Call of Duty: Ghosts PC install is 50GB

4.4
Call of Duty: Ghosts will take up a whopping 50GB of drive space when installed on your PC, blocking installation of other games by the sheer weight of its many assets.

For comparison purposes, BioShock Infinite takes up 20GB minimum with 30GB recommended, Saints Row 4 is 10GB, and Battlefield 4 wants 30GB.

The hefty install size was revealed in the shooter’s PC requirements, which also include a surprisingly high-end minimum GPU. Here’s the full spec list, courtesy of Nvidia:

Minimum System Requirements
OS: Windows 7 64-Bit / Windows 8 64-Bit
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E8200 2.66 GHZ / AMD Phenom X3 8750 2.4 GHZ or better
RAM: 6 GB RAM
HDD: 50 GB HD space
Video: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti / ATI Radeon HD 5870 or better
Sound: DirectX Compatible Sound Card
DirectX: 11
Internet: Broadband connection and service required for Multiplayer Connectivity. Internet connection required for activation.

No word yet on how large the download will be for the PS3, PS4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One versions, but it’s likely to be in the same ballpark. Ghosts is also coming to Wii U. Current-gen versions arrive on November 5, with next-gen versions due when the hardware launches later in the month.

Wow, that's really all I can say about that. It's massive

Man...

Just one thing after another, in addition to my GPU and PSU, I'll have to get a new HDD.

I'm just glad HDD's are relatively cheap, and don't need to break the bank while purchasing.

Well Max Payne 3 was 50gb on PC and it looked BEAUTIFUL. So hopefully it's the same with this.

Gossip This is why you should get it on console. Doesn't take up as much space.


but the gameplay and graphics would obviously be limited though. That extra space isn't there just to be there. Consoles are limited to around 8 gigs a disk

For console this would kill it. Pretty demanding but Crysis 3 has the crown for requirements. Well if you don't count some sandbox games like Garry's Mod which you can keep pushing it until your game crashes. The space requirement is probably because Steam is treating the single player and multiplayer like they are different games.

50GB is a very large file to download especially on my slow internet ._.

Those minimum system requirements seem to be abnormally high too.

50gb is nothing. Unless you download a lot of pr0n or have a lot of games, it's not going to be any problem.

I think battlefield 4 is like 60GB. I don't think COD needs that much.
