I've never actually played online. Mostly co-op campaign. That's why I never got this one.

The multiplayer is pretty good in Halo 5. I think it's the best thing about the game so you'll miss out if you just play the boring campaign.

That's 1/3rd of my monthly internet quota. Well not really, more like 130% since I share that with 3 others in my household. Next gen better use 4K UHD or BDXL discs.

I love how Halo 5 and Quantam break are over 80+ gigs, while 3DS games have never exceeded 5 gigs :P

just glad that external drives are much cheaper. Makes it easier to have space

Is 240GB enough for you every month?? My household always ends up using 600-700GB a month and there's only 3 people in the house.

It's 270 to be exact and it's barely enough while I buy all my games physical (unless not available on disc). Needless to say streaming 4K is off the table.

Here is my "something else say below". Whoevers bright idea it was to force game installs on the gaming public is a dope. The Wii-U got it right in that department.

Unless you don't want games to get any more technically advanced than Wii U titles, there's not really any getting around it.

Nonsense. Those games could run off physical media if they wanted it to. They just decided to go cheap on us.

I'd have to see it first, but my initial gut reaction is that it must be terribly optimized. 87gb is pretty terrible for what I assume is a fairly linear game.

You will eventually have to upgrade your internet package soon as your kids get older and use the internet more.  And when you do, I suggest staying as far away from Bell as possible - they've got the worst customer service ever!

that dynamic resolution must take a lot of space

Really, there has been so many things added since the launch of the game, of course it will manage 30gb on top of the original 60gb.

Forge, Forge content, game types, armors, helmets, skins, 10+ maps, Firefight, weapons.
