New HDD for PS3?

PS3

With the news of Microsoft's 120GB Xbox 360 abound, Sony have hinted at the possibility of a new version of the PlayStation 3 with a larger capacity hard-drive onboard.

Speaking to GamesIndustry.biz, a Sony spokesperson has commented that "For users who vigorously store [games and other entertainment content] in the PS3, 20GB is probably going to be to small," as well as "Even 60GB may not be big enough eventually."

He also added that you wouldn't need to completely overhaul your system to get your hands on the larger HDD, should it appear sometime in the future.

A larger capacity HDD does not seem at all impossible or unlikely. With the recent news that Sony has terminated the 20GB version in North America, it seems that users seem to prefer the larger capacity version. Couple in the news of the new Xbox 360 and, well...

More as we have it.
