Yep. When you get a new game you have to load it on the Hard Drive and it takes 20 minutes. Fuck that.

Not strictly bad, but it lacks a lot of exclusives, and most of the time, 360 versions of multi-platform games are superior.

That's not strictly true. I can only name two games which require a manual HDD install, and it's to prevent load times. Hell, I wish they had the option of an HDD install for mass effect, given that there's a load screen every ten steps.

What KK said. Only a few games have mandatory installs. The most notable being DMC4. The install also gets rid of pretty much all loading.

On a total side note, I also love the PS3s controller more than any other system out there. I seriously despise how the 360's controller feels.

I do wish the installs weren't mandatory where they are, but considering it's a very small number of games, it's hardly a huge system flaw. Though Sony would have been smart to not put a 1X BRD in a video game console.

I like the PS3's controller, to be honest, though I don't hate the 360s.
