I installed an SSD before downloading, so I don't know what it would have been like on my original 60GB, but there isn't a great deal of pop in. Sure it's there, but nowhere near as bad as that 360 comparison video (the one that compares HDD full installation vs disc), shame the SSD doesn't help the framerate though
edit: PS3 is a day 1 Japanese phat, and god it has gotten noisy, thinking about moving it to another room and using a HDMI extender.
