Game Downloads Surpass Discs for First Time

[HDTV1080P]

I know more people are getting 1Gbps and 10Gbps Internet download services, however the hard drive on the XBOX and Playstation is only so big. If a programmer wants to create a super large game that use a 100GB Blu-ray disc on the X-BOX One and a 50GB Blu-ray disc on the Playstation 4, then after a while there is only so much space on the hard drive.


The last I read is that all physical Playstation 2, 3, and 4 games are on BD-ROM discs including the latest XBOX One games. Yes one can make a download version of any game but the hard drives can only hold so much space unless people start making Playstation and XBOX 20TB and larger external hard drive servers.
