Unlike the Xbox 360, only certain games on the PlayStation 3, such as 'Resistance 3' and 'Skyrim,' allow you to install game data on the system. In most cases, these installs are mandatory and occur the first time you insert the game; in other cases, they occur on the game's main menu or Options screen, depending on the game. Install sizes are typically 2GB to 6GB worth of data; in time, your PS3's hard drive can fill to capacity on just installed games.
