i got a 500GB hdd in june and now 120GB remains. playstation+ foc games and game demo/videos take up lots of space.

and about 10% of your hdd space is lost to ps3 formatting (not sure if correct term).

more and more new games are being released digitally on launch so recommend you to get 750GB or 1TB 

the whole point is that i cant even copy anything from my harddisk to the usb now since all my ps3 wants to do is to format it. and i dont have a ps+ account.. anyways i'm done with sony

I was at a game shop, looking for a ps3 unit.
Got the guy to open the box and noticed it was unsealed. So I asked why is it so? The reply was "We always test each unit before accepting from our supplier".
Ok, I can accept this reply.

Then was checking out the controller. It has pretty much all that is mentioned below:
How to spot a fake PS3 controller

Especially the sticker part, which contains very little information, compared to the original.

So, just walk out, without anything..

upgrade to OFW ( official firmware ) straight away ..
