It was bound to happen sooner or later, I just didn't expect it to happen this sooner (wait, that's not right, oh well). According to several retail outlets, including the official online Sony store, the 20GB PlayStation 3 is a thing of the past -- you know, like the innoncence of our children. From GamesIndustry:
However, SonyStyle isn't the only online retailer which has stopped selling the 20GB PS3. It's no longer available via the websites of Best Buy, GameStop or Electronics Boutique.
Speaking to GamesIndustry.biz after news emerged that US retailers were ceasing to stock the 20GB model, a spokesperson said, "We'll continue to monitor demand for the 20GB model, from a consumer and retailer perspective, which will be factored into any future European launch plans."
Why even release two versions like that? If you're going to go all out and release an uber console, than release an uber console. Don't give us your tard packs.

And I don't care about little big world. It's basically appeared to me to be a game draped around a Gary's Mod style interface. Good for them, I guess, but I never looked to Gary's Mod for gameplay.
As the hundred thousand or so webcam whores on YouTube can prove, user created content is a VERY mixed bag.
So far the ps3 has done one thing good and thats take lots of money from uninformed idiots around xmas time and put it in my pocket.
You were blinded by the shiny graphics and the PLAYSTATION badge on the front, just like a bunch of other Sony boiz. Most objective spectators have known this model was on the way out months ago.
It's just warming up the grave for the 60 gig, IMO. I imagine the PS3 60 gig as Sanford from "Sanford and Son" holding its Cell processor "heart" in it's non-vibrating palm and shouting to the heavens, "I'm comin' to ya, 20 gig!, I'm comin' to ya!"
If you get this reference, you're probably too old to be gaming, just like me.
I'm just happy that the HDMI connection eliminates the delay on my HD set that made Gitaroo-Man almost unplayable.
Ahh, console rage...
