I believe in a universe that doesn't care, and people that do.



That pose really makes me think I'm looking at some kinda fetish instead of a cosplay.

This is a pretty good video game costume

OK, closing in on like the 2/3rds mark of Yakuza 2 (well it depends how much more screwing around I do with side missions and stuff; surprisingly addictive) and I think I'm just gonna skip straight to Yakuza 4 after I'm done.

Maybe I'll swing back around to 3 later.

Yakuza 0 is coming out in January. That's the first PS4 one unless they are on PSNow

I'm super surprised, but Battlefield 1 is loving great. The UI has some issues, and the party system leaves a bunch to be desired, but the core gameplay is real fun and not THAT buggy. It's the least :dice: game in a while I think. I'll probably pick up Civ VI next month sometime, but I'm not sure with Dishonored 2 and Pokemans coming out.

I think Elder Scrolls Online is still the record holder with 80gb and it came out in 2014.

We're three years into the console generation where bluray storage sizes are the norm, almost every major AAA game has been at least 40 gigs for awhile now. D44M is also like 70 gigs and even Shadow of Mordor was about 50 gigs.

I think they said the new CoD is 130GB but it's including the Modern Warfare remaster

Huge file sizes are why I don't really like buying console games digitally, I dunno how PC people deal with it

Doesn't normally bother me because I have unlimited fibre and a 2TB drive, but I'd probably balk at 130GB for two games on my PS4 even so.

PC people deal with it by not having god-awful download speeds. It's sad when you have 150 mb/s download speed and a full game on PSN still takes 4-5 hours to download.

I get around 6-8MB/sec on PS4, it's not as fast as my PC but it's not too bad either.

They probably meant how do they deal with data caps, not time invested.

So glad i dont have one

Do we know if those giant download sizes for Gears and COD are just space on disk, or the actual amount of data being transferred? I'm pretty sure that most of these game downloads come in compressed, so you end up actually downloading less than the size of the game.

You can check actual download sizes on Steam with this: https://steamdb.info/app/209160/depots/ You just have to replace the app id with a game you're interested in.

Gears isn't on Steam though and CoD isn't released yet so it's not possible to see data for them at this moment.
