This. GTA4 required excessive amounts of twiddling to even run at all when I got it.

They may have just done a Titanfall and left something entirely uncompressed. That game came with 35 gig of uncompressed sound files, allegedly for performance reasons, resulting in a purely multiplayer game that had only a handful of maps taking up almost 50 gig of my hard drive. 65 gig for something with the size and detail of GTAV doesn't seem that unreasonable.

65GB might be a problem...

Ah, I guess I held off buying it until it was in a sale/bundle as I'd already had enough of taking my cousin bowling on the 360. By then time I did, I didn't have any probs with it.

A little heads up: Titanfall is on sale on Origin this weekend, pick it up whilst you have the chance as it a good, dynamic shooter that's a bit like cod4 only with mechs and wall jumping. Be sure to get the deluxe edition for all the maps.
