Many people think the hard disk is more for video and DLC, not game installs. So I don't blame consumers if they didn't know. |
True true, but it's very easy to amend the memory solution (at least in comparison to it's two competitors).
You can go out and spend fifty bucks on an 120 gig hard drive for the PS3, and then swap it out yourself, and install games, DLC, and whatever until you're blue in the face. But on the 360, once you fill up your hard drive (20 or 120 gigs), you're maxed out. There are no bigger sizes than that, while 2.5" hard drives can go up to 250 gb, more than dobule that. And for the Wii, once your system memory is low, you'll be deleting, moving stuff from your memory to your SD card.
So yes, installs aren't fun, and take up space, but you can do something about that, whereas, you really can't on the other two systems.
