well speaking about google
like many having more spare time on my hands then usual been playing around with things and develop new plans to get really rich
chances of winning lotto here: roughly 1 in 13 million.
aha, time to cheat, they say google knows everything, surely it knows the next lotto numbers
- google said there were 38 million results!
deduction: chances of google being correct about 3 times less likely than winning the lotto.
Google sucks!
back to the drawing board.

Years ago I bought a PS4 on sale so I could play Fallout 4 - I'm a sucker for the fallout franchise. Shut up and take my money.
And yet, now I've finally decided to game some more, and so I went to download some new games and my poor hard drive is out of space. I have I think 3 games installed right now.
It's only 120GB but still, that's like almost 40GB installed per game!
I mean, I get it. Games these days have huge budgets and the textures and worldmap size to match. Still, I have to wonder why Sony even sold a 120GB PS4 system in the first place, with HDDs being so cheap and knowing the probable size of the games - which I'm sure sony did at release time.
Man, I remember when games were on proper cartridges and you didn't need to fiddle with any of this.
That would be nice. I've been bored spitless for the past few days waiting for my new 1TB HDD to come so I can slap it in and download the rest of the yakuza franchise.

Modern Warfare is ~185GB and Warzone is ~101GB  I get it too but it's still pretty comical. I've been playing mostly PoE (just checked, 21.4GB) and online chess.

But why? How complicated can first person shooters be? I mean, you can only shoot people in so many different locales before it all starts kind of running together. Then again, maybe I'm not the one to ask, since I stopped playing FPS games after that repeat of Doom, Quake. I can't tell them apart.

graphics files, I am guessing. These games have massive maps and those massive maps need graphics files for all resolutions, etc.
World of Warcraft is the same way, huge footprint, mostly due to graphics related files, and code.

What Slacker said. Also some of these games are uncompressed to speed up loading times. I haven't seriously played an FPS since BF2142 but I know a lot of the modern ones have interactive/destructible environments which I imagine is more complex than textures slapped on a wall.
