Of course not, but that is my main purpose for buying it at the moment. Otherwise, I would have waited for another year. When I have more money, COD4, GTA4, Half Life 2 will be mine. BTW, who is this Hilary Goldstein you speak of???
Just a douche working at IGN who likes to say outrageous things to rise through the ranks.

i think its ok but wouldnt it be better to get a brand new one with more space for 100 bucks more, im not rich but when the 60gb dropped to 450 i jumped on it.
I think $300 sounds good as the 20GBs in my neighborhood go for about $500 and the used 40GBs go for $350. Then again, if I'm buying a game system that is that expensive, as I still have a relatively new slimPS2, I'd rather have a new 40GB for a little more than the used route.

just PS2, all of them play PS1, why else would they let you download them off of PSN.
My friend has a 20gb and plays PS1 but not 2, i have the 60 thank god.

20gb doesnt play PS2 games suprisingly, 80 and 60 do
Are you sure about that??? Where did you get your info anyway???
my Dad bought a 20gb just to use as a Blu-Ray player when they went on clearence, i bought my 60 when they went on clearence also so we have 2 ps3's. The 20 doesnt play PS2 games, i know, i was trying to play GTA Vice City on it and it wont see it as a game.
I also checked on sonys official site, there is no option for compatibilty with 20gb on the compatible games list.
