Windows will do it, just right click on the drive in explorer and select format. It puzzles me as to why fat32 though

So it'll play on my PS3 and NTFS doesnt work on it. I dont think Windows can go as big as 1tb can it? I thought I read that it cant go bigger than 32gb, thats why I wanted a third party software.

Windows 2000 and later will only format FAT32 up to 32GB. If you need to format a bigger partition then you have to use something like fat32format.
