It should be around 2.5 Go big on your hard drive. Don't know whether it will be several cd-rom or a dvd.

I hope it's not DVD. I have a Shuttle with an external CDR/W and so if it's on DVD I've got to have the case open with an IDE cable hanging out of it connected to a DVD drive

That sucks ~:cool:

i also hope that it comes on CD rom. I don't have a dvd drive on my main machine for playing games and was quite annoyed the driver 3 was on dvd.

If you look at the box art (on www.totalwar.com) it has the PC CD-ROM label on it.

I have no problem with neither of them, but like was said before about 2.5 gb.

Rome comes on three CDs if I remember rightly. It certainly isn't DVD-only.

(I think they took the decision to make Far Cry DVD-only on the basis that few or no machines modern enough to support its hefty min spec would be lacking a DVD.)

Strange. I thought that DVD Roms were being phased out of the industry - guess I was wrong.

I've seen a few people complain about 3 cd's. Am i the only person who doesn't mind how many cd's a game comes on as long as it will run on my computer.

Thats really annoying and stupid. I was going to borrow it off a mate as my PC has the minimum specs to play far cry. Quite glad i didn't as id of got annoyed as to why it wouldn't work (it woudn't occured to me that it was a dvd only game)
