Gears 2 and Ninja Gaiden II were 6.7 GB, Fable II was 6.8 GB. That is about the max size for 360 discs but naturally the games will vary in size. The Orange Box is only 4.7 GB.
Installing the games only took 10 minutes each and deleting them only took 1 second.
"I'd say that the worst positioned are Midnight Club: Los Angeles (coming out in front of Need for Speed Undercover), Shaun White Snowboarding (the Wii version will do well, but is constrained by Wii Fit boards; the PS3 and 360 versions are not positioned well), Tomb Raider Underworld (a great franchise, but flying under the radar this holiday), and (waits for the slams from Gamasutra readers...) Animal Crossing: City Folk.
The last is a great franchise, but the Wii audience is dominated by the mass-market audience, and Animal Crossing is somewhat more hardcore than most Nintendo titles. I think that the game will do very well, but will likely be disappointing, relative to expectations."
Animal Crossing likely wont blow it out in sales like a COD4 but its a game which sells at lower levels for well over a year as we saw on DS. Even the cube version ended up selling over 2 million and the DS version outsold Halo 2. With little else exclusive for U.S Wii owners, at least this Christmas I think it will do well over its lifespan.
BLOOD OF BAHAMUT PREVIEW
http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3171399
but the basic premise here appears to be "multiplayer wireless SOTC with enormous dual-screen 3D visuals," which it's hard to deny the charm of.
There is this site that sells refurbished 360 hard drives for a cheaper price. I think its 360 upgrade.com or something. Its an official site I think.
I may get one to play shivering isles.

Michael Pachter is comedy gold! ![LOL](/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-laughing.gif)
I installed Kameo which took up around 5.3GB. The install cut the load times down significantly. I'm not going to install every game I play, but it does seem to be a nice option for those who have a large HDD.
I love Pachter, without him we would never get awesome gifs like this one by Mama_Robotnik.
GTAIV DLC actually exists. wow.
Wha??? My fucking word...
I hate the new Xbox Dashboard.
Nintendo: A Games Corporation. And everyone that works there looks like they came from a Lawyer firm. Like I really give 2 shits what they have to say.
You continue to like everything.
Nope I only like things that deserve it.
You talking about Denise or Cammy? The white one or the black one? They both look and sound like clueless soccor moms though.

BLOOD OF BAHAMUT (DS)
Video here: http://gamekyo.com/videoen13613_blood-of-bahamut-first-video.html
http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3171399
The Nintendo DS-exclusive Blood of Bahamut doesn't appear to be strictly based off Bahamut Lagoon, a Japan-only game released by Square in 1996, but there are a few links -- game director Motomu Toriyama worked on that Super NES title's storyline, and the basic world setting of people carving out living space on little patches of floating land is familiar. Here, though, the little patches are actually sleeping monsters, freakin' enormous ones at that, and when they all wake up one day and start fighting each other, the fate of all the people living on them isn't exactly rosy.
This initial unveiling of Blood of Bahamut shows a team of four players facing off against Gigant, a humanoid beast that was once home to about 100,000 before it, er, shrugged them off. "They've all fled now that he's awake," Toriyama explained to Famitsu magazine this week. "They have no chance of defeating him at all, and within that desperate situation, we have the main characters stepping up, the ones the players control." You choose your guy from a field of seven, each from various countries and each with a given class of skills, and while single-player is certainly possible, you'll probably prefer to round up some friends and fact Gigant and the rest in wireless co-op mode, working together to take down these creatures with style.
"The first two things we wanted was a direct control scheme a sense of dynamic-ness beyond anyone's expectations on the DS," producer Eisuke Yokoyama comments. "From there, the idea of having the target be impossibly huge monsters came naturally, and multiplayer co-op came along soon after. That was the core concept right there -- fighting huge monsters is fun, fighting together with your friends is fun, and everything should stay fun no matter how much you fight."
While there's no talk of Wi-Fi support yet, the strategic element of this mission-based action RPG (there's something like 130 missions to play here) is more than a bit enticing. Players are free to move all around the game's world during each battle, allowing one player to distract a monster's attention while the other three go around to its back. How it'll all come together, we'll have to wait a bit to see -- there's no release date or price announced yet.

Hey guys I need suggestions...
I'm probably going to buy a game this weekend for PC. What do you think is the best choice of:
- Fallout 3
- Command & Conquer 3
- COD: World at War
- Other?
I'm looking for the best single-player experience out of all of them, since I can't connect to most games online because of the damn university's port-blocking.
De Blob goes on my Christmas list with whatever games I don't choose now. No Wii games on the list because I will be at university without Wii... I'll play them for 2 weeks during the Christmas break.
I've only played Fallout 3 but I found it an excellent game that's absolutely huge so you'll get a ton of playtime out of it. I'd recommend that. I'd also definately recommend Fable II. Gorgeous looking game where you can do alot of stuff in. I'd actually recommend Fable II first and Fallout 3 second.
Consider World of Goo (or get it during thems 2 weeks on Wii). Seems right up your alley.
Oh, and I don't think Fable II was released on PC (or even announced yet) which confuses me.
