    You get nothing if you wait to long but if you sell your ps2 right before The ps3 comes out you can get some money.Anyways consoles are backwards compatible now so I don't need the old one.But in 20 yrs I might would want to take that crusty bastard outta the closet and show my kids.

    Lol crusty bastard. Nice. I think when the next console comes out is when you get the least money. You either sell in advance (a while before release of Next Gen) or ages after, when the console is harder to get hold of and becomes a collectors item of sorts. Though with the vast amounts of PS2 units out there, it's doubtful they'll be worth anything for a long time. Lets face it the things are as common as dog sh!t...

    Thought you'd like that.Yeah the prospects of a ps2 becoming a collector's item soon looks dim.But the commodor and atari are considered rarer nowadays.If you had an atari in the original box brand new it may fetch a descent price.

    Yeah. The longer you hold onto things, the better the price people will pay. This guy was trying to sell a SNES copy of a rare RPG called Lufia for $50 (Ebay) and it was cartridge only, and my oh my what a crusty bastard that was. I have mine mint in the cardboard package with the book and everything, all schmick! I reckon I could get bout 100-120 bucks maybe, but I like it too much lol...

    I never understood the rare game thing.I know that if they are rare they will be harder to find therefore more sought after but if they were rare they probably sucked back then and didn't sell anything.

    Yeah. Well Vagrant Story is an awesome RPG by Square, nobody bought, then everybody realised how awesome it is, and now everyone wants it. The price rises due to excess demand and a small supply. Glad I picked my copy up on Ebay (Great condition!!) for 11 bucks including postage then hey? ;) Anyway dude, I need a couple hours sleep before the Socceroos play Brazil lol, catchya round the forums, and I like the abstract man!

    Why? What's so fun about that? Playing something on it would probably be funner than destroying it.If you do, It will be hard because of the casing.It's not like something you can just unscrew.I would look on the internet for a guide with pictures before I do anything I may regret.

    But who am I to tell you what to do with your stuff?Go for it lol.

    Do you really expect Sony to agree with the rumors? Sony refuting all that has been said is just common sense so dont get too excited.If they dont respond at all for too long then their ommision seems to make the rumors truth,if they come out and agree with the rumors well then they are making thier own death bed.This is expected that they would refute their next gen console being a shitter i mean come on man.Now in actuality the rumors may be false but its things like this that cause sony haters to stand up and Sony fans to bellow out with pride...Just because sony said it wasnt true doesnt mean its the gospel.


    SONY REFUTING THE RUMORS MEANS EXACTLY DIDLY SQAUT!!!
    Keywords in their are that SONY"S spokesmen are debunking the rumors not someone from outside the organization who is credible.

    Sony dont need to say anything its commonsense Sony PS3 is in mass preduction its to late to go back and down grade or change anything or the lauch day will be pushed back which is not going to happen.We know where these rumors come from they just tryin to use every dirt tatic in the book but its no going to derail the PS3 Silver bullet train ....BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    alright i thought it was all in good fun but my apologies.Not trying to offend anyone but all i said was joking about how he stretched out or emphasized the baby and then stated he loved Sony which isnt a bad thing but nonetheless if you see wrong in it i shall adjust.Sorry Damondash

    yes they do make the ps3 but that doesnt mean they would never lie.
    MS makes the xbox 360 does that mean that everything they say is the truth?


    SPEAKING of ps3 downgrades heres just the opposite an upgrade in the hdmi quality...

    Have I ever cared about the rumors? No.
    It's all you that care so much.

    See when the rumor is against sony then you all jump on but when I dismiss those rumors it's a bad thing.Well then stop posting bad rumors about ps3 and I'll stop ending them :)
