The HDD will cause a split among PSX2 owners: Those who habve it, and those who don\'t. Who will developers want to appeal to? Both ideally but who wants a game they acnt get most out of because they dont have a HDD?


A modem will cause even more, smaller divisions.

Hard drive my ass.  Give me some more games.  I already gave Sony $300 and I can count all the PS2 games available on my 2 hands (that\'s 11 right?)

HD is going to run us at least $100.  Sorry but no thanks.  Maybe a year or 2 down the road, but sure as hell not now.

I don\'t know,the thing will cost some money.And currently I don\'t see any advantige in having the thing.If Sony has something up it\'s sleeve with the hdd,something that will improve the games than ofcourse I\'ll buy it.
I recently discovered that my ass is the key to the universe.....now I must fight to protect my ass from those who might abuse it!!!

it\'s a given for me,no question i\'ll get it..but how soon i get it is the real question (as for the broadband adapter,i\'m imagining a game like Twisted Metal would be a perfect fit for me online,chaos on wheels against everyone :D )

Yes depending on a handful of factors:

a) Broadband availability in my area and if its supported by Sonys network.

b) Service provided by Sonys network - what will be on it? I can already get quality multiplayer games on the PC, so hopefully it will have something else to offer.

c) Subscription charges - how much it will actually cost for Sonys services, the costs for broadband in itself may well be enough.

d) Software support - If the games arent there, why bother?

e) Cost of pheriphal - Im not going to go out and buy it unless its reasonably priced, great service or not.

Well...it depends on the games supporting it and the price. But is allows for really cool new features such as thsi one!

The xbox game Amped will allow you to save yer own music onto the hdd and then play it in the game...sounds kewl right??! :)

and offcourse it will be a REALLY big memory card! ;)
