    how would it make faster loading times? it would only do it for games that support the thing and not many will

    It hold hella information thats way to big for the memory card, such as your stats, new levels, patch, ect...

    how would it make faster loading times? it would only do it for games that support the thing and not many will
    The reason is becuase the information is strored on the harddrive. If you were to die it wouldnt have to reload becuse the harddrive already has it ready.

    only reason i would get a hard drive is if with it you could mod the ps2 the way some xboxs are modded. you can play movies(avi, etc.) mp3s and all kinds of other stuff.
    More reasons is that for example T.H.U.G (Tony Hawks Underground), It will have downloadable level that cant be stored on a memory card. Upgrades and any thing the gamedevelopers want to give out. It endless becuase now we have 40gigs of space.

    Also i dont think that older games will support saving to the hard drive, but when it comes out more and more games will. Or mabey they will make a patch for it, so that you can save to the HDD.

    5 moths not a year, and it will have a warenty.

    No FFXI is free with it, i am thinking that the game is on the HDD. It by how they are saying it installed with the HDD.


    EDIT: also it will have better graphics, when released in japan they gave a demastion. Dam the graphics were smooth.

    I don&#39;t think FFXI is going to come with the harddrive. I heard it was the other way around; there will be version of FFXI retail with the harddive included, and some without.

    Personally, I&#39;m going to get FFXI for the PC, mainly because of the additional cost it would be for me to get the harddrive and the network adapter for my PS2. Anyone tried out the benchmark/demo they have for the PC version of FFXI? :drools:
