File size doesn't matter with a game like Gears

"GRUUUUUBBBBBBSS!! "

So psyched

BartMoons3211d ago

I agree that 'size doesn't matter' (some women might differ) but its interesting to see the file size different that has come with the years.

MSBAUSTX3211d ago

Im psyched too. I love this series and havent played the first one in a long time. I am just now about to finish the third and then play Judgement. It will be nice to have the reaster to play once I am done with judgement and then next year get 4. Cant wait.

donthate3210d ago

I know it is is a big size, but doesn't that just mean more content!

So excited for this game and we are getting it in 1.5 months!

High-res textures, pre-rendered videos and additional maps need more space than 6.8GB.

BartMoons3211d ago

The Original on the 360 is still one of the best shooters I've played. Imagine the excitement when this releases even more beautiful.

Mikefizzled3211d ago

Add in the 4 chapters in Act 5 that was only on PC too.

GusBricker3211d ago

Heh. That's one helluva extra Act!

BartMoons3211d ago

Don't think one extra act adds 40GB:)

1nsomniac3211d ago

It'll be the uncompressed sound that takes the majority of space.

BillytheBarbarian3211d ago

I don't think it matters much. Just redone higher resolution cut scenes. Every game is up scaled. Madden is double the size at 16 gigs, NBA 2k is 50 gigs, etc... It's just the nature of the beast.

SkatterBrain1605d ago

can i trust them with my debit card?

franwex1605d ago (Edited 1605d ago )

Use a credit card if you are kinda leary. Not a debit card.
I have bought stuff from them and had no problems, so I guess it’s okay.

Thunder_G0d_Bane1605d ago

Are keys legit or will Sony unleash ban hammer

ElementX1605d ago

I've heard they're bought with stolen credit card numbers. The person gets the transactions reversed because it was stolen, but the "seller" gets the game codes to sell on CDKeys and other grey market sites.

The issue with these sites is that 'some people' buy keys in sales with stolen credit cards, then you buy the game from them...Then the company get the chargeback so it actually costs the game company money. I'm not convinced this is a vast majority though as pretty sure if it was a fraud site it woud just be closed down. Only issue I've had with an invalid key was for splinter cell blacklist for 38p. Pretty sure that is penny fraud. i.e. most people won't bother disputing as it's not worth it.
