I got a new harddrive for my PS3 not too long ago, and I'm just now diving head first into the murky waters of reinstallment.
When my 40 gigger began running low on open space (I was left with 9 gigs, and with Ratchet and Clank Future: Quest for Booty comprising of 2GB itself, I knew I was in trouble), I decided to man up and mod my system. Of course, this was a legal mod that didn't void my warranty so I couldn't have been any more fake-brave.
Before you make the ol' switch-a-roonie-doonie (this is officially my Rachel Ray post), it's recommended you back-up your info, which is basically saves and downloaded games. I did so, quite easily in fact. Although by the amount of sweat my t-shirt began to collect, you'd think otherwise. I get nervous about this kind of stuff, the last thing I need is a bricked system. That and an ulcer.
So now I'm going through the joys of putting in a game disc and having it first install itself to my harddrive, then find an update, download that update, and then install that update. Time of my life.
I'm just about done, though, I've saved the best for last. Devil May Cry 4's 20+ minute installation time will be mine to enjoy. I'll possibly boot the entire family out of the house, just in case they try to sneak a peak and the game's spellbounding installation process.
Now if you'll excuse me, Warhawk has to update itself for a while. Thank you.
