We might be getting a 40gb PS3 with COD4 and Ncaa Football 08 plus 2 controllers and i have a few questions...

1. I saw a few threads with guys that said that you has only a few games on his PS3 and he has 20gb left, do they mean full games, or gamesaves (they were GTA4 and COD4)?

2. What are some reccomended games besides the ones i'm getting?

3. Also i have a PSP and what are the benifits of remote play?

Thanks in advance!;)

I just changed the case to

ATOP AT-AP103WBB Black SGCC steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case - Retail
$39.99 (29.99 After Mail in Rebate)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811105012

and the total is now $551! Wow, before i was looking at PC's like this and they were $1500 or more, suprising how cheap it is for stuff that does so much, i mean $21.99 for a DVD-ROM Drive, remember how much this stuff was when it first came out?

Wow, thanks for the advice, the total is now $501 without SLI, i didn't change the graphics card because i read that the 8800 GTS is better than the 9600GT. is that true? Also any other advice for changes will be apreciated, and i don't think i'm gonna to go sli right away since i'm not an extreme gamer and just one of those chips are really good.
