I wouldn't recommend you getting a 360 GB... especially when you can upgrade very easily to a HDD by yourself.. a 500 GB HDD from amazon wouldn't cost more than $60!!. Ps3 HHDs formatted to FAT 32 format.... if you get a new HDD it would be in another format but when you put your new HDD in the Ps3 it will automatically detect the HDD and ask you if you would like to format to FAT 32... no big deal.. so it even does that for you ( you wouldn't need to format manually). i'm looking to buy one next week and i'm getting a 160 GB slim.. i haven't checked yet but im hoping i could get one for $200 or less. i would personally prefer saving some bucks than getting a 360 GB PS3!! really, i don't see the point of getting a 360 GB PS3 at this point of the year... i mean who knows, maybe Sony would release a PS3 around 2014.
