uh, depends on which studio made your disk, folks. most want HDMI used for a reason - copyright protection.

the ps3 is already selling at a big loss, but the games are pretty shit, and hell even at the fucking loss it's still 600 clams, that might have something to do with it.

I dont NEED A 120gig drive and probably wont ever need one. ATM, my HDD is nowhere near full, and its got demos and movies, the lot.

You only need it to store your largr movies from the HD store.

But even then... Fuck just plug in an extenal USB HDD? Cheaper, and its THERE then...

i haven't even thought of that. can you play demos and shit directly off the usb hard drive? does it play without lag? if so i might just be getting myself one then.

odium in denial, fancy that.

What gets me about o'dium, is that he is the biggest bitcher on these forums about gaming & technology in general - by far and bar none.
Yet, when someone else is bitching about something they don't think is quite right, he's nearly always the first one to tell people to stop bitching.

I could handle his constant bitching, if it weren't for threads like this where he tries to call people whiners. As if.

Why would you get that when it probably makes it harder to play pirated games?

no you cant. you can read from it, not write to it, i.e. no downloads to your fancy 500GB USB drive. so odium is telling only half the truth

Heres the thing... It was great to begin with, and then, it wasn't really that great after all.

I may not be with this lass i'm with now forever. Thats life!

At least I can pull women, unlike 90% of the nerds on this forum

o'dium thinks he's better with women than 90% of the people here.
