Hey - turns out IRC is out and something a little more modern has taken it's place... A little thing called Discord!

Oh? Then how did people use the broadband adapter before FFXI was released (which is when the hdd was released)?Menace said:But I think you need the HDD to use the broadband adapter
EDIT: sneez, I don't know how long you've had that avatar but that's one of the greatest things I've ever seen

Most games will probably need some place to cache data of any kind to be effective online, such as other player skins etc, I have no doubt that you know how that works, prolly better than me
I dunno what games people played before FFXI, but they probably weren't games with costum skins etc...
Err I think people are mixing things up here.
The broadband adaptor adds support for the HDD, that's all I said, I didn't say you _needed_ the bb adaptor to have a hdd in the ps2.
You do however need a proper interface if you want to add a hdd to the ps2. The broadband adaptor is ideal since it obviously allows networking too. You can easily fit a std 3.5" hd with the bb adaptor (altho i think the size is limited to 160GB).
The PS2 HDD is something completely different though, and should not get confused with the BB Adaptor+HDD support.

Menace, as I said, there are only two games so far that support the HDD and I seriously doubt that number will increase significantly. And how would custom content be created? Are you going to make new skins with a control pad? Sony doesn't really have a serious online presence like Microsoft does with Xbox Live so I really can't see downloadable content from them until the PS3.

Oh, okay. Thx for clearing that up, that makes more sense.
