12 GB? I have enough!

For 174 I slammed and just wanted a device that simultaneously provides access to LOVEFiLM and max cathedrals.
Because that can so far only the Playstation.Beides works perfectly, the PS3 is also the only device that makes available to the 18+ range from LOVEFiLM. My first requirements are thus more than fulfilled.

By critical reviews of the "limited" flash memory of 12GB, I started to research what games I then possibly still would be able to play.
Since the Amazon info indicating to the games almost always the used disk space with, I quickly found out:
I can do a whole lot of games spielen.Inzwischen I WipeoutHD downloaded and installed from the store for 7,99 and games also parallel Killzone3, Uncharted3 & Dead Space. And I still have 7.1 GB free disk space. As far as I am glad for the reviews that complained about the lack of memory, because I was informed by them beforehand and said: For me, the memory is more than sufficient.

Also recognizes the PS3 my PLEX server in the home network and streaming movies easily - even a thumbnail of cover provides the PS3 - this is an unexpected added value for me. All media will be played - even FullHD MKVs. Although me an acquaintance said that MKVs not be played by the PS3. Per PLEX any case it works.

Chance I read of a high-pitched tinnitus or very loud Blu-Ray drives, and was worried that this was a general problem of PS3. My son the 500GB variant has ordered and my give neither his PS3 still a tone of itself. Thus, I say simply that loud noises do not affect all PS3 and can only recommend to exchange such noisemakers at Amazon for defect. The Blu-Ray drives in both our PS3s are indeed heard - but when a movie or game is running can no longer hear.

Also lack of build quality, I can not confirm - the drive lid slides when pressure is applied to "Eject" and then closed manually. That does not do now, however, 50 times in a row, but in film or game changing. I'm sure the PS3 is so easily during their "lifetime" survive.

In VOD, or media playback without Blu-Ray use the way you hear nothing. Also, the fan does not bother me in the least.

I run the PS3 on a 3D projector and the sound comes from all corners by 5.1 and can only say: WOW! - A visual and acoustic feast for the senses. Never before was so much fun I gamble. Originally I wanted to use only yes LOVEFiLM and max cathedrals, but now I play whenever possible and fly in 3D with 5 meters screen size a wipeout slider or walk in the 3D depth of Helghan. Just great!

My conclusion and tips for 170 I did everything right and look forward to every PS3 session.

Update on 08.01.2012 - now I'm playing in parallel: Uncharted3, Killzone2, Killzone3, resistance2, Dead Space, The Darkness2 and Just Cause2 + WipeOutHD. I still have 6.5 GB free.
