Battlefield 3 PS3 Mandantory HDD Install Size Revealed

October 21st, 2011 Damian Antony Seeto PS3 3 comments

While the Xbox 360 version of Battlefield 3 are punished for having two discs, the PS3 version will have an install that players needs to install before playing the game.

If you’re one of the PS3 gamers who are stuck on the small 160GB hard drive, I’m sure that by now, it’s almost full. Before you pick up Battlefield 3, make sure that you have at least 2GB of data that’s free. Otherwise, you’ll have to free up some of your precious HDD space.

Check back with us early next week for our breakdown on Battlefield 3. Is it worth getting? or Should you pick up Modern Warfare 3 at least? Soon!

Xbox owners also have a pretty much mandatory install, as if they don’t they get really low resolution textures when running from the Xbox’s slow DVD drive.
The Xbox is also said to look inferior even if they do install.

@anonman93 I doubt it would be only 2gb. The BETA was a little more than 1gb and that was just one map and the graphics weren’t on the highest for Consoles. I think it would be around 10gb.
