Watch Dogs on current-gen requires mandatory install

4.3
If you’re planning to pick up Watch Dogs on current-gen machines, prepare yourself for a mandatory install. Ubisoft has confirmed the requirement, although the size of the install has not been confirmed. The game will also ship on two discs. “It’s the same thing as GTA[5],” said creative director Jonathon Morin.

He is of course referring to the Xbox 360 version. It’s a safe assumption that it should fit on a single disc for Wii U and a single Blu-ray disc for the PlayStation 3 release.

The launch is looming, as Watch Dogs releases on current-gen consoles on November 22. As of yet, we haven’t see any footage of the current-gen version. Morin offered this comments to VideoGamer: “It looks pretty good.”

SIKSPosted:

I'm definitely getting watch dogs, i just hope the space it requires isn't too much, if it's like GTA 5 then it's ok.

I'll probably get this game for PS4, I'm not buying anymore games for the PS3.

BSOD games are getting pretty big. We need to find a way to make cheaper bigger disks


They're called Blu-Rays. They can support up to 500 gigs. If anything ever gets that big game wise, I pretty sure we're covered.


lmao, you are really dumb. Blu Ray allows up to 50GB on a disc. hahahahahahaha


He's actually not dumb, and your ignorance is blatant. I believe it was pioneer that made the 20 layer blu ray, 25gb per layer with 20 layers is 500.


And the Xbox One, PS3, and PS4 cannot read them, so you are quite retarded.


Actually xbox one will be able to read bluray.


To -CP This is from Pioneer in 2008 "...bringing the total disc capacity to 500GB. As with the 400GB version, THE DISC IS COMPATIBLE WITH CURRENT BLU-RAY DRIVES... " Considering the ps3,ps4 and xbox one have blu-ray drives I don't see why they wouldn't be able to read them. As a side note, why do you have to go around calling that guy dumb and me a ******? It's offensive and shows how immature you are, can we just have a sophisticated conversation?


Well said, my good sir! This would be an incredible leap for gaming if this happened!

I wouldn't mind to install it to my 360, but what about the PS4, and/or Xbox One?

AxePosted:

I honestly don't mind waiting for 10-15 minutes whilst it installs. Not really a big deal.

Wow this game looks pretty cool

The Xbox One has Blu-ray just like PS3 and PS4 and companies have already started develpoing discs of upto and over 1 Terabyte. The only reason the PS3 didn't have better read speed was because the Xbox 360 had a 12x Read Speed for DVD-R and PS3 only had 8x Read Speed for DVD-R.
Sounds like someone does their homework
