rebelkiller93 Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 If you got the 12GB version, you might as well upgrade as hard drives and even SSDs are very affordable these days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remilia Scarlet Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 All PS3 HDDs are upgradeable. You might as well because 12 GB is not going to give you any mileage whatsoever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many games have you got to get you started? 12 GB isn't much space, but not every disc game needs space for the entire disc on the drive. See how many games you can play before you need to replace the drive, then do it then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This^ You will burn through 12gb very quickly, depending on the games you're after so I would upgrade to a 500gb drive at the bare minimum.

fbdbh Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 I got a good few years out of a 12 GB. If you have some PS3 games on PS Plus, definitely upgrade, and some rare games are cheaper digitally, but you can get a lot out of playing discs. Just beware the extremely large installs like MGS4.

GUDGER666 Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Really depends, I'm guessing you don't have many digital games? If that's the case then definitely buy Discs, 99% will play on a 12gb PS3 and a large portion have no install other than a tiny update. But SSDs are so cheap now, it's a no brainer imo.

Jeanolt Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 (edited) 12GB is definitely nothing, although you can dowload things on a PS3 without meeting the ceiling. I always had a 500gb one and I still have more than 100gb available, that's having more than a hundred demos, games, or trials installed from different stores. With the slow download speeds, I'd recommend you to upgrade and you'll never have to uninstall anything again. Edited April 25 by Jeanolt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
