You're basing that on what exactly? It's possible they have the option but I can't see why a developer would bother when they can just have game data on the HDD and loading a lot faster.
The only people this really hurts are consumers who're going to have to purchase new HDDs or manage their game data. Developers are happy with this state of affairs.
Buy SSD, buy games from PS Store, welcome to your instant loading times.

Your response is useless.
I'll just repeat myself again, Sony said ALL games must be installed. That leads me to believe developers don't have the option to run games off the disc.
I will believe otherwise if we see a single game with no required install.

To strengthen your position... which PS4 retail games do you think won't profit from faster loading times by caching data to the much faster HDD?
Please give us some examples!

The size increase is mostly due to more detailed textures, to fill up that that ram and 1080p framebuffer, it really is a none issue, if youve got crap internet buy box product. |
I don't have a PS4, so I can only comment on what I have had. I've had over 100 games for each my PS3 and Xbox 360 at one time. A 500GB hard drive would fill up pretty fast if you had to do a mandatory install of many 25+GB games. For me, over time, I'd have to delete a game to play a new one or one that I had to delete before. For me, I like convenience, pop the disc in and play. That's been my biggest complaint with the PS3. I've bought new games that required a 1+ hour patch, then an install of said patch before I could even play the game. I have limited time, so I don't like to wait that long as I end up just doing something else instead
Stop hating and start playing.

Uhmm... any PS4 game at the moment. They all look like PS3 games.
This is a stupid argument. My point is developers don't have the option to run a game off the disc. You just keep arguing the benefits of a HDD. You're in defensive mode for no good reason.

So the 400 GB of RAM (since some go to the OS) means I can only have 7-10 games before my HDD Is full? :(

That was a subtle hint for a link/source. So, source?

Yes, all PS4 Blu-ray Disc games must be cached to the hard drive to ensure a smooth gaming experience. However, certain titles may not require you to wait for the game data to be fully cached before starting gameplay. In order to start playing disc-based games, users will need to insert the game disc into PS4 just like on the PS3 system.
