PS3 price drop after 80 gig model?

The only problem i can see is that your DVd/BD player will be region 1 only, some BD disks are multiregion there's a few sites telling you which ones. Games are not region encoded so any game from any region should play, but there are a few cases (bout 3 or 4!) were games multiplayer part is region locked. The other issue is that it will be highly doubtful Sony UK would honor the warranty if the US version went wrong.

Need to remember you can't play UK PS2 games on a US PS3.

It is down to the NTSC/PAL thing. Is Australia PAL? if so then you wont get the backwards compatibility anyway.
 
?

buy cheap 2nd hand ps2

buy cheap 2.5 HDD 160 gig (to replace the 40 gig)

problem solved?

what if people dont want a 2nd console hooked up

also the ps3 has ps2 upscaling

a normal ps2 on a hdtv will look terrible

PS2 games upscaled on a PS3 still look terrible - it's really not that much of a plus point.
