Hard Drive install is a big issue for gamers who have less space on the PlayStation 3. With Gran Turismo 5 coming very soon, expect a hard drive install when it comes out.

According to Kazunori Yamauchi, the game has an optional hard drive install but to run the game, a 256MB space is required. The amount of space needed for the install is at least 10GB and gamers can expect a smooth experience. If this is indeed true, 10GB is indeed one of the biggest game that has an install on the PlayStation 3.

They should also offer a "Full" install for those who have the space. I've got 240gigs free...

10 gigs?.... I have the 60 gb and I doubt ill be able to do that I dont have much space left... Lame.

eh, dont really mind since ill probaly delete that install after playing it.

I have a 320gb HDD on my original 60GB model 8) no problem for me.

What the hell! Well, I'm glad I have the space. I want my GT5 experience to be as good as possible. First they make us wait so long, now they make us sacrifice so much memory :P.

I have 500 GB. GT5 is no match for me. Haahhaha.

the way i see it is that 10GB is worth using them for such an awesome game.. cant wait for GT5 :P

[QUOTE="The_RedLion"]That's fail on the PS3 part. Every 360 can be installed to the HDD. Sony be slacking in that. On GT5, meh, GT has been pretty mediocre since GT2, imo.chaplainDMK

I gotta lotta space left on my ol 500GB HDD from my 60GB ps3 (which died a few weeks ago:(). I can transfer that HDD to my new ps3 so I'm good.

Well fortunately, unless you're 12 years old and unable to get a paper-route for 2 months, $60 + tax can get you a 500GB hard drive for your PS3. And even cheaper alternatives if you're willing to settle for less space.

Wow, 10 gb? Good thing I'm not into racing games. My 20 gig PS3 only has a couple of megabytes left.

looks like i'm gonna have to free up some space on the old 40gig.

I dont care.. i have the 250 gig slim :D

Cool, can use up some of the space on my 320gb HDD..

my 2hundo is shaking in its boots. Uh oh.

On a more real note, that size is utterly ridiculous if true, but almost(not quite) understandable.

:( I have maybe 5gb left on my 80gb

The only issue here....having to wait to play it while it installs. :P

Nah not an issue...it could be 20g's and that would be just fine.

10 Gigs ?? Thats horrible :?Sp4rtan_3

ugh. no it is not.

Many PS3 owners have this space to spare.

Easy. It is optional. The 10 gb install, that is.

[QUOTE="Easyle"][QUOTE="Sp4rtan_3"] But what about the early adopters ? with 20, 40 and 60 GB PS3's ? Slim user's dont have the problem but early adopters do.Sp4rtan_3

Most people with a 20 40 or 60g PS3 have either upgraded their HDD's, or they have learned how to manage their space on their HDD's. But, like i and others have said, this 10gb install IS optional.

It may be an "optional" install... but I assume it will have a huge effect on shortening load times.

Thank you thank you :D

I hope its not like Gran Turismo for the PSP, that game also had an "optional" install. The load times were so ridiculously long in GTPSP without the install.

Wow... 10GB install for the "full experience" and yet cows will pass this off, but Forza 3 comes with 2 discs and it's a dumpster fire here. :roll:

Ya...i had no opinion about that, but since you bring it up...

2 discs is inconvenient, while an OPTIONAL 10gb install is a breeze...if you can spare the space. Which, many of us cows can spare without blinking.

well you make it sound like your going to have t delete like 10 games. When in reality, what like 3 at the most? When is the last time you played the games you will be deleting?

BTW your sig is funny.

Not sure if you knew this, but PS3 owners (any type of console) can upgrade their console up to 500GB+ hdds :P
