Pretty simple fail from Sony...

Why is it a fail from Sony? Because they didn't give you unlimited storage space? Suck it up and do what the rest of us do, clear some space.

I think the fail from Sony was to allow game developers to do mandatory installations. On a system which can have as low as 20 GB of hard drive space, this is a big inconvenience especially for those who aren't used to the PC way of doing things.

This is acceptable on PCs, but consoles were traditionally expected to be a more immediate and simple experience (and judging from sales in this generation, that's still the case).

So yeah, all in all I think Sony failed here. 

 

I think developers hate Sony enough as it is without Sony making them hate Sony more.

You really don't NEED an installation, especially not a large one. None of my Sony games have more than a 500MB install, if any at all (except inFamous, which is around a gigabyte for some reason).
