I have a PS3 Slim European version, 250GB.
My library of games in disc:
FIFA10, FIFA11, Madden10, NHL10, NBA2k10, LittleBigPlanet, MAG, COD: Modern Warfare, Heavy Rain, Sports Champions, Red Dead Redemption, Grand Theft Auto IV (+ both expansions), Fallout 3: GOTY, Oblivion, Metal Gear Solid IV, Dragon Age: Origins, 3D Dot Game Heroes, SEGA Mega Drive Collection, Trivial Pursuit, Uncharted, Uncharted 2.
My library of games downloaded from the PSN:
Sam & Max and The Devil's Toybox, ZEN Pinball, Street Fighter II HD, Hustle Kings, Tumble, Flight Control HD, topatoi, Super Stardust HD, Reto Mental (Mental Challenge, or sth), PixelJunk Shooter, Monsters and Eden, Peggle, Joe Danger, Flower, Echocrome and Braid.
Most of the games have worked flawlessly, but I'm going to mention those I recall having minor/serious problems with:
Trivial Pursuit - Works great, but for some reason the system hangs when trying to access the shop from the game. Always. And no, it hasn't been patched. I can buy things through the PS Store though, but from the game it's impossible.
MAG - Possibly some glitches, but I dont care about those. A few times (not many, but some), I was joining a game and the system would hang at the loading screen. Nothing else.
Oblivion - I have only made a few hours in and sometimes I experience frame rate drops when wandering the world. Maybe I face more problems later, à la Fallout3 (see below)
Fallout3 - I would say it's one of the best games I've ever played. I can't give it a 10, though, due to bugs, and y'all know what I'm talking about. At first everything was perfect, I was really hooked to the game and didnt get crashes at all... Well, maybe one or two, but I didnt care, I didnt read the internet about bugs and so on, and so there were "funny" to me. Also, after 5 hours in a row, I thought "well, let your blacky thingy rest a little". I finished the story and so on, and decided to do extra quests, trophy-hunting, DLC completing... Freezes began to appear more commonly the more hours into the game, and it was beginning to be frustrating. I specially recall having BIG trouble trying to go into the Mothership, the only way I could do it was saving in front of the OVNI, rebooting the system and going from them. Otherwise, the system would hang after the abduction. My save file is now 16Mb, +80 hours in, I've completed almost every quest (I think I have 3 or 4 left, minor ones... like the Aqua Pura one), got every trophy, but you know how the world is: huge. And so I have many places to discover, still, even if there's nothing in them. I would like to wander the Capital Wasteland for many more hours but the game now is COMPLETELY UNPLAYABLE. I'm not selling it because I know I can make a fresh start and play differently and get maybe another nice 40 hour game seeing everything I hadnt seen before, but my 80 hour play is just trash now. 10 minutes in, and freeze, 2 more minutes, and complete freeze that leads to reboot.
Those are the biggest things I recall from what you see I have a quite big library of games. Maybe I've had other crashes but... you know, so rare I dont even remember. TheHut.com sent my copy of New Vegas yesterday, hopefully I'll get it by Friday, and I'll let you know how it plays in my Slim. I just wish it's similar or better than Fallout3, but no worse...
