Weekend Discussion

A new chatty for the weekend has arrived! Please use the appropriate facilities for conversation and discussion while I slip out to play more Skate 2 and Left 4 Dead.

By the way, Steve was right. Solid state drives are one of the most amazing upgrades you can put in a PC. So zippy, so fast ...but now every other machine feels super slow :(

Chris Faylor was previously a games journalist creating content at Shacknews.

    You can always send me these 'other machines', Faylor.

      I'm going to wait for the Drives to be about $1 a GB before I buy them. I remember using this rule when I was buying HDD's a long as time ago.

        Agreed. I wonder if they will ever wind up in gaming consoles.

          I'm betting they will in the next generation. It would probably be the first thing either Sony or MS will announce, since it will sound more next generation and also I'm sure they'll be cheap bu 2012 or so when the next gen starts.

          Thinking about it now, I wonder what would happen if I stick a SSD 2.5" drive into the PS3.
