Want GT5 when it comes out...
If I buy a PS3 off eBay, would it be likely to have any issues, like the xboxes do?
Or are they mainly okay nowadays? I also need to know which one to get?
Do they all have a HDMI port? All have internal storage?
I had one when they came out, but sold it iirc.

Buy a new one with warranty imo. Just as likely to break as their more superior competitor.

But seriously they all have HDMI and hard drives ranging from 40-250gb.

The original 60gb (like mine) were prone to failing with overheating issues more than others. Mine has been fine, but I've probably not used it as intensely as other people.
Other than that nothing major to worry about AFAIK.

Yeah but you can't go online can you, which is just boring.

Either way, Doug's point is still valid. Bit shyte paying all that cash not to be able to use it online....

320gb i believe now.
i bought f1 and you have to install an update to play it, i think the updates on newer games stop this jailbreak exploit. not too sure though i dont even understand how to do it
