My smallest is probably Zork, but might be Ultima; I'm really not sure on the file sizes of the two on their own. A year ago my largest was The Old Republic (I think it was 30 GB when I uninstalled), but now it's probably Borderlands 2.

Biggest: Maybe Crysis 2 or Batman Arkham City or something. I think those are around 10 GB each.

Smallest: does an NES rom smaller than 1 MB count? lol.

If they do I'm going to go back and change mine to a 4K 2600 ROM. :P

I opted to not count ROMs though.

Largest is X-Plane 9 with mods, running in at around 90gb. Without the mods, it's only a whopping 73ish. :lol:

I think my smallest is Ultimate Doom. That's around 20mb I think.

GTA4 is the largest, currently. It's about 36GB all said and done.

Smallest, I'm not sure.

How... wha...

Why would you ever do that for a flight sim?

I would assume for texture data based off satellite maps.

Do I win? :lol:

Yeah. It's mostly terrain and texture data. If I were to only have North America and Europe installed it would only be around about 40gb I'm sure. I just figured, I had the space, so why not install it all!?
