Sony PS3 Confused?

I'm on the curry's website at the moment and they are selling a PS3 slim 160GB for £249.99 and a PS3 slim 250GB for £199.97. Why the big difference in price especially when the one with the bigger hard drive is cheaper??

The 250GB is end-of-line (as is the 120GB) and has been replaced by a 320GB version. Hence, it's priced down to clear it out. Simple as that.

So it is just as good as the 160GB one then? but with bigger hard drive?

Another question - I still have an old fat TV in my room is there any point getting the PS3 since the graphics will be crap

1) Yes, it's pretty much the same machine with a smaller hard drive
2) No, the graphics and games will be good. You just won't get it in HD

Forgive me jumping in here. If the PS3 is used to watch DVDs, and play CoD (MW etc) and FIFA11, what difference does the extra hard drive capacity mean in practical terms? The ongoing quarrels between the PS3 users here, both in their 20s, mean my son is thinking of getting a separate one for his room, price (or phone deal) permitting.

You can store your music & videos on it to use as a media server..or alternatively, have plenty of space for downloaded games and demos.
