AshleyAshes Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Through modifying the console. I'm talking about standard, in the box.The consoles didn't need modification. The drive replacement is a feature, it's one screw, pops in and out. The Xbox 360 would be an exception, but I didn't list it. However all the all three, plus the Xbox 360, are capable of installing games to the hard drive to reduce loading times. Also, obviously, with downloading the games from the internet, which is what EVERYBODY is going to do next generation (And they've already made strong moves towards it THIS generation and it'll only grow as it continues) and they are not going to go to removable flash storage.

AshleyAshes Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 The PS2 needed to be modified for the HDD because it never came stock with one.The fat PS2's natively supported the HDD, you only needed the PS2 Network Adaptor, which doubled as a network adaptor and the IDE interface for the HDD. They sold 40GB kits for FF11, which required the HDD. However FF11 is basically the exception. A handful of other PS2 games could use the HDD for DLC downloads but that was it, no installing other games to the HDD unless you really did mod it. And, well, it was such a small feature that the slim PS2's omitted it even though they had network capabilities built in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
