Stop Complaining About Hard Drive Installs

ps3 picture

Why are people so bent out of shape about having to install games to the PS3’s hard drive? There has been a lot of uproar about install times for MGS4 as well as the other new games that require it (remember how pissy the fanbois were about the install for DMC4?). The install is there to IMPROVE the gaming experience by reducing load times!

I guess the arguement will be made that the PS3 is a console and that hard drive installations are for PC’s. I guess the argument is valid but I would like to point out one thing - the hard drive installation improves the way the game plays! No developer would ever make a player sit through an install if it did not contribute to the quality of the game. We should be happy that developers are starting to take advantage of the luxurys afforded by next gen systems and actually using the hardware tools made available to them.
