It's at the top of my GameFly list so i can check it out but I'm not expecting it to be anything new or innovative.

Can't believe Hot Shots uses the 4GB install as well. I still play my PSP version from time to time, but each version seems so similar to the last I never feel the need to get another one.

Have they always had the ability to reassign the controller setting (i.e. to controller 1)? I just found this option today when I tried to play a game but the controller was set to #3. I'd swear it hasn't always been there, but then I don't pay the best attention all the time.

Don't like that you have to load 4 GB of data before you begin. I don't know how long my 60 GB HDD will last if most games require space like that.

It's hard to even fathom how 4 GB of date could be in that game. It doesn't look to be the most graphically taxing or content-intensive game around.

Kind of an odd question, but if I want to upgrade the storage capacity on the PS3 specifically for game saves, PSN Store downloads, etc. can I just "add" an external/portable hdd running through the usb (which would be in addition to the regular PS3 hdd) or do I have to physically install a larger internal one in the unit?

PSN store gives me a choice as to which drive I wish to download to. Maybe this
is just for storage and I'd have to put the items on the internal to play them,
I've never actually chosen to download to the external. I'll have to give it a try.

It also doesn't explicitly state that it remember this stuff if you turn the unit off, though I hope that's a given.

It looks strikingly average to me (doesn't help that the cover looks like Assassin's Creed from the distance).

How many discs will it resume? Is there a set limit, or could I throw 500 Blu-Ray discs in there and have it resume each one anytime I put it back in?
