Several users have reported success in managing to upgrade their PS3 hard-drives. There are several reports of amateur electronics enthusiasts swapping out the 20GB and 60GB drive with higher-capacity version, all of which were recognised and accepted by the PlayStation 3's OS.
The most remarkable point to this is not that something written in a manual actually does work - although that is remarkable in itself - but how rapidly and successfully it can be made to happen.
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.
"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."
Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.
Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.

Hackers could put a Linux virus on the Hard Drive, upload to an Email, and sent it to a buddy, and brick the console.
I can't believe how open PS3 is.
... now I know where to get a replacement fan for my hovercraft...
I wish 360 went this route.
Think of the modders and now you will have to worry about viruses glad MS went the way they did
