Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare (PS4/3, One/360, PC)

Definitely. Not buying this game, but stuff like Titan Fall, BF4, etc. does the same thing. My point is that there's no way they use the space responsively (Same with EA) on a platform that does the bulk of it's business via downloads.

Dead Rising 3 was another bullshit game with it's 40+GB download on Steam. Unlike the other big shooters, most retailers aren't gonna sell a PC copy of that in stores.

Xbox 360 games were 9 gigs. Now everything is on Blu-Ray. Of course the games will be larger.

So now we are bitching that games are too big? Ok cool.

Titanfall definitely does not make good use of its space. A good portion of its 48gb is uncompressed audio files (35gb, to be precise). That's already inefficient, but what makes it worse is that that includes seven spoken languages - they could easily have let people select which languages to install rather than forcing them all.

Most XBOX 360 games are actually not that big. The disc images are huge because they're all padded with copy protection, but if you look at the rips for JTAG modded systems, they're often less than 5GB.

Same goes for FFXIII, which doubled in size because of no voice install selection. Options are good for everyone.
