160gb ps3 to come, any of you guys having regrets?

I recently bought the 80gb ps3 bundle (Motorstorm edition, with "5 free blue-ray movies" rebate), and am having regrets upon learning Japan is releasing a 160gb version (worldwide in a few months), which will come with dualshock 3 and a choice in platform color (black, silver). This is depressing me because I also know many great games will also be released in a few months, around the time of the 160gb ps3 release. I know it will cost more, and I know I can buy a hard drive for $100 to make up for the extra 80gb, but the proposed 160gb deal just seems like the right deal for me.

Also, I have already sent in the barcode on my box (preventing returning) to aquire my blue-rays.

Is there anyone out there that can bring light to any ideas on how I could get this 160gb in a few months, without just buying a whole new one (some sort of a deal with my 80gb)?

If not, is there anyone out there that can tell me something that will make me feel better about this whole thing and my 80gb?

Also, if there is anyone out there like me, list your regrets or non-regrets that you have.

80GB is more than enough space.

If you really need more space, you have the choice of buying the extra HDD. But if you don't need the space, there is no need to worry then.

I have the 60GB and I find it is great and I realize the option to buy the HDD. Besides, the 160GB won't come to NA for a while. So if you want to return your 80GB you are gonna have to wait a long time for the 160GB to come here, IF it comes here at all.

I got a 250GB harddrive for £60 so no im having no regrets

no regrets here to be hoenst. i've already formated and hooked another HD unit to it so now i got/should have 220GB total. As long as the external thing works as expected i dont care. DS3 will be buyable and updates downloadable, so thats another solveed problem, and overall that has nothing to do with Blu-Ray so thats covered too. All good in Haesuse land!!!

When you run out of 80GB then start crying. I think you're fine. Truthfully, I've yet to even dent my 80GB hard drive.

It's not like the 360 where you can only upgrade to a $180, 120GB HDD. With the PS3 you can upgrade at any time to almost any HDD size, so why would I regret getting a 40GB ps3? It don't store videos, pics, or music on it as I stream it from my pc.

I have huge regrets. I bought a packard bell 486DX in 1994 for $2,000. Now look at computer prices.

All joking aside, no regrets. I bought a 20GB for $499 on launch, and I've used it for more than a year as a bluray/dvd/gaming machine. I've also used it to play PS2 games since I never owned one. When people ask this question they never take into account the opportunity to use the lesser equipped machine for months/years before the new one came out.

I actually like the glossy black ps3 i have now (even though it attracts dust cuz of the material)

plus you can always upgrade the HDD

Why would I regret I only use my PS3 for gaming and its 60GB which is enough.

if you believe there is a 160gb PS3 coming, you're fooling yourself. I can't believe there aren't more people on this thread ranting about how this is misinformation.
