The PS3 is a great purchase. And the 60 gig is a good machine. But, I think your reasoning is a bit off. As a selective gamer, you could look at the backward compatibility list and see if the 20 or 30 games you may buy for the PS2 has problems. I have an 80 gig and have played 17 PS2 games and have had 0 issues. I am selective and I don't know if I'm going to purchase any more. You'll also notice that the list of issues is shrinking with each update. There may be a time when the 60 gig and the 80 gig are indestinguishable in backward compatability. I also think the value of the 60 gig will never explode. You can buy a PS2 used for $50. You can buy a 40 gig used for $250. So $300 plus the value of 20 gigs of hard drive space is what I figure your new PS3 is worth.
