Did you even read my post?


I'm specifically addressing the bolded. I know what "a lot of games" means. But unless "a lot of games" to you means "literally everything that comes out," he is never going to need that much HDD space. If he buys 20 full retail games with 50GB of data, which isn't likely at all, but let's just pretend. That's a lot of games. That's only 1TB of data. In order for him to need 4TB, he'd have to buy 80 full retail games. But let's stop pretending, because in actuality, very few games need that much space, even with saves, DLC, and patches. That means more than 80 retail games. Buy hey, what about indies? Those are like MB sometimes. Super small on average. So let's go back to 80 games, and add like 100 indie games, because let's be frank here, those games take up absolutely no space at all.

80 ish retail games, on top of a 100 ish indie games. What normal person do you seriously think is buying that many games in one generation? How many people can even afford to buy all that? Let's be unrealistically generous and assume that those 80 games where all purchased for an average of $20 each. Let's go even further and assume that the 100 indies where bought for like $10 each. That's $2,600 worth of games if they were severely discounted.

Yes, I read your post. It's absolutely absurd. The most hardcore of gamer shouldn't need more than 2TB.
