Hard drive
I want to know who among you, realisticly, sees themselves purchasing one in the near future. Or who already has one.
I bought a new PS2 today, and it came with the HDD ( i think it says on it), so im pretty sure im set in that area, for San Andreas, and GT4. unless i have, like a fake version...or have to do anything like set it up somehow in the options menu and am just too stupid to figure it out.
But anyways, i bought the PS2 "bundle pack" deal. Which is a PS2, ATV offroad fury 2, a controller, and a hard drive, all for the price of $199.99 + taxes (canadian money). What i dont get is why are they still selling the independant PS2's? they both sell for the same price. Who would buy the system alone, instead of getting the HDD and a game?

Re: Hard drive
People who don't plan on going online would probably rather pay less money and buy the system seperate.

Re: Hard drive
sounds to me like you bought the bundle pack that included the network adapter but no hard drive... i could be wrong, but that's just what i think for that price.

Re: Hard drive
On the back theres this thing clipped into it....im pretty sure it says HDD on it.....although..i MAY just be an idiot.
And Crash, if i didnt but the bundle pack, the system alone, without anything else would have been the same price. I think they are trying to boost sales or something.
But, now that i think about it, it probably isnt the HD....although like i said, its in the back of the system, and says HDD on it...bleh, only time will tell.

Re: Hard drive
You got the Network Adaptor man... It says HDD on the back of it because that is where you are supposed to hook it up to, I believe.

Re: Hard drive
would be easier just to pull it out and see if the big rectangle hole is empty or has a HD in it.

Re: Hard drive
I'll get it when Chain Of Promethia... the expansion pack for FFXI comes out.
That game will be AMAZING... Plus MGS3 and GT4 will probably use the HD.

Re: Hard drive
Be prepared to download a LOT if you are waiting that long to get FFXI

I know... I'll survive.
Also people I got a question... what if I import a US version of FFXI and HD... to Europe and try to use it on my Pal PS2.(With modchip of course)
Will it work? |

It should for the game. Not sure how the HD will react to a PAL PS2 since I dont know if there are any changes between US/PAL PS2's that make the HD not work with other regions.

Is there a thing called "PAL PS2"...or was he trying to say " a pal's PS2"? because those could be very different things.

 was that a joke?
Anywho. the hard drive SHOULD be the same for both NTSC and PAL PS2's
it may however be formated differently. that im not sure of.
