[QUOTE="Cyphus07"] 1) We don't have as many good games as the 360 (though we will soon)
2) The HDD wasn't bigger than it was (i got a 60gig and upgraded it to 250gig)
3) Loading times with some games that also have installs.
- I don't mind the installs of games.
However, with installs there shouldn't be loading times. MSG4 does a good job of having installs without loading screens. Star Wars: TFU does not do a good job - it has a large install with loading times (very annoying)
Even so, these aren't reasons not to buy or own a Ps3. The x360 has just as many if not more negatives.

ughh MGS4 had loading screens, even with the installs, like during the chase scene in Act 3 ... between the drive theres a loading screen (WTF) this was my only grife with the game considering the installs, but once again thats not a ps3 thing thats a dev thing.
I find it odd people complaining about the HDD, when sony made it so that you could replace it with ease. and didnt have to buy a specific HDD and spend much more like, 80 dollars for a 20GB or 160 dollars for 120GB. Seeing as I can get a 320 GB for my PS3 for 90 bucks.
Did MSG4 have other loading screens? I don't recall that it did, but it has been some time since I have played it. Doh, my mistake - so... MSG4 also has bad loading screens. *cough*
I only mentioned the HDD b/c as cheap as you can buy large HD's these days you'd think Sony could just throw one in for us. Even when the Ps3 was released HD's of larger than 60gigs were available for a relatively low price - Sony could have gone larger. Maybe that would have compounded the problem of exceeding production costs vs. sale price - that whole debocle, i'm sure you all remember that, Sony losing money, yada yada yada.
However, now they have the ability to include a larger drive, which ... well they are finally doing it, 160gig - yes? Good.
Don't get me wrong, Ps3 is still a great deal when compared to the x360 - so... all is well.
