Agreed that the system is becoming very attractive with all these localizations.  Let me ask you, if I buy physical as much as possible how quickly will I run into storage issues on a 8gb memory card?


Depends what you're interested in and where you live.

Since you mentioned localizations, I presume you're interested in Japanese stuff.  If you live in USA you'll be fine - pretty much everything has gotten a physical release and there will only be minor installs for a few games.

(Even if you live in Europe, I suppose, you can import physical copies).

If you intend to get any PSP or PS1 games, you're out of luck, I'd imagine 8GB will fill pretty fast.  Stuff like Dissidia; Persona 3; Final Fantasy VII-IX are all more than 1GB each.

Also, there's a few localizations which are going to be download-only in every region.  Miku; Monster Monpiece, the Atelier games; EDF 2017 etc.  Also the X-2 part of FFX HD is download only.  I know the Atelier games and FFX-2 are pushing 3GB each.

However, if you can juggle with PS3 (I hate doing this because transfers are so slow), then you should be alright for any amount of time.
