I have been trying to figure out what to buy - a used 60 gb, or a 40 gb, or wait for the 80 gb w/MGS. I think I understand the features and drawbacks of each system - thanks in no small part to reading posts on this site...
I do care about BC, because we bought a used PS2 in the fall and have been using it as the family fun machine - karaoke games, rockband, buzz, etc.
I stopped by my local Gamestop and asked about a used 60 - the girl said that the don't get them anymore really at their location - but she said the following, which I was hoping some of you could chime in on:
1) the ones w/bc run slower as the bc bogs down the system a little - so she recommended the 40 as it runs "smoother"
2) along the same lines, the BC makes the 60 run hotter which is why they had more overheating problems than the 40's
3) the 40 has bc potential built in but Sony has not activated it - she said there's a rumor that it will happen in the future
Most of these were completely new to me - I've scoured the internet over the last month or so, and think I would have heard about most of these if they're true -
Thanks in advance,
Keith
