Gran Turismo 5 will be one of the most technologically sophisticated racing games in the history of the industry, but that sophistication won't come without a price.When users finally open the case of GT5 in November, the first thing they'll notice is the game asking for a 10 GB install to the hard drive. Though, the install is not required, but the installation will make the game run a whole lot "smoother".
The game save file will tick in at 256 MB, which is still kind of large for a save file but shouldn't be any issue for PS3 users.
In addition to brilliantly rendered cars and a dizzying number of race tracks, Gran Turismo 5 will potentially become the first full disc-based PS3 game that supports 3D resolution. With all that power, the install file size isn't outrageous but it is certainly a much bigger chunk than anyone expected.
Gran Turismo 5 will launch in the US on November 2.
