My Final word on the PS2 HD Adapter. . .

Its just starting to get on my nerves as to all the BS its getting. Im just going to try to not reply to anymore Hard Drive post from this time on. So I wanted to give my final word on the matter. Im going to buy it. Why, I know some may ask. Right now I couldn\'t give many reasons as to why im buying one. But I can give you two. Twisted Metal: Black Online and Final Fantasy XI. Well, "boys and girls" , thats all the reasons I need.

Thats fair enough. People are entitled to there reasons though.

I personally don\'t know. If the HD is primary for online play ill give it a miss due to telco charges in the UK.

I mean come on they aren\'t going to sort out free calls. Its UK afterall.

Well, that I think is that not everyone will get it when it first comes out. People will eventually start buying when it becomes more common...

Neither game requires the HDD.

well im split of the whole hdd thing. ill buyt he eithernet card, but i dont know about the hdd, its so expencive.

one question, have they said that final fantasy XI will use the hdd?

if so, then i may get it...

Yes, Final Fantasy XI will use the HDD in some way.

Faster load times.... and saving your game. That\'s it.

oh that\'s it...i would like to know where you found this information at. do you got some "inside" information about Final Fantasy IX and the HDD??? I don\'t think so.

ok, so thats it, well, would it be optional? cuz im not hip to payin 100$ for a hdd on top of a 49.99 eithernet card.. (didi i spell that right?)

Why do the online games require HDD?

I\'m definately buying the HDD. The way I see it.. since I\'m waiting for the PS2\'s price to drop to 199, I\'ll end up paying just 50 bucks more than you all did JUST for the PS2 at launch! HA hA. Plus I won\'t have to wade through the drought of good games... there\'ll be plenty of them by the time I pick mine up!

First you (or Caspien) link me to where it says the games require the HDD. And FFIX is a PSone game...

C\'mon people!  Use common sense!  By FFIX, they meant FFXI, just got the two letters flipped in typing.

And yes, I too would like to see this link.
