Truth of the matter is... the HDD was optional for the PS2 and it was STILL a powerhouse. It might be stupid to not have one like MS, but then to those who have big plans for it... Will eventually see past it.

And to some a 20gig would be plenty, for them they wouldnt need to do anything, for you, you'd buy a bigger one and upgrade it.

fact is, the HD was optional for PS2 and look at all the wonderful games that used it! look at how much all the developers used of its potential. This is what happens when things are addon instead of standard.

PS3 NEEDS to have a HD come standard. or they are going to really be feeling it as online gaming for consoles takes off and they're left far far behind..
