because of installing.

I don't mind installing, but I mind the ****ing size of it.

4 gigs? 5 gigs? I only haev 60 gigs d@mn it!!!!

I thought about playing Heavenly Sword again, and i pop the disc. It says I can't play it because I don't have space to install it. Then I look around what to delete and whatever, and eventually the trouble was too much for me to pop that in to play an hour or two.

I hope less games relies on installing, and if they do, keep it around 500 mb.

Yes, it's very hard to delete the games you aren't playing at the moment. You clearly need them installed all the time.

Get a bigger HDD, it takes like 5 minutes to install if that. You never have to worry about space again.

I have too much downloaded games and save files. Moving all that would be major pain.

Not to mention SF4 don't allow you to move the save files.

You back up your hard drive, its built right into the ps3 os.

You plug in an external hdd click back up and it backs it up.

You replace HDD.

Go to XMB and say restore from backup, it restores it all and your good to go. I don't recall having to re-download stuff again.

That's what I do. The problem is when you think about playing an old game you finished, it becomes major annoyance.

Facepalm back at you.

I am getting the 160GB PS3, so space will never be a issue for me. But it does suck for those who have small HDD.
