Can someone explain why TTT2 requires a 7.5 gig install? I just don't understand this at all.

That's HUGE! I had enough room for a few PSN games but now I'm forced into buying a new HDD. This sucks.
7.5 gigs for a fighting game? How?

You think that's huge? Try about 40GB for the entire Uncharted series as a download.

That's big. But if you're downloading then you should be expecting to give up a ton of room. I bought the disc.

I believe that one of the reasons might be because of the several characters.

The loading times aren't what I'd call quick either. Namco just suck at PS3.

The "future" would have been Sony making a fast enough BluRay drive to not require an installation for it to be fast enough. The Hard Drive should help the overall experience, not make it a drag with required installations. These are consoles, not PCs.

Hopefully the WiiU version doesn't require such nonsense.

I could only imagine how much more expensive that would have made the system. Nowadays it's not much of an issue but back then it was pretty pricy.
