Currently Being ModeratedRe: Why not Modern Warfare 3 installing in PS3 Hard Drive?
The information I have found so far points to Sony needing to give stamp of approval to the developer for hard disk drive install of game. For example new game from ID software called Rage will have an 8GB install on the PS3. The dude from ID gave an interview commending Sony for their co operation on this.
Why should Sony give their approval to Activision and their development studio's like Treyarch and IW?
This whole group is Microsoft orientated and believe me agreements are in place that guarantee exclusive rights for early DLC and to make the game better on the XBOX 360.

I just finished reading that article about Rage as well .... I emailed Sony way back asking about a Call of Duty hard drive install and they told me that it was up to Activision not them. Seems everyone is passing the buck on this issue.
Its in Sonys best interest to have this as an option because it would cut down on drive failures and add to their reputation of having the most reliable console.

Amazing got GT5 keeps my PS3 running cool. My ps3 is hotter than a bicycle in Harlem if I don't play from HDD. Anyway, what's wrong with burning our Blu-Ray drives out?

While I do think that is certainly one of the more likely reasons it's another case of educated guesswork - this isn't a criticism aimed at you, but at the developers for their lack of forthrightness on the issue.
Previous CoD games are now hacked to pieces on PS3 thanks both to the jailbreaking and IW/Treyarch's over-reliance on Sony's console to provide security. I think it's a little late to start using that as an excuse to not give us an install. They'll simply have to raise their game as they had to with the Xbox console, aye?

I knew I'd find a comment from you on this matter Rob. I remember your conversation with Vahn on this issue. Didn't he say that installing it wouldn't increase load times. Then you brought up the issue of drive wear and tear..that's what peaked his interest I do believe

We got the ported version. Treyarch treated the PS3 version like trash.
