yes, yes I do
storage capacity has always been a problem ever since they first started programming video games
needing to remove certain parts of the game (characters, background, a sound, etc) so everything will fit onto the disc or cartridge
with 400 gigs of space, the possibilities are damn near endless, I couldn't even fathom what could be done with a PS3 game being able to store 400 gigs of game data, it's mind boggling
I dunno, space limitations oftentimes force the developers to filter out the crap so that only the best aspects of a game make it in. Without limitations, we could see developers become more careless. Just a thought.
I'm not a huge fan of modern games as it is, but with 400 gigs of space I cant even comprehend the type of games that would come out of it. I fear games are becoming more of an interactive movie, than something separate from relality completely. I hope that if they do use the space, they make something like a grand scale RPG with multiple paths and endings, or something with a very high replay value. And please God no more First Person Shoters, theres too many of them already!

I have programmed yes, and yea actually I do
and just about every video game has pushed the limits of storage capacity, and space has always been an issue with games. if your code doesn't fit, somethings getting the axe, whether its characters, levels, music, whatever the case may be or they'll reuse certain parts to save space for other things
