As seen from the official boxart of the game itself,a minimum of 3340KB HDD space is required for the game to run in a PS3.

Not scans btw.

Holy Shit ?

From GS forums...

Update: New screens at the official site as well. (Props to Notjackbaur)

Oni Jazar · Apr 11, 2008

I *knew* I shouldn't have installed a 3Mb Hard Drive to replace the 60Gb.

This. I read both versions require installations?

Let's just get this out of the way right now.

1) Mandatory installs suck.

2) Optional installs rock.

Edit: Wait, 3 mb? What the hell? :lol

I don't think 3 megs would require 10 min to install.

Francias Castiglione · Apr 11, 2008

3MB? Probably for the auto-save.

You read it. A liar wrote it though.

Isn't that just 3.3MB? I don't see it taking 10 minutes.

ImNotLikeThem · Apr 11, 2008

Wait, am I missing something here? Is the news really about the fact that GTA IV needs 3MBs of space to run? Seriously?

greatestjediever · Apr 11, 2008

3340 KB or MB?

edit: damn beaten by 3 people at the same time!

Geoff9920 · Apr 11, 2008

That's one hell of a typo. Major 3MB install, confirmed.

SnakeswithLasers · Apr 11, 2008

Umm...... How is a 3mb install news?

keyrat · Apr 11, 2008

3MB oh noessss! the horror!

edit: this is probably just the space required for the save file.

jjasper · Apr 11, 2008

How is 3MB a big deal?

Is it even an install? I'd assume that's for the game save.

EDIT - And it's not even that large.

It's KB if the boxart is to be believed. I can't wait for that gigantic install!

snacknuts · Apr 11, 2008

That has to be just the save file.

commish · Apr 11, 2008

That's it, 360 wins this generation. Sales skyrocket on news.

dark10x · Apr 11, 2008

Wow, a whopping 3mb. Why, that's going to take an eternity to install!

h3ro · Apr 11, 2008

3.3MB huh...

OMG SONY SUX FREAKING INSTALLZ WITH NO SANDWICHES IN THE BOX

it's needed for a game that requires 5gb. 4.97gb won't just work ;(

Steroyd · Apr 11, 2008

3MB! Glad Sony ditched those 8MB mem cards or I'd have been up shit creek.

I AM JOHN! · Apr 11, 2008

Nester · Apr 11, 2008

3MB install? That's not nearly enough time to make a sandwich. When the fuck am I supposed to make my sandwiches?

deadhorse32 · Apr 11, 2008

The keyword is minimum :O

Alex · Apr 11, 2008

Three megs? Fucking bullshit, how many floppy discs do you think I own Rockstar? Pre-order canceled.

that wont stop them from complaining though :lol

SnakeswithLasers · Apr 11, 2008

It's sooooo awesome that there were 9 separate responses at 10:57, each one of them saying "3MB." It's like a moment of sanity instantly hit GAF.

Dot50Cal · Apr 11, 2008

DAMN! Not 3MB! What ever will we do!??!! :lol :lol :lol

Minimum is a good word. My copy of UT3 has 250 meg minimum, then it has an option for install to speed up loading and stuff.

If this is real, the thing that has me excited is 1080p.

I find hilarious that the blu-ray based console needs a hard drive, but thats me....

It'll take three pages for someone to quote it three times and bold it for the rest of GAF to see that this is the bare minimum.

Naughty Dog regard streaming textures from the hard drive a necessity for all PS3 developers.
