    Default MASSIVE Game sizes

    Now call me pants-on-head ******ed, but has anyone ever noticed that some games may have some pretty insane typos in there file sizes? for example:
    http://www.onrpg.com/mmorpg-free-games4.html
    I may be new to this site. Insanely new infact. but i dont think that "Deloria", as big and inventive as im sure it was(in 2003), was two thousand three hundred forty gigabytes?
    AND... Dominance - The Throne of Elders, as much ripping fun as a turn based, 4 year old, pixel vs pixel game strategy could be, i dont think it was five hundred twenty-four terabytes.

    The games get bigger since the code , for the most part becomes a bit sloppier. The huge storage capacity of most machines now allow for such large file sizes and thus no incentive to keep size down.

    Yes, size does matter

    he meant that in the old forum the game editor mistaked kilobytes (maybe even bytes) for megabytes, giving some funny reviews about game's sizes...

    I can't imagine anyone bothering to clean up that list. You can just check the website for the accurate size anyways.
