Anyone know how much Hard Drive space F1RS takes up ?

Thanks

A full 3Dfx install is somewhere between 160-190MB. There are smaller options
(I think the least (minimum) is ~70MB) But, you wouldn't want anything less
than full-install anyway to facilitate quick menu-switch times.

Full install is about 197Mb.

Look at the disk requirements for Longbow 2 next time your in a store, if
I'm not mistaken it's around 270 mb. Game developers must jump with joy as
hard drive sizes increase <g>

I works the other way also.

HardDrive manufacturers must jump with joy, when they see games that
require so much drive space. :)

It's not in the stores yet, but you can call 1-800-UBI-SOFT if you want a
copy. I received mine the next day.

I was told last week by Electronics Boutique, that it would be a few more weeks
before F1RS hites the shelves. I understand it can be ordered from Ubisoft but
do not know if it is the North America version.

F1RS is the worst game in history because one of the 16 included tracks
is 1.218274323240926523452341234 inches lower in one corner than it is is
real life!!!!

There, glad I got that off my chest.

If they call it a SIM why are the tracks not perfect ???
They had better put "A simulated simulation" on the box!
