The bigger the better. And we know it's not 16GB due to a crappy port *looks at TFU*

That doesn't mean anything. AvP, GTA4, ME2, were just as big but they weren't massive games. And by the way, 8GB is the actual game size, the other 8GB is for bonus content.

True. AVP was huge and a short game for its size. Nonetheless, I expect The Witcher 2 to be a huge game.

Because they were console ports. Look at the force unleashed - 15GB installation, 20GB installed.

High res textures confirmed?

... but who doubted that anyway.

Unlike DA2 shipping at 5 GB, later on releasing a 2Gb "high res" textures.Disgusting 360 port.

You can tell very little about a game from the file size, some use compression, some don't.

so we can assume a year after its release they will release a patch that fixes all the graphical problems, programing problems...etc and it will weigh in installed at like 24 gigs?

EE had tons of different language voices. I only installed English and Polish (and German I think). If you just do recommended install, you install every language.

I regret pre-purchasing the steam version now. No way I can download 16GB in any kind of reasonable time frame.

Man, Crysis Warhead is only 5.64GB, so that means TW2 is going to be 2.84 times better looking!* :o

*Seriously, I thought we had all figured out that install/game size was meaningless back in 07 when people kept trying to use "teh PS3 games are 40+GB, so they must be better looking/longer than ~6.8GB 360 games!" line.

The install size is irrelevent in terms of what we can expect the game to be like. The important thing is that they focused on releasing the PC version first and then eventually porting the game/butchering it for consoles. Wish Crytek had done what they are doing.

maybe not better looking, but it could still mean it is a big game. Of course, a lot of those spaces in TW2 will be foreign languages dubs I think.
