Console gamers are slaves of their tiny hard drive space

Who said anything about load times? the topic was "slaves to tiny HDD space"

Post #87 mentions speed and shows a video of load times (PS4 trash load times, very bad). You replied to him shortly after that in #92.

Be more clear next time.

lol

Hmm, ok did not read that.

But the main Org. post was about tiny HDD spaces which are as you know, bonkers and not true.

The issue, for me anyway, is that certain games are bloated beyond belief. Witcher 3 with all dlcs, 60 gigs.

Assassins Creed Origins with dlcs, 70 gigs.

Deus Ex Mankind Divided with dlcs... damn near 80 gigs.

Just... wtf.

Doom is up there too. Most of the big name titles are withing that same ballpark, or only 10 gigs or so less.

Yeah, because 2 8MB memory cards on my PS2 is insignificant storage space for game saves. I've got eleven saves and not even filled up a single one, not even half of one.

Actually, My PS4 has about 45 games saved on her 2 TB external hard drive and still has plenty of room to go. I'll also buy a 2 TB External hard drive for my Xbox one when I buy it, so that'll at 4 TB between the 2 consoles, plus the 500 GB hard drive with each, minus the difference between the actual hard drive space. (Since I'm aiming to buy a used, stock Xbox One rather than the S or X variants, it'll have a 500 GB hard drive.)

My PC has 4 TB total of hard drive space split between 2 hard drives. My Steam Hard Drive has 2 TB, and while I do have some non-steam games on my 2 TB OS Hard drive, most of it's storage space goes for documents, videos, music, and other computer stuff that's non-gaming.

So between these hard drives I'll have 6 TB worth of storage space meant for gaming, split between three hard drives each consisting of 2 TB each.

That doesn't include the 16 MB of memory card space split between 2 memory cards for my PS2, my 320 GB hard drive for the PS3, my 250 GB hard drive for my Xbox 360, my 32 GB worth of SD card storage for my 2 3DS systems splits across 2 SD cards of 16 GB each, one per system.

This also doesn't include my 40 GB hard drive for my windows Millennium PC I got for free that still worked perfectly even though the owners had left it out in a truck trailer during a rainstorm intent on sending it to the dumpster.

@that_old_guy: well you are old so maybe.

@stereointegrity: I STILL GOT SOME FIGHT LEFT IN ME!!!!

I'm one of those who invested in extra HDD space for my console.

I also had to do it for my PC and so did you too apparently, so I guess your point is invalid and everyone's a slave to HDD space! Who da thunk?

Why so triggered?

So, it's fine to wait for a game to get patched on console but not to get released on PC?

Where did I say that, my sweet stalker?

1+1 = 2

Again, where did I say there was a problem waiting for a game on PC, my sweet stalker?

Going around everywhere shouting pc beggar race seems to indicate this

I really only do hard-copy for my consoles, so I have no issues with space. If you go all-digital, then 1tb would definitely fill up in no time.

Yes, because PC gamers beg for PS4 and Nintendo exclusive games, not third parties.

Don't be dense.

2TB has to be the norm now these games are getting bigger and bigger. Interesting to see what the default systems are when they are announced.

Its ok to cry, I mean you're sad that the master race got a game first that you so wanted to play, and thus leaving you a laster race guy :(

Thankfully I have laptop drives just hanging out and external cases I can buy.

@ivangrozny said: Paired with my ultra fast 500GB SSD I can install almost all my Steam games now. Oh yeah

My Pro has a 1TB drive, so if it can only hold 4 games, then your 8TB can only hold 32 games, according to your
"logic". If your 8TB drive and your 500GB SSD (that can hold only 1 game? lol) can hold almost your entire Steam library, then you have a tiny Steam library. Sounds like you're not a PC gamer.

Ive had a a 2 tb external for my ps4, i dont think I'll ever fill it

@recloud should really stop...lmao. And tries to call people "retarted" yet his spelling is atrocious...

@dagubot: youre all so triggered lmao

@recloud: That's you're response when you know you don't have shit to say...lmfao.

@dagubot: why would i say something to you? You being triggered is enough to me lol

Yup, classic reclown calling triggered everywhere when he doesn't have anything left

@MonsieurX: aww are you going tô cry? Show me on the doll where i hurt you, my Stalker.

Like a broken record, must have been hit hard

You are a fool.

Since your argument is based on PS4 you should know that speed has barely any difference,all PS4 come with a sata drive 5800 rpm,all games are made for that standard,so using a faster drive in most cases what it does is load a little faster in some cases is just the same.

The drive is 7200rpm which is an improvement over the PS4 one since the PS4 is the console you are crying about fake hermit,you most know that the change is not huge,and since your argument was STORAGE not once you mention speed i say you are just grasping the PS4 can use whatever USB drive you slap on it since you got prove wrong you change the argument to speed.

Your thread is call ""Console Games are slave to their tiny hard drives"" and not console games are slaves to their slow hard drives i have to say that your thread completely backfire...Hahahahaahaa

And if you can't open a PS4 and change a HDD you are a complete and utter incompetent moron. :)

Nice backfiring thread..lol

Your thread is not about speed is about SIZE of the console drives which you FALSELY claim console gamer are stock with tiny hard drives,and falsely claim your PS4 hold only 4 games,and falsely claim that changing a drive inside the PS4 was a hassle..Hahahahaaa

You were owned.

but but but i am a moron and is to hard to slide open the PS4 lid..lol

@MonsieurX: I'm sorry I hurt your feelings, stalker, I'll be more careful next time.

That's some nice reflection

5 TB on the Xbox One X with over 3TB in games disagrees.

@MonsieurX: I see youre still crying, stalker.

This must be a troll post.

HD space on PS4 is an issue, due to the console having so many brill games.

On Xbone, I've not heard anyone even getting ther HD full, as the console only has four games for it!

First of all, kiddo, what a meltdown. Even calling you yourself a moron. You need more jesus in your life, too much aggression.

Secondly, I did kinda mention speed in my OP as well:

External SSD are too expensive to waste them on a console and regular USB3 external hard drives are slower than regular internal SATA3 drives.

Title is just to call attention. I can not physically mention everything in the title, but according to you, if it's not there it doesn't count then as an argument.

Thirdly, I never said I can't replace an internal driver in my PS4, i said is too much of a hassle. Reading comprehension problems? It's not just unscrewing one screw, it also requires a usb stick for cloning OS.

But my main reason, i just do not want to invest into slow hard drives for original PS4. Sata2 of PS4 will slowdown anything good I put in there.

There is no meltdown lemming..

No you didn't mention speed you mention SSD which you also lie about and claimed latter on the PS4 didn't support..Hahahaa

You don't even know what you are talking about so yeah my PS4 can take a 10TB HDD and since speed make basically no difference with the PS4 for the purpose of killing your thread yeah we just did..

Nice backfiring thread.. lol

What is the next excuse price?

Hahahaaha

I am not a psychologist, but something tells me you have some issues with lemmings. Try some therapy, amigo. Perhaps meditation. Yoga. There is a lot of help out there.

Telling me I don't know what I am talking about, meanwhile saying PS4 can take a 10T HDD. That's funny. Well, if you do a bit of research, my ignorant friend, you would know that 2.5-inch HDD can only go up to 5TB rtn and are only 5400RPM.

And yes, they are shit and costly. Price is not an excuse, it's a factor. Many things on consoles are not financially wise. The HDD that I posted is the most cost/performance effective, which consoles do not have. A FACT. Even going SSD on consoles is less cost-performance effective.

Oh and if you check my OP again, I did mention speeds

and regular USB3 external hard drives are slower than regular internal SATA3 drives.

@ivangrozny: This thread failed and backfired hard.

Not only this is a bad troll post but it must be the stupidest troll post of the month.

I am not a psychologist either and isn't hard for me to see that you are a lemming a sony hater who hides on PC to attack consoles for stupid crap like HDD,but then only mention 1 console which actually is the one which allow you to not only change without voiding your warranty then internal HDD but also support external hdd..

Hahahaaa

You see i have been long here to know how to spot a lemming,specially those who pretend to attack all consoles but only attack 1.

You are an idiot the PS4 allows for USB storage so yeah if you hook a 10TB HDD it work fool,see you simply know shit.

The HDD that you posted mean total shit,it cost as much as a damn PS4,when you can slap and 8TB one for $140.

And since speed isn't a problem NyaDC,you can slap one of those on the PS4 and pay less than half of what you pay for yours..lol

The only thing you say about speed is comparing 3.0 USB vs sata3 again your whole thread is about space so i could care less about your tears you were owned and my PS4 can get 8TB for $140 lol and install a hell of allow of games..lol

500GB is perfectly adequate for my needs.

Little known fact; you can delete games that you're not playing to free up space.

Little known fact #2: You can re-download games.

^^^

I have a 2TB Xbox One S, with about 50 games ranging from less than 1GB to like 80GB or whatever Halo 5 is. I still have around 40% of the space still available.

You can attach an external hard drive to consoles. I have a 4TB on my PS4.... giving me 5TB. I have more games then anyone I know in real life or online friends and still have over half my space left.
