Anyone who tells you size doesn’t matter obvious has a very small… mind. Everyone knows bigger is better and I speak entirely from experience of being 6’5” and the size of a small outhouse.
Final Fantasy XIII held the honour of being ‘the biggest thing ever’ on PlayStation 3, nicely filling over two thirds of a Blu-ray with 37.6 GB of content. News reaches us that Killzone 3 has trumped the Square Enix title by 3.9 GB of data, rocking in at a stupendous 41.5GB. In comparison, Killzone 2 barely scratched the surface of a Blu-ray disc with a measly 12 GB of data on the disc.
Suprisingly the game will not require a gargantuan install to your hard drive, in fact Just Push Start report that the game will have no install whatsoever. Top marks Guerrilla!

One word: damn!
Wonder what the loading times will be?

Impressive that it has no install,I hope its runs as smoothly as the uncharted games. Being stuck in front of a loading screen for ages isn’t fun

holy crap, well done GG for that. Stick that in your pipe and smoke it pirates.

That is impressive, but how much of that is for the 3D display?

I Cant wait to play this! wouldnt bother me if it did have a massive install, it would pro-long the excitement!
SpikeyMikey23

Epic!
But wasn’t MGS4 the biggest to be released on PS3.
Konami said the blu-ray was to small for MGS4.
I also remember LBP 1 being 40gb.
I might be mistaken since I read these news along time ago.

MGS4 turned out to be 32 gig in the end.

Probably so big because some of the same data has been replicated a few times on the disc to reduce seek times (which would also explain why there is no install). Impressive nonetheless

Wow, you are probably right, clever person. :D

Very clever indeed!

It’s large then. No doubts it’ll be all kinds of super and I’m looking forward to renting this for the SP.

Dayum!

This looks awesome. It’s nice there isn’t an install, but I’m not bothered since I upgraded my hdd recently.

An optional install, now that would probably suit everyone. Or not, as many would think of it as mandatory for the experience.
