    lots of dust lol.
    to add some info for you;
    40gb are discontinued, they basically have a PS2 shoved inside of them.
    they are 99.9% backwards compatible, the only game it doesn't play is mortal kombat something...


    they go for $330-350 at gamestops/EB's if you can find them, before tax.
    great deal.

    good luck with your sale, i would've picked this up if i didnt just grab an 80GB gen2

    I'm 100% positive the 40gb ps3 isnt backwards compatible, it wont play any ps2 games. Only the 60gb and the older 80gb will play ps2 games.

    The 40gb is and never was backwards compatible


    but judging by your pictures it has 4 USB connections, so are you sure it isnt a 20gb or 60gb model?

    120gb Slim is 299.00 brand new.

    I see the USB ports now...which means its either 80 or 20gb

    gross. i posted that back in june before price drops.

    but yes i was wrong the 40gb wasn't BC because they were later modeled.
    i had it in my mindset that pre-80gb was bc.
