GT5 Prologue download weighs 1.9GB

To download or to get the Blu-ray version: that’s the question.

Gran Turismo 5 Prologue’s release is coming rather soon for both our American and European readers. However, which version should one pick up? For those seeking instant gratification off the hard drive, perhaps the download is the way to go. But take note: the download weighs a hefty 1.9GB.

Some might be wondering: how come the game is so small when a Blu-ray disc can hold so much more? By getting rid of all the videos. Eurogamer explains: “Prologue reduces its footprint is by leaving cinematics on the server until you choose to download them from GT TV. You can choose to download the opening motion picture at any time, and when you finish Event series you’re told that you can now download the end motion picture from the in-game high-definition TV download page.”

Personally, this blogger is much more interested in picking up the retail copy. Who wants to wait to download over and over again?
