PS3 News: 60GB Hard Drive Comes As Standard

[[Chris]]

According to Yahoo! Games, confirmations are in that the PlayStation 3 will all ship with a 60GB hard drive as a standard. In addition, optional upgrades for higher capacities will be available - although it’s unknown if we could buy an upgraded console, or that we have to buy the upgrade separately.

This is great news for both developers and consumers, as that would mean less problem including HDD-related features in games. But the bad news is, we don’t know how this might affect pricing.

I'd probably pay $499.99 US max for it...

Well, I think it's worth it to spend a lot if what you're buying will actually be worth it...

If someone's going to give me a quality product, I'm willing to give them a lot back by buying games, consoles, etc.

£500 is worth it for the PS3 console. and yes that is GOOD NEWS :)

Well done Sony :D

That handsets ugly.
Ill give it a few months before i buy, have a look at the games. I know they'll be some good ones, but im not spending that amount if im not confident i will like the games. I made that mistake with PSP, theres some alright ones but not as good as i expected.

[Bear-Max]

Yup, the PS3 is ugly :D

It hasn't even been confirmed that the hard drive will come with the console; it's required but you might have to buy it separately to make the console look cheaper. Oh yeah and the hard drive will run Linux, which I'm not sure is a great idea as using a current OS will only mean hackers can take advantage straight away.

Oh, and anyone thought how MASSIVE a 60GB hard drive would be? I'll try and find a picture of the Xbox360 one, which is what developers use.

[Neversoft]

GameCube ;P

Looks like your the only one who thinks that. ;)
