Help help help? please playstation 3?

Question

I got a 80g ps3 a few days ago and on sytem information it says that it has 57g out of 74g what the **** i have installed hardly anything and it should start of at 80g

Answer 1

yea, thats right, in 80GB system  74GB is available for you, 6 GB is used by PS3 for its files and swapping and other complex stuff and you ur game used 7 GB, dont worry, its 80GB alright but PS3 also needs some Hard disk space for itself.

The 20GB XBOX 360 shows you only 13.9GB hard disk.

SO i think you should not worry about it.

Answer 2

all the patches, updates, and settings.

besides, you thought they had it all set up and running, and still have exactly 80g left?

trust me, 57 is more than youll need

Answer 3

When you setup your  PS3 the first time you get it they install things. If you use the internet, they install a patch etc. Also, if you got the PS3 a long time ago all the new firmware upgrades take space. Game saves also take up quite a bit of space. 57g is still a lot though don't worry about that. Nothing ever comes full with the amount of gigabytes it says it does, computers, hard drives, etc. They're always being used for something!

Answer 4

i think its because it used or preinstalled stuff
