E3 2013: PlayStation 4 to include a 500 GB hard drive

4.7
Along with the $59 price listing for the DualShock 4 and PlayStation Eye accessories, a Sony Japan press release noted that the PlayStation 4 will include a 500 GB hard drive.

When looking back at our initial specs comparison between the Xbox One and PS4, the latter system's storage capacity was one of the points that was had yet to be revealed when the system was announced in February. Another big detail missing in February was the system's $399 price, which was announced during Sony's E3 press conference Monday.

slapshot101 This is good, a huge amount of space, and the fact that we don't have to install our games to play them will make this 500GB go even farther.


I thought you had to download your games onto the hard drive on the PS4 and Xbox One?


I don't recall Sony stating it as a requirement, but I know that Microsoft did which is awful.

Converge So does this mean we have to pay an extra $59 for a controller? Could some one clarify this?


I believe if you want an additional controller you have to buy it for $59. When you buy the console you get a controller already, free of charge.


Alright thanks man, I was looking at the bundles on gamestop to see which one I want and I was getting confused :)
