IAmFlownominal Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 i just finished yakuza 4 and was so happy to get my 22 gigs back. ...then i bought this on sale. WoW. that's 70 gigs to install. looks like this one goes on the back burner. Yeah..... I cleared off Bioshock 2 and Assassin's Creed Liberation HD and had like 22 gigs open. Bought game saw how much space it was, went back and cleared another 40 gigs from my Game Utilities on things I'm not going to revisit. Had 60+ gigs but still got the "not enough free space message" so wtf. This cant be right so I trouble shoot, delete more, restart system, etc. Screw it, switch to my girlfriends newer, emptier system and start downloading..... Here's where it gets funnier. Start download 35 GB around 630pm, it finishes it's morphine drip some time after the sun came after my Girlfriend left for work at 6am. I wake up at 1030am today and go to install it. Still not installed before I leave for work at 11:45. Get home at like 830pm and fire it up, GAME ON!!!!...... No just kidding, needs an update. it's now 1030 at night, on day 2 and I'm still only 5/9 the way through the updates. Yeah, 9 updates. All huge. I'm not playing this till after work tomorrow afternoon, am I? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IAmFlownominal Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Usually I agree 100%, except $8 was extremely appealing. And It's the only GoW game I didn't play yet. Not that that $8 is all too enjoyable right now. at update 6 of 9 now. 907MB, 39 percent to go before installation. 55% for total update completion.

janne-da-arc24 Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Lol, thanks. It's been out how long? I just keep telling myself "I waited this long so sack up." Just hope something like a power outage happens when you are installing updates so you have to do it all over again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IAmFlownominal Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Just hope something like a power outage happens when you are installing updates so you have to do it all over again D: dear god man the universe heard you! And it doesn't need any fresh ideas! Actually it just hit a speed spurt after everyone else stopped using the bandwidth on Hulu and Netflix so It's installing the last part now. Still... Gotta work at 7am (in 6 hours) so I'm calling it a night........ Maybe after I see if there are no other surprises, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IAmFlownominal Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Total recorded play time when I got my plat was under 11 hours. (not counting deaths) Not very good for how long it took to start playing. That said, it did look GORGEOUS. Very much worth it based on quality of visuals.

Pike27 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 It was a surprise for me too. I had to delete about 5 games so I could download this one. Fortunately, they were all completed by then Now that I have gotten this platinum, I may exclude it. It hurts me to do so, but if needed I will have to do so.

I'm still waiting lol on 4/9 ...guess I'll finally see this game tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshtimusPrime Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Yeah, I bought this on the Store when it was on sale last year. My PS3 turned on in the night to download it and was still on when I woke up for work. Wasn't even halfway done. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stpatty Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Started my download an hour ago. At 6%. The future is digital, remember! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anewlife2010 Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 (edited) Do you still need a online pass? I may just pick this up rather then download it. I dont feel like leaving my PS3 on until its done. Edited August 9, 2015 by Anewlife2010 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you do still need it but all digital games that need an Online Pass, will have it pre-installed with the game . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well damn, I can get a copy down the street for like 10 bucks used. Maybe I just try and download it then but my PS3 takes forever to download games. Thanks for the in for Terminator.

You could try to download the online pass (mine installed before the rest of the game started downloading) then see if it works with the disc version.

NowEat05 Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Took me around 4 hours to download and what seems like just as long to install... why is this game so large? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kfree7 Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 This is one of the main reasons I prefer the discs Since we just have 160GB PS3, we prefer to go with discs as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Started the download at around 5pm EST and have not turned the PS3 off... still not playing the game. Finally installed the game just to get hit with another 9 update downloads totaling over 3GBs.
