So should I just get the 80gig? Is Motorstorm any good?
Far as I know the 80 BC is hit or miss, Sony said that they'd try to address that in a firmware update later. The issue is they're going to be using software emulation, they took the actual ps2 chip out, so they have to write an emulator. I realize Sony has an inside track on this but people have been working on ps2 emulators for years with limited success, so I wouldn't hold your breath. Especially since, when it comes to a software emulator, a lot of games need special fixes and there is no way they'll get around to doing one for every game. I'm sure there is a compatible/not compatible list around. Should google it and see if the games you have are compatible, then decide.

The 60gb still have the actual ps2 chip inside and hence are BC, except apparently for Vinen's FFXI collection.
