Syphon_Filter Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 (edited) I just got my copy and it ask to install 8 GB. Its kind weird though since they are using blu ray and I don't like it http://youtu.be/SElAYyK-0LY Edited September 16, 2013 by Syphon_Filter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mio Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 8486mb. I started the install at approx 10:43am. It is 10:51am right now and just passed the 4GB Mark, so a 15-20 minute install by my calculations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parker Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Most big games on the PS3 need to have a mandatory install because Blu-Ray is slower than DVD so in order to have decent load times you have to have an install. The 360 version comes with a second disc and you have to install that before you can play the game, I believe. I don't know how big that second disc is though.

ANTIOX_ Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 I remember gran turismo 5 having a 10 gig install although it wasn't mandatory. Given the depth of gta5 I'm not surprised in the slightest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aquaslimfatboy Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Done... Took about 22 minutes maybe more. The Music is damn right sensual. Are you ready Vinewood? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syphon_Filter Posted September 17, 2013 Author Share Posted September 17, 2013 Yeah, guys and I hope never to see any games need to be installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnforgedSavagery Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 (edited) How could you know expect this? It installed within 10 minutes or so but if it's the size you're concerned about hard drive wise then uninstall a game or two as I'm sure you'll be busy with this for quite some time, in the meantime have fun I'm absolutely loving it! sigh. I second that, *sigh*. Edited September 17, 2013 by UnforgedSavagery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savageamusement Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Installing now and i dont care how long it takes. This game will be hard drive space well spent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VetoShizuko Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 dang i have to go to work so i hope it downloads fully and ugh >.< installing is just more waiting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reversj Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 They announced the 8GB install weeks, if not months ago so you could have seen it coming. Also its not too surprising considering the size/amount of detail in the game. The install took 10-15 mins here. THIS GAME IS AMAZING Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
