HALO 5 GUARDIANS- HARDRIVE SPACE???

Hello everybody
Im just as exited as everyone to get my hands on Halo 5, but i was wondering how much space is going to use on my hard drive since the news of all collector´s editions are going to be digital, i know you can change it if you want a physical disk but i wanted to know just to discard

Thank you

60Gbs is what it says on the Amazon listing for the Halo Xbox.
look at the picture listed, on the lower right hand corner.

Buy an external hard drive. Problem solved.

Also, the base level collectors edition (the one without the Chief/Locke statue) has a physical disc.

I don't want to make any assumptions about where you live, or your financial situation, but where I live (Australia) things are generally more expensive than in the US, and I can get a 1TB drive for less than a new game, and if I opt for smaller (say 500GB) it's even cheaper. If you're worried about space and don't want to delete things, that's the best option.

Even if you get the physical disk, you will still have to install it before you can play the game. So either way you'll need up to 60 GB free on your hard drive.

Installing the game from a disk usually takes 15-20 minutes. Actually downloading the game can take anywhere from 20 minutes-a few days depending on your internet speeds.

Did you know that if you uninstall games from your HDD, you retain your save files? So if you want to go back to those games all you have to do is reinstall them. This is what I do to cycle space on my hard drive and honestly it saves me moolah I could be using to actually buy games.

It is not 60gb. That's just a placeholder Amazon uses. Just like how they put December 31st.

Guessing 80 gb after all the patches. Lol

Yes this is about right.

Lets just say, it took over a week for us to download MCC. So I will have to wait awhile..
