Buy a 500 gig drive for about the same price as doing that import and upgrade. you'll be glad you did. it's super simple and doesn't break warranty (in fact, it's built so you can). google it for easy instructions.

Redownload? Why not just back up your existing hard drive to external storage, swap out the drive, and then restore onto the new drive? You'd keep all your existing games, save files, images, music, videos, bookmarks, browser history, etc.

Or you could just back up your PS3 to an external, swap in the new drive, and then restore. Worked just fine for me and I didn't have to redownload anything

Or just use your PS3's drive for gaming and connect a 1TB drive for media etc. I just bought an external iomega 1TB drive for $80. Plus, this way I can organize folders for videos/music using my PC. I love my PS3, but its media sorting capabilities are terrible.

I dont use my PS3's HDD for music or Videos (just some PSN videos) since i use my PC as a Media Server. I should buy a 500 GB HDD tho and get of course an 80 GB External Drive to Back every damn game. Wish i could buy HDD so cheap as u guys said, but down here (Argentina, as u can see thru my lame English) things are a lil bit more expensive...

Jesus christ, 8-10 gigs with my psn speeds will most likely take all day to download :(

tiger, if you really want it, you could start downloading it near the end of the month, 'pause' the download from download managment, and do the rest the next week. a pain, sure, but it would let you get around your cap.

I don't know about anywhere else but I've gone 20 gigs+ over my quota for the month a couple of times and no complaints.

Wait a minute, I don't think your math is quite right there.

Hentai - Hentai = Record of agarest war?
Nah.
Hentai - Hentai = CAPTAIN PLANET!
There. Fixed.

If the person had a 20GB, they're screwed.

This is why I went with the 160 from the start, so I didn't have to upgrade as fast. I'm down to 75 left now.

Upgrade process is painless and easy. I had the 60 GB and upgraded about 2 years ago to 200+ GB's and I've got like 60 GB's left and have never even thought of deleting a single demo or game file. It took all of 30 minutes to do it from start to finish. I just backed up everything the night before, swapped out the HDD, restored it and was done.

9130MB.
Making it about 8.9GBs. So, yeah that one is the biggest one so far. Unless this on is 9 or 10 GBs.

Yeah but Siren had to be downloaded in parts with the cumulative memory being just over 9GB.

Really? It's a 2D game, it must have a LOT of content.

Lots of uncompressed ero--I mean, images. Lots of uncompressed squea--I mean, audio. Multiplied by lots of gir--I mean, characters. But, you know, as they all tell you, size doesn't matter, right? For this game, "GB" isn't GigaBytes; we measure this one in Girly-Blocks.

Some of the JP games, while being 2d have some epic storylines and details in the games. I can remember some old RPG's that were 2 disk, top down scroller. Not to mention the recent "Valkyria Chronicles" That game was just scary with the extra content that wasn't directly game related.

Sorry, couldn't tell you. It's at the bottom of my backlog mountain at the moment. All I know is that it has an optional install of ~4GB and the music at the title screen is extremely annoying. Plus it has no trophies because it's an old game. I wonder if Aksys will be adding trophies like NISA did with Cross Edge?

I have no download cap, but I have a slow connection, 1.70Mb/s, it would take me around 14 hours to download it....

math is off; it'd take >2hours with 1.7mb/s. 14hours would net you 85gb...

I read Dark as Dork in the screenshot. There should be a game with the Dork alignment.

I remember trying the free demo for this on the Japanese store. It was five hours long if I'm not mistaken.

This is Metal Gear Solid 4 levels of resistance to decompression. There is no way that this game is compressed and still carries that much data.

This is why I don't believe Digital Distribution will ever work beyond small minigames.
What with the majority of peoples internet speeds not being that fast and because Terrabyte Hard Drives have only just come onto the market.

I dunno why everytime i read " Record Of " I start to get over excited thinking Record Of Lodoss War then i read Agarest war not Lodoss War and then i got worked up for nothing and i feel let down but then i think i can't wait too see more of this title.


tho record of lodoss war was a Diablo like clone i LOVED it ! i thought the game was great ... * sigh * only one can hope ... that and the PSN title Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together as a PS1 Downloadable title
