Bleh, it took me all day to download PvZ and that was 17GB. What happened to the days of being able to buy a game and just sit down and play?

That disappeared with the release of the PS3 and 360, when systems included a hard drive, allowing developers to update the games if they found any problems.

Having hard drives in consoles is the worst thing to ever happen to the industry imo.  DLC is number two.

*edit*

The original Xbox had a hard drive, but the games shipped complete and there weren't massive updates for bug fixes.  The PS2 had a hard drive but it was optional, forcing devs to release a complete game at the start.
