Gamedreamz.com: PS3 HD required to play games??
News direct from the horses mouth, Kurturagi's mouth, is that the PS3 will require a 60 Gb Hard Drive to play games. Thing is, Sony hasn't decided whether to ship the system with one or not!
The hardware was developed with the hard disk in mind," Kutaragi said at the event. "We view the hard drive to be mandatory for the PS3. Rather than have developers create games for the PS3 with or without the HDD, we will be asking them to develop games as though all PS3s have the HDD installed. He continued saying that Sony hopes to avoid a situation where some units have the hard drive and others don't but then he said Sony "might end up installing it in all PS3s, though that depends on the market." Am I the only one who thinks having to buy a peripheral to play games on a Game platform seems counter intuitive?? ------------ so i mean, itd jus be retarded for them NOT to include a hard drive.

They won't. And it will cost another 200 dollars.

You know what? This is how they nickel and dime people. It's how they manage to dick people over. They've done this before, they'll do it again. This is probably the largest example in the video game industry, but you know what? The retards will fall for it, and then buy the HD. It will sell like hotcakes. It could come without an AC adapter, a controller, or cords to hook it up, and no drive for games, and people would line up around the block. 10-20 people on this site alone would be posting how hotttttttt it is, and how much more ass it would kick once they got the power supply. And nother 10-20 would piss and moan about how they went into a store, knowingly bought something that was incomplete, and are mad because they screwed themselves. Of course, they would blame Sony, but still. |

well, guess thats that, according to a link on that ign link provided, the HDD is required. This in turn means if a HDD is not included, that will make NO sense. I mean, were they thinking 'hey, lets bring out a video game console, but make them have to buy something seperate in order to actually play games on the console!'. KK had a great point earlier.

It's HDTV compatible.
That has nothing to do with the hard drive. You probably will be fucked sans online, and you will be fucked by the price (But I severely doubt 700 bucks). |

Well the PS3 online stuff is gonna be like XBox Live stuff, which is pretty decent, and it will be free.

Why does Lenox Lewis hate the PS2?
Because he's an ex-boxer |

Whats not to get?
If the HD is going to be external, then it will probably feature easy plug and play software. If it's an internal HD then you wont have anything to worry about. Just think of the HD as a huge version of the 8MB memeory cards. |

and really, thats probably all it will be used for if the PS3 goes the same route the PS2 did. Wait, the PS2 HDD couldnt even load saved game files from the HDD, NEVERMIND!

Ok, I have no idea what the fuck an HDD is. I've understood this much:
-An HDD is this real big memory card that can save lots of shit. -It may be inside the ps3 in which case no worries. -It might not, and be like a memory card that you gotta plug in to use, trouble is it will cost... lots? -You need the HDD thing to play the games, even if you aren't gonna use it to save How much of that is right? And also, will havng an HDD inside the ps3 up the price? |

You know how computers have Hard Drives? That's what it is, a Hard Disk Drive.

Pretty much. I just don't see Sony releasing a gaming console without something necessary to play games. That doesn't make sense at all. Even if they had to up the price tag, they would put the hard drive in the bundle.
