SORRY, But I Think We Need Some Space

I have about the same amount of installed games on 250 GB 360 as I have on X1 1 TB - that makes you think, doesn't it.

25-30 games or so, mostly AAA titles.

Now 4k - just shuffles the more data around - occupying disk space as well as slow machine down.

Most of extra TFLOPS is used processing is handling more data.

It shoudl maybe be equipped with 4 TB in regard to size of games as they will be.

I wish MS the best of luck with X1X, would be cool if it really takes off.

But seing this forum as one thing, still after one year not functioning properly. No edit come through, screw up front page not seeing how long ago last post was etc - I don't have much hope.

Xbox seem to be low budget part of Microsoft - and they hire rookies for so many things. Home screen is still some oddball, as Xbox store is too - cluttered like magazine with ads all over.

I waited three years after X1 introduction before getting one and will probably do the same for X1X.

Or we are all overwhelmingly suprised what X1X brings and can't wait to get one - will be interesting to watch either way....but hopes it secures a future for Xbox...

Forza 7 will be around 100gb with the 4k update I think & I guess other games will be getting near that as well.

I'm the same,i mostly play on a 500gb console & have no problem.

If I do fancy playing something that isn't on my hard drive I just redownload it.

I know that can be an issue for those with data caps but an external hard drive is the way to go if that's a problem.

Plugging one in & formatting it really isn't a inconvenience is it?

I know I can be lazy but even I can manage that.

Yea you're correct. Adding new hard drives is the self solving issue but i only have about 200 games occupying my xbox and external hard drives and the library's of games is well over that. My kids have friends that come play, i have gatherings b etc so
constantly erasing and waiting for downloads and updates gets old crazy fast. Maybe there's no way around the huge space games take up other than erasing games and buying more hard drives.

To the original poster.

You do realise that if you delete a game of your hard drive, you can re-download it again in the future right?

I mean I don't know what you do for a living, but I play a couple of hours a night and I don't have the time to play the amount of games I own, you must be the same.

Also as other haves said, a system with a 10TB hard drive would just be insanely expensive. You are currently looking at roughly £350 for a 10TB hard drive, would you like to pay roughly £750 for the Xbox One X?

Xbox One X will not cost £750. Microsoft has set a RRP of US$499, AU$649 and NZ$749. And European currency is more valuable than NZ currency.

My Seagate SLIM 1TB HDD cost me NZ$99 and comes with a 3 year warranty from Seagate.

It's best to get your own external HDD. Because Microsoft will charge a lot more, to build a console with a larger HDD. You can get more storage cheaper from 3rd parties than the prices Microsoft will charge. I remember when Xbox 360 Slim 4GB and 250GB models
came out. They were like NZ$249 for the 4GB model and NZ$399 for the 250GB model. $100-$250 for a 4GB storage capacity console? ANOTHER reason why to buy external and from 3rd parties, is because companies like Seagate etc offer longer warranties on their
HDD's than the standard 12 month warranty Microsoft issues with consoles.

You also have digital rights too. When you gave Microsoft your money, you can download and redownload the game off Xbox Live to a console Unlimited amount of times. You hold a license to use and download as many times as you like. But I think you may need
to chill with how many games your Xbox One with external HDD's attached, has. I mean how many games do you want to store at once - 200? 300? The average person likely only stores under 100 games at once ready for their entertainment. You have to be mindful
too that Xbox One game sizes are a lot massive compared to Xbox 360 game file sizes.

Perhaps try to simplify your life. You don't want a long list of games you don't play daily/regularly on your storage device. You can always re-install or re-download those games when it becomes necessary. I've purchased 25 games on Xbox One, and still manage
to fit them onto my 1TB Seagate and 500GB console. You can't tell me you play 25 games every day. We have school and/or work. And those things alone take up a huge chunk of time. Then there's sleep which is suppose to be 8 hours a night too. Perhaps try simplifying.

I've yet to see a game up to 100GB. Also, when a game update is 10GB and then the next up date is 6 or whatever, it doesn't add into the overall space taken up. It overwrites the previous update.

I rock a 500GB and still have 100GB free. I've gone all digital over two years ago. I just delete games I know I won't play again. No point in downloading them and keeping them there for no reason.

I'm fine with 500. I only play one game at a time.

As i prefaced this feed with saying this thread is about serious gamers and downloaders....i play multiple games at different times throughout the week. Im currently playing around 11 or so games. Plus i have children and a spouse who play. And yes we have
more than 1 console. U don't mind constantly erasing data n u only play 1 game at a time. And i can screen shot you pix of my games and the space they take up if you don't believe me.
