Shots of the new PS3 game packs

December 31st, 1969

Ooooh, PS3 game packs! So here's the deal: those lucky folks over at IGN finally got a hold of their first PS3 games (Tiger Woods PGA Tour 07 and Madden NFL 07, as you can see). Seeing as how they're nice guys, they decided to take some shots and spread the PS3 love. Now, since we weren't sent any game packs (boohoo for us), we're just gonna get their pictures and post them here for all of you guys out there who want a glimpse at how the new cases stand up to the older game cases for other Sony consoles.

Frankly, we were rooting for black cases like the PS2's, but surprisingly, the clear ones are starting to grow on us. They look much more durable than the PS2 and PSP game cases, actually. The only beef we have with it is that it's gonna look dirtier a lot faster because of the clear plastic. Still, we think that overall the new game cases look pretty snazzy, so why don't you guys take a gander at the shots below and see for yourselves? Don't hesitate to leave a comment.

Ridge Racer 7 can be installed on PS3 HDD

December 31st, 1969

Ridge Racer 7


Everybody knows that ridiculously long load times can really sour up an otherwise great game, and that's why we love hard drives. If you can install a game onto it, load times get cut. Well, PS3 fans, guess what? You can do that for Ridge Racer 7.

Yep, Ridge Racer 7 can be installed on to the PS3's hard drive. It's not necessary in order to play the game and enjoy all those B-E-A-yootiful cars whooshing past, though. Instead, it's just a nifty little option that the developers decided to include so that the load times wouldn't get in the way of all the racing (which actually makes us wonder what the loading times would be if you don't install the game).

The full version of the game reportedly weighs in at 5GB, but even on the PS3's 20GB HDD that wouldn't pose much of a problem, unless you're also going to be installing a game like Resistance or Oblivion. Hey, you can even install both Ridge Racer 7 and Genji 2 on your PS3 hard drive and revel in all the Kaz and giant crab goodness. Just don't forget to attack the weak point for massive damage.
