I grabbed the B/C 60Gb while it was still around, the price difference was
offset by the fact that I would be able to play my old PS2 games; that and
my PS2 was failing anyway.
Shame though that some games just refuse to play properly compared to the
Japan/USA full B/C models, but most work fine.
If I hadn't already been down the PS route I may well have picked up an
Xbox. Though looking back at the RROD that the early models were beset by
I'm kind of glad I didn't; that and the whole paid membership thing. I
mean, seriously, what with multiplayer taking up such a huge swath of a
lot of games charging for the privilege of using it. If you buy a game a
month that's a £3 surcharge on top to play it online.
