Gran Turismo 5: Installation Takes 40mins; Size is 6.4GB

Although we had a release date scare earlier on in the day, we have some more juicy GT5 information to bring you now. According to a gamer, who has a copy of the game, he reveals what the initial installation size is, and how long it takes.

Of course, the full installation is optional, but if you plan on playing the game extensively (like I’m guessing most of you will), then expect a 6.4GB installation, that is said to take 40mins.

I’m not sure how accurate that is, but I wouldn’t have thought it would take that long to install. Regardless of this, you can choose not to install the game to which it will only require 256MB of your HDD space.

Even if you do choose to do either sized install, the game will also decompress itself onto your HDD the more you play and open the game. Therefore, it is thought that the game will take up more than 6.4GB of HDD space.

What are your thoughts on this?
