E3 2013: PlayStation 4 to include a 500 GB hard drive

4.7
Along with the $59 price listing for the DualShock 4 and PlayStation Eye accessories, a Sony Japan press release noted that the PlayStation 4 will include a 500 GB hard drive.

When looking back at our initial specs comparison between the Xbox One and PS4, the latter system's storage capacity was one of the points that was had yet to be revealed when the system was announced in February. Another big detail missing in February was the system's $399 price, which was announced during Sony's E3 press conference Monday.

Converge So does this mean we have to pay an extra $59 for a controller? Could some one clarify this?


I believe if you want an additional controller you have to buy it for $59. When you buy the console you get a controller already, free of charge.

I would need this. On my Xbox 360 I have installed so many games on it that I only have like 6GB left and I have the 320GB model Xbox 360. If I get the PS4 I will more and likely be storing games on my HDD, so this would be prefect for me.

Gossip So much memory for? He looks miserable holding it too lol


One layer on a Blu-ray disc(PS3 Games) can hold approximately 25GBs of data, with these new games it will probably be dual layer so games will be approximately be 50GBs which is only 10 Games that can be stored to the HHD. I think you have to store games on the HHD but unsure about that.


No, they already said at E3 that these are disc-based games only and will be ran off the disc.
