They would be a fool to give you the option to install completely.
We would all install our games and then trade the disc in or sell it.

Theoretically it makes it so the game is more responsive because the machine has access to what it needs now versus finding it on the disc. More like a PC I would guess.

Oh wait, then that's completely lame, though I'm sure there's some reason for it. :lol:

Large installs help offset the slower speed of accessing data via the blu-ray drive. It should reduce loading screens at the start of the game and reduce time between levels.

I downloaded this.
Haven't played it yet.

My wife's cousin is a developer that worked on the DC Universe online game.
So I am curious how it is.

I will have to give it a try.


And Corey, it looks like you got a few different answers of why they install much of the data off the disc to the hard drive.

I played it some on the PS3. I wonder if the universe will be the same or if PS4 will be on different servers.

We would do better as a Legion of Doom or Justice Lords group than as the Justice League or Green Lantern Corp.

And.... I just lost 99% of you.

He's part of the 1%. Though, honestly, 50% of the country knows Avengers are Marvel because of the movie/movies.

Stop being negative just to be negative. It's not getting you anywhere.

You're being negative just to be negative by calling me negative.

No, I actually strongly dislike comic books for very solid reasons.

Not sure I understand disliking comic books. Did they beat your team in the Super Bowl twice in dramatic fashion?
