    Looking to get the GT5 bundle when it finally comes out. Hopefully the 160gb will cost a little less.

    The white one looked the best out of them all.
    Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
    CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
    TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

    personallly I don't see sony bringing back backwards compatability. Also with these new bigger HDDs, my guess is that sony will probabily introduce PS2 games via PSN, I've also heard rumours of dreamcast games coming too.

    Plus there are talks of old PS2 classics becoming remastered like God of War 1 and 2.

    I honestly don't get the backwards compatability. Want to play your PS2 games? Keep your PS2.

    I bought a PS1 game via PSN to remind me of my happy days of PS1, but it looks so dated now, it almost tarnished the memory! I'd much sooner see remade versions.

    My PS3 has had 320GB since about 5 minutes after I owned it, best thing you can do to them. Obviously driven by Sony's rental market, but they're going to have to work out the 2gb file limit problem soon, 720p just doesn't tempt me.

    I wouldn't mind seeing a white ps3 i think it be nice to see one in the UK and the whole idea of releasing ps3 with 320gb and 160gb hard drive is a bit silly since you can probably buy a used one and then spend £30-50 to get a 500GB 2.5" hard drive,save loads of money.
