X1 games and install sizes

Anyone want to add me?

Gamertag is YvonnStrahovski

I'm hoping...I can replace the missing e in yvonnestrahovski
 
The new generation leads to bigger games, and
Installation is not that big of an issue - on disk-versions, I think.
A modern bluray-drive wich is in next-gen consoles are much faster than what were in PS3, and atleast on PS4 it streams from disks to harddrive while you play - and I think someone in Microsoft said somewhere that they were also doing that. :)
So you'll not have half hour installs this generation from disks.

Are the modern drives the same as dvd read speeds?
 
Looks like I'm looking at only 45GB being used at launch, 79GB if I decide to get Ryse.

Also, I'm assuming the KI size is for the full version? If you just get the free version it'd be smaller?

The killer instinct one will just be for the basic, it depends if you buy each character and they come as a say 200mb file or a 108kb unlock from that game. At the moment no one knows.
 
what? no once its downloaded its ready to go, its not like a pc and its not also just hanging in your hdd.

I'm pretty sure all of these download sizes are smaller than the size reported on the back of the game discs. By gigabytes. I'll see if I can find those pics, but someone had pics of the back of Forza and Ryse, and the sizes were larger than what's been reported in this thread.

I'm kind of presuming that the 2.3 GB is the whole game with content locked before you buy it. Either way, it's already planned on getting bigger. Wouldn't be surprised to see it reach 10GB if they do update beyond content, like improving visuals, online stuff, audio, etc.

What games are you getting??

That seems rather "small"
