Game stop REALLY needs to test there systems!
PostedMay 10, 2012
I have a 40gig and I wanted to play PS2 games without having to fined one, so I went a head and ordered 60gig from here. Hooked it up, started just fine. Then I tried to put a game in and it wouldn't let me. It wouldn't let me put any kind of disc in there. I hope the replacement will be better!

Bad PS3
PostedApril 29, 2012
This is not my first PS3 60 GB. I got my first one the first week the PS3 came out. It only died cause a storm zapped my phone line and fried my motherboard. So I just ordered a 60GB Refurbished one last week, just got it Friday. Was not able to play it for an hour before it shut off by itself. It would not play PS2 games like it was said to do. Now it won't even stay on more than a min. Hopefully the replacement will work better.

Great system IF they fixed them properly
PostedApril 25, 2012
I recently lost my 40gb PS3 at the beginning of February, so I decided to take advantage of the opportunity (or so I thought) and get the system I really wanted - the 60gb PS3. No longer having a PS2 this was a big selling point for me, so this was pretty much a no-brainer for me since it would be coming from the "#1 gaming store in America". So I bought a reburbished one after doing some research and hearing mostly positive reviews of GameStop's version.
Almost 2 1/2 months later, I have gone through 3 refurbished 60gb PS3s. The first lasted 3 weeks, the second was 3 days, and the last one died within 3 hours of use (I am dead serious with the numbers too). Bad luck? Coincidence? I told myself if I got another it might last 3 minutes, so now I have bit the bullet and decided I will get the new system since I cannot enjoy the one I really wanted for much time. It really is a great system but I am tired of having to worry if they fixed the system properly every time I get a replacement. It is really a shame.

Starhawk comes out May 8th!
When I was eleven, my dad bought me a 60 gb PS3. I was so happy. Over the years I built up my collection of games from Call of Duty to LittleBigPlanet to Warhawk to Resident Evil. It was dropped multiple times and survived. the circuits were burned and it survived. The data survived multiple corruption chances. 5 years later, a stupid choice by my brother gave me the yellow light of death. Countless repair attempts by me and shops across the cities failed. Now i'm stuck with the 160 gb. It can play the old ps games, but it play PS2 games. The worst part is 5 years of data is gone.
this PS3 is the best.this kind of PS3 is the goodest out of all.its better than the Xbox 360.unlike the xbox 360.PS3s internet is free.the most of all i like abut the PS3 is the Play Station Store.you can download themes,demos and download full games,even though you have to pay for it.and this kind of PS3 can play PS2 games.i love this PS3.
