    DR3, Forza 5, and BF4 all have game updates that are around 14GB, that's like half the size of the games... What are in these that cause the updates to be so massive? There's not even that much new content. I know X360 never had any that big, the biggest
    I ever saw was like 2GB. IT'S WASTING ALL MY HARD DRIVE SPACE!!

    I can understand how annoying this can be, but if you think about it, the graphics of each any content, plus the size...its going to be huge. As LanceX2 has suggested, if you do find yourself running out of space, you can go get an external hard drive. Or
    if that doesn't suit your fancy, you can delete some games if your running out of space.
