| LMAO PS3 is all about mandatory installs, firmware updates and game patch downloads. Bioshock 2 for PS3 is confirmed to have a 5gig mandatory install.

| How many mandatory installs must a gamer be subject to before his harddrive is full? Why should a gamer be forced to choose what game's he has room for on his harddrive? It's the Sophie's Choice of video game decisions. |

| So much for blu-ray having 25GB storage when it cant even keep up with the read rate that games need. |

| I wonder what chap thought it would be great for gamers to be forced to do mandatory installs instead of being given the choice |

Very true. The blu-ray is almost pointless. The only thing it's really used for is so the disks hold so much but you technically aren't playing the games from the disks themselves. Seriously, eventually games may just be sold on memory sticks. |
