Sony Undecided On PS3 HDD As Standard News

By Jon Wilcox on 02/06/2005 SCEI Chief Technical Officer speaks to a Japanese publication about the PS3's hard drive...

The prospect of a hard drive for the PlayStation 3 as standard “…has yet to be decided” according to Sony Computer Entertainment Inc.’s Chief Technical Officer Masayuki Chatani in an interview with the Japanese publication, Famitsu.

The next-generation console includes a slot to for the inclusion of a removable hard disk drive, which the CTO commented would allow PS3 owners to upgrade the storage capacity when required, as well as allowing them to transplant the device over to other PlayStation 3 units.

The inclusion of a hard drive will be the first time that a Sony console will reach Europe with a large storage device, as the PlayStation 2’s HDD was never officially released in the territory.

We’ll have more when confirmation is made...

lol also for anyone with a brain you can buy a western digital 2.5 sata 320gb hdd for just under £50 twice the size for the same price as buying the 80gb with the 320gb hdd as the 160gb ps3 (lol yet again another sony rip off for the uk) whos cares about £55 of content id rather have a bigger hdd instead of supposedly free content worth more than a 320gb hdd

lol anyone up for £55 of content on the £355 160gb ps3 (and i thought the ps3 was supposed to be future proof with this news obviously not as this case has proved)though knowing sony the actual uk price will more than likely be higher probably matching the us price somewhere near $400 so in the uk itll be £400 lol.

lol sonys shares have plumeted again lol due to laptops catching fire yet again (dont beleve me look in the latest issue of micr mart) sony have recalled over 450,000 of its laptops due to faulty wiring id be a bit concerned if youve just got a ps3 with faulty wiring as its gonna be a costly mistake to fix if it burn your house down (what was that about the rrod at least it dont catch fire lol)

So was it all just Hardware 2? Haven't seen any other confirmation, but what a joke - mountain out of a molehill Playstation blog.

Why do people say its ffVII sequel!!! If you read the initial story it says it has nothing to do with ffV11 and its not an RPG!! Chances are there is no big announcement and it was a big joke!!

I've heard about something from one of the BBC blog but doesn't say what it is, it might be something to do with that. I doubt there will be a major announcement
