Download size?

[Papa John]

It says in the FAQ that the game size will be around 33GB, but is that also the download size or will it be compressed and then unpacked upon completion?

[Dont Worry]

i think the devs will stream the game tonight, you might wanna ask them this questions while they're streaming on Twitch.tv

prolly will be 33 gigs "nextgen" console games are just gonna get bigger with blueray no more need to compress files now.

This is true

The game itself is 30GB and the extra DLC wrack it up for a total of 33GB

It may come down in size after package file compression, but the absolute worst case (if it doesn't compress well) will be around 33GB.

We hope to pre-load few days before launch :)

Wow games are getting big, getting harder and harder to download in Australia, anyway I assume with steam's file compression it should shoot down in size, I mean I have seen a 1GB download on steam turn into 6GB or something around that crazy ratio.

i dont care about the 33 gigs i love the dead rising series and i can't wait for the game to come out

[Warrior of Right]

i'm fine with the 30 gigs i guess as long as the game good (since i already have 30 gigs wasted on that crap they call a max payne 3 sequal) and they preload it before like they said they will.

Also 30 gigs aint as much as MGS4 that was dual layer blue ray packed to the teets but true you only had to install 7 gigs of it.

You know keji inafuane gone right?
They were his games so i'm skeptical to see how crapcom messes it up.
i just swear to god if it doesn't even have the DR1 and DR2 mall music that what was epic about DR2 had both OST's.
Aint Dead Rising without the mall music don't care if you aint in a mall and it not on xbox 360 where i have all 3 OST's on the HDD already to go when i was playing Case Zero and Case stuck in a building getting shot at all the time and can't free roam cause if you fail a mission it ends the game instead of letting you keep going.
