Gran Turismo 5 Has Optional 10GB Install

Im all for it, if it makes this game run smooth as butter! Wow I can't wait for this game to FINALLY come out.

Given Gran Turismo's history, this has to be worth it, but I agree, it's a huge chunk for any hard drive less than 100GB. Time to tidy up the ol' 60GB, I guess.

Suddenly thrilled I upgraded to the 120 Slim a few months back. Thank God. This might've been pushing it with my 40, but I'll have plenty of room now.

Mine's 80 so shouldn't be too bad, however I might end up tight on space after GT5. I think I've got 20ish left but not checked for a while.

Fine by me! I installed a 640GB HDD a few months back for my 40GB. Best $80 I've spent in gaming!

Haha...just checking this and seeing how much space I have on my 60 GB just showed me the Madden '10 Game data (not the save files) is taking up two gigs by itself! Probably the AFL/Ultimate Team stuff causing it to get so big. Seeing as I sold it a few months ago I don't see much harm in getting rid of that one!

This won't be as big a problem as I thought....I can just delete the game installs (again, not save files) to free up space without losing saved games. Star Ocean, Valkyria Chronicles, Metal Gear Sold 4 and MLB '10 the Show all have big installs.

No way I'm deleting that last one even for a short time, though!

At this point, I'm definitely choosing the 10GB option, even if it means eventually upgrading my 120GB HDD to a 500GB one down the road. Something tells me that all the space put aside will be well worth it, although I may just have to wait for a thread or forum post detailing the benefits. If the benefits are negligible, for example, I'm probably just going to stick with the smaller install option.

I love my 500 GB HDD. Atleast I will love it till we start having 50GB installs next year lol.
