On average how much games can an ps3 80 gig hold?

Answer 1

It depends greatly if you are only using Game downloads instead of PS3 game Discs that still need the Disc to play the game since the whole game file is not downloaded into your PS3. It also matters if you are online and receiving Game updates because they also take up space since updates can not be written into the Game Discs as the PS3 does not change the data on the original discs and only holds the information on your harddrive. Because of the variables there is not an average number of games it can hold, but there are few questions about hold to make more room for additional games on even smaller harddrives. The main thing is that the PS3 does not download and keep the harddrive filled with the complete games or it would be unable to hold a large number which it can.

Currently my 320 GB PS3 is 70-80 filled with about 80 downloaded games, photos, videos, huge Playstation Home file and it uses about 220 GB of the 298 GB available on a 320 GB PS3. Some games have 14 GB of memory usage so it will depend on a game file size just how many can fit in 80 GB
