Re: the mystery behind playstation 3's installs !

I agree. I don't see what the issue is with installs? What makes me laugh is one of the comments in that post. Just be thankful you don't have two different installs of GT5 installed like i currently have (Jap/UK) i know that when i need more space i can just buy a 250Gb or more Hdd and not get shafted like 360 owners do

I am a new PS3 owner who bought in because GT5 Prologue was just released here in the UK. I never knew anything about these installations until I got my machine and I have to say I was appalled that this game ate up 6GB of my tiny 40GB drive.
All i can say to that is, try doing the same on the 360's 20Gb hdd, or should that be 13Gb (just using normal premium as example)

You can't please people all of the time.
