80GB or 160GB?
I am buying a PS3 for my son. What advantage does a bigger hard drive give you? Is it worth the extra money?
i Go 80GB. i have a 60GB system (it's discontinued.) and i haven't run out of space yet, even after adding about 300 Audio tracks and playing about 20-30 different games and storing save game files on it. A bigger hard drive simply allows the user to store more game data onto the system for later use. I think it's a waste to pay 100$ to get 80 more gigs. If you run out of space with 80 gigs (which i believe is HIGHLY unlikely unless you're a total game freak), just delete some stuff via the PS3's HDD Access from the home menu. So in short...
-80 Gigs should be more than enough space for your son.
-A bigger hard drive allows users to store more data
-No, probably not worth the extra money unless you'll be too lazy to do a hard drive clean up every 6 months or so.
