    The price has already been lowered, it went down $100 from 599 to 499, and soon there will be a 80gb model with Motorstorm for 599

    it&#39;s called the system NOT being cracked, games are on discs remember...? -_- The most that happens is a game will cache like 2gb to your HD to play the game better, which you can delete at anytime when you stop playing the game

    The system uses 2.5" Sata drives, not the regular drives you find in desktop PC&#39;s. So there aren&#39;t 400+ GB drives you can just swap in there.

    And I have no problem spending $70 on a game for the ps3, almost everygame I&#39;ve bought has been well worth it

    i heard PS3 sales jumped 2000% the first day after the price drop down, now PS3 sales passed WII and 360 in the U.S market
    p.s as far as i know the max capacity for 2.5 sata HDD is 250GB ( 5 games =P )

    You have to remember tho, not all games are 25gb, some are around 14, some near 20 I believe. Metal Gear Solid 4 will be 50gb as Hideo wants to maximize the BluRay possibilities.

    To me cracking the ps3 to install the games on your HD is pointless due to their size, besides every other console out there had to be hacked to run Linux, the Ps3 has on option in it&#39;s settings to "Install another OS". They allow you, and support you to download/install Linux on the console, so that took away from some of the initial homebrew to get an OS on the system

    And their sales went up 2700% on amazon when their price went down

    yeah currently the only game that will be 50gb is MGS4, and i&#39;m sure by the time u can use ur external 3.5 HHD on PS3 as an extended storage , we tried it on PS2 but when we did it we had some bugs in some games, but i hope there is a way to use 3.5 HHD on PS3 without any bugs
