But honestly it is not so bad for games,  Don't take 4k movies around 100 GB? I remember one of the first 4K movies surpassing 150 GB.

Netflix streams them at around 18 mbps with HDR, that's 7.9 GB per hour or 16GB for a 2 hour movie.
4K UHD discs can hold upto 100GB Not all of that is for the movie as it includes multiple soundtracks and extras.

The first 4K movie was 330GB for a 52 minute movie in 4096x2304 12 bit cineform format.

4K UHD is still very lossy compressed compared to that, that file runs at over 800 mbps, compared to max 128 mbps for 4K UHD discs.

It wouldn't be so bad for games if they came on 4K UHD discs, and installed to a 2Tb SSD drive :)

Sure I just remember those lists back in the day it is hard to find them like this one for example:


It is all confusing because I see people discussing that some aren't really 4k but are upscale to 4K etc.
