Sony PlayStation 3 Console (60GB Premium Version)

Product Information

PS3 60GB System - Original Sony PlayStation 3 console, 1 original Sony wireless controller with USB charging cable, HDMI TV hookup, and power cord. Even then, most original models are only backward compatible via software emulation, meaning that not every PS2 game is supported. This is perhaps the first time that a relatively popular console SKU has been completely eliminated from production during the ongoing life-cycle of the product without an equivalent replacement. However, the original 60GB version features internal hardware that allows it to run nearly every PS2 game without a hiccup, so if you’re really interested in backward compatibility, that is the version to hunt down. Those that do stick with their launch hardware, however, are adamant about their love for the system.

The PS3 Slim no longer has the "main power" switch like the previous PS3 models, similar to redesigned slimline PlayStation 2. The younger kids are looking at the new models like "Whoa, its lighter and slimmer" not realizing Sony just stripped away and Dumber downed the capabilities of the system by removing the Chip set that was dedicated to reading the PS1/PS2 games and the memory card reader slots. The 320 GB model is to be available in North America only as part of a bundle with PlayStation Move, a PlayStation Eye and a copy of Sports Champions, [41] and in Europe with PlayStation Move, a PlayStation Eye and a demo disc. But with the latest generation of consoles from both Sony and Microsoft, different versions of each console differ significantly, to the point where key features are lost and gained across SKUs.Sony PlayStation 3 Console (320GB Model) with Resistance 3 and Battle: Los Angeles Blu-ray Movie Bundle Edition". Presentamos el paquete de PS3 con Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance" [Introducing the PS3 package with Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance]. Underneath the bar code you will see the 11-digit serial number followed by the model number which begins with "CECH".

l Black and Gold model is only available as part of the Japanese Yakuza 5 bundle and features a gold emblem design on its case.The Super Slim also features a sliding disc cover rather than the slot-loading drive found on previous PlayStation 3 consoles. I seem to have stumbled upon a rare sight in my local area online from someone who claims to have 3 sealed 60gb units never opened or used. It's a confusing situation, to be sure, but the takeaway here is that the discontinued 60 GB unit is effectively the top-of-the-line PS3 SKU, ahead of the two units that are still in production.
