My fat PS3 is finally starting to go, so I'm looking for a replacement. I know that the slim models are long lasting, and not being PS2 backwards compatible isn't an issue for me. What I'm wondering is, which slim model should I order? From what I've seen, the first slim is the most praised while the super slim is kind of hated. Are there good reasons for why I should get the first slim over the newer one? Do people hate the super slim just because of its appearance, or does it also have performance issues?
