Not really
How big are the standard games, not the DVD9 ones. As I might just install a small hdd for a while say 20gb?

cant atm... I got to make myself a new pc and then sell a load of stuff, i mean like hundreeds of things... I got like 10,000 floppy discs!!!! so if u want a few give me a shout, lol...

But after I've done my new pc, sold a few things maybe I will get a 120gb hdd for the ps2. Or maybe use my current 80gb (in pc) and then 120gb on my pc lol, dunno yet. As I want 2x 80gb for my pc, nothing bigger.
