen to me all of this could have been averted.

They didn't bundle MGS4 with a 60GB.

Yeah I have the backwards compatiable 60GB, kinda glad I didn't nab this.

I'm waiting 'til they're around $250. Stores ain't sellin' them for a premium and they are around still
