Hmmm, 18 GB seems abit steep.

It's not the engine that takes up the space, it's the amount of textures and models, sounds etc so it doesn't matter if you run GTA4 on a UT3 or Crysis engine.

Still, not going to buy it probably anyway.

18gb wow, I've got it on the 360 anyway and it wasn't all what it was suppose to be so I doubt I'll be purchasing it for the pc.

18 GB is ridiculous. There is absolutely no excuse to require that much disk space when the entire fucking game can fit on a single DVD which is less than half of that. Hopefully they just misread the number and added an extra digit in front of the 8. :-/

Not so ridiculous compared to those flight simulators, apparently there's one that takes 60 GB of space.

Well, shit. Hopefully the GPU they're recommending isn't close to mine.

Seriously, Thats Kinda Rediculous, Unless they are using ub3r compression (first 7z, then rar, then uharc, then 7z, then rar O.o)

Who says its going to be on 1 DVD disk? Because The Xbox version is? Well PC version is different than Xbox, higher res textures, why? Because they CAN put it on more than one dvd as its loaded on the HD.

To me 18GB isnt anything, only because of my 500GB, sure I have 140GB left spare but I can make room, without the 500GB I'd still be on 80 and worried about space.

I doubt I'll get it fo PC, even though my xbox version doesnt work (damn you!)

New Screenshots - Yah small I know :(

Arsed eh? Maybe the 18GB is due to an addition of a SDK this time :-3? I won't hold my breath...
