I know Halo:Reach loads up faster once installed on the HD of the 360 but I'm not sure if all 360 games function like this.

Also, if you download games, demo's, put your own music on the ps3 to play in games or just listen to, photos, videos, system updates, anything really on the ps3... they all use the hard drive... Also, the memory is easy to upgrade if needed, it uses a laptop Sata 2.5'' Hard Drive. I had a 60 GB and made it 250, but that just died so just bought a new 320 GB...

To all! Thank you very much! Couldn't really have a question answered much better. I've been out of the console and gaming world for a while and now I am more up to speed.
