A Sony representative has confirmed this morning that PlayStation 3 will come with a 60GB HDD as standard, but that can be upgraded if preferred. Some of the larger US websites have been speculating that PlayStation 3 would be shipping with an optional 60GB hard disc drive. However it was confirmed this morning that all PS3 consoles will be sold with the HDD out of the box. Sony's president of Computer Entertainment, Ken Kutaragi, announced on Wednesday that all PS3 games are being developed to take advantage of the 60GB HDD.

Well, welcome to the next gen. And in the next gen, MS didnt include a standard HDD with the 360, and, MS wants you to pay to play online. Sony on the other hand has a standard HDD (unlike the 360) with 60GB (unlike the 360s optional 20BG), and gives you free online play.

Let's look at it this way, Microsoft got greedy this year and may have made a big mistake. The PS3 is going the right way for the moment, no way to be sure until it's out...

[Geist]

Listen,I'm not gonna argue which console is better anymore, ok?I just like X-boxes because I like the fps and rpg games like halo,kotor,morrowind,and jade empire.

[Hamma]

It's like arguing religion there is no winner.

I like the path they are taking though - they have to do a pretty bang up job to make up for the time the 360 has been out.

At one time there was 2 XBoxes and 2 PS2s in my house. All networked together and on the internet. Then my friend moved out. And took his XBox and PS2. So now I'm just down to one of each again.

[Hamma]

Yea I have both - I don't have a 360 yet though to rich for my blood.

[Ivan]

Yeah I'm going to wait a while to buy anything. I'll wait till some really good games come out. Though, I have a feeling I might end up buying a PS3 before the 360.

Fixed.

[Giovanni]

Oy don't get me wrong. I love the X-Box just as much as the Playstation! I love my gaming... I just have so little time for it lately.
