I'm hearing random mentions of people installing games to the PS3 hard drive.  Could you inform a non PS3 owner about installing games on the PS3?

None require, it's optional, and I think only Ridge Racer and Virtua FIghter do that.

Genji does, too.

In any case, it's a FULLY OPTIONAL procedure, so there shouldn't be too much of a problem (except even worse loading times) for you 20gb owners.

Far more that, pretty much ever other game requires hdd, just to compensate for the gymped blu-ray seek speeds. PS3 is turning into an ghetto pc.

How large are the installs?  Why are the advantages?  Is the 20 gig going to be enough?

I don't know, but doesn't that defeat the purpose of a console?

I haven't noticed much of a difference at all between an installed game and the same game uninstalled.
