The 250 GB model is a little older and needs to be updated before it has the PS3 move update and maybe even some other updates like 3 D capability, but it can be updated. It also has a larger harddrive than the 160 GB model. The 250 GB PS3 model was replaced by the 320 GB PS3. The 120 GB PS3 model was replaced by the 160 GB model. Once updated the consoles all have the same capabilities except for the size harddrive.
The harddrive size is twice a large on the 320 GB model and it costs $50 more. The 320 GB model currently has the largest harddrive of a production model At some point both models will stop production and the 250 GB and 500 GB harddrives will be used for the PS3 models
80 GB has twice the memory. If you are thinking of looks the trim on the 80 GB is silver and the 40GB is grey. Hope that helped!
The hard drive size (and the price) is the only difference.
The size of the hard drive is the only difference. That is the reason it is $50 more.
More memory, that's all.
80GB. The only difference between the two are the hard drive capacities.
ps3 80 gb.
YES
It is a lot of space..I have many ps3 games installed and i still have 40gb left..so i think is cool
Only on the 1st generation of the PS3 which is 80GB, you can't play them on the 40GB one though
40gb, 60gb, 80gb, 120gb, 250gb, also can be upgraded to 320gb at sony centers.
Yes. All models, 40gb, 60gb, 80gb, 120gb, 250gb!
Yes - the only differences between it and the 40GB version is the extra hard-drive space, and the fact that they generally come with the Dualshock 3, with built-in rumble.
It depends on what version of the ps3 you use. the 20gb, 60gb and old 80gb versions can play ps2 games, but the 40gb, new 80gb and 160gb versions can't.
40GB, 80GB, or 160GB PS3s can not play PS2 games. NO MATTER WHAT. Do not listen to anyone that says they can play them. On the other hand, 20GB and 60GB PS3s can play them. Actually all ps3s can play ps2 games on them no matter what the gb. I have a 40gb ps3 and i play ps3 games on it all the time. But you have to go to the playstation store and download the free ps2 content to play ps2 games on a ps3.
by the model number and not all PS3 80GB have the same model
