- wont be playing any ps2 games on it
- wont be playing tunes through it
- wont be viewing photos
only playing ps3 games on and off line, so should I really care about HD size?- nodesignerror
- You will in the future when we have mandatory installs. Plus, demos can weigh in at 2GB these days. GTA IV has a 3.5GB install.5timuli
- 3.5GB install at the start.5timuli
- I got a 100GB HD off ebay for 30 quid, 3 screws later I had a 100GB PS3designerror

is it back compatible?

Ah ha, was thinking this exact same thing earlier. I had liked the idea of the ps3 being back compatible but now I think about it, Im probably not gonna sell my ps2 so I won't need for a ps3 to be back compatible.
The 60gig is an older model thats already discontinued so a newer 40gig would make more sense, yes or no?
- yesdesignerror
- Thats what I thought. But now thinking of what stimuli said about downloads. Ah fuck, donkey balls.ian

i just use an external 250GB black WD Passport.
Plugs right into the front usb plugs, very small, portable, and matches the PS3 glossy black. You can barley even notice it's there.

I just bought the 40 GB one and I think it'll be fine. Don't plan on playing any older games, and the PS3 doesn't have many great games right now anyway. I'll worry about having more space later, if I really need it. I guess an external HD would be better if you plan on getting blu-ray films. I prefer the 40GB since it's newer too.
