I am really dissapointed with that list of games, lots of them are straight forward types of games like shooters and sports games and they have to have an install, wtf.  I can understand a game like gta or mgs or assassin's cread because they are games with bigger worlds that need loading but MLB08?! Skate?! Virtua Fighter?! Seriously.  That is lazy coding if you ask me.

Lazy coding?  I thought it was because the blu-ray was so slow at delivering data?

 

Uncharted had no in-game loading times or installations.

 

that is true, uncharted had no loading screens or installations, and I was playing Burnout Paradise earlier and relalized that it had no installation either, and its world is quite large.  There is a file for 300mb on my hard drive but that was an update that I downloaded last week.  So if Burnout has no installation, I really have to wonder why all those games needed to.  The ones I bolded are the ones I can understand having installs, but the others.....



OR !! OR !! EXTERNAL HDD FTW !!!!! Like me =) !!



Well what do you think PC gamers do?
