I’m the opposite in that I get so sweaty with exercise. I have no idea how people talk about “base layers” or wear hats when running as after a km, I’m absolutely fine (gloves are an occasional necessity though).

I used to cycle to work when I lived in Bristol but the hospital had showers and even provided towels too. I didn’t drive at that point so had no other way of getting to work which was a good push to do it!

Thought I'd reply partially over here as I have been truly terrible at posting/following threads lately. Mainly due to work in my case. Just can't seem to find a minute these days. I feel like I've lost touch with many of the regulars sometimes 😕

Glad to see you back 😃 and with a doggo no less. I hope you've been well!!

Well... I am a bit Scottish & Irish thanks to the family tree but not anything imeadiate or meaningful 😅

Yeah I'd been gone for like 2 months cus of work myself and Ash (my new doggo) is a lot of work too at the moment.

Trying to at least get a few posts written once a week so I at least have some presence on here still rather then none at all!

Can someone help me to calculate the GB size of these PS4 games when being played on PS5?
I saw the number of minimum HDD size from these games and I assumed it will be added with some GB for free upgrade in PS5.

Crash Bandicoot NSane Trilogy = 30 GB + ??? GB

CTR = 17 GB + ??? GB

Crash Bandicoot 4 = 25 GB + ??? GB

Ratchet & Clank PS4 = 25 GB + ??? GB

@Anti-Matter Only one of those games has a PS5 version: Crash Bandicoot 4. It's around 20GB on PS5.

@LiamCroft
If I have both Crash Bandicoot 4 PS4 and Ratchet & Clank PS4 in physical version, how many GB that will be used on PS5 machine after both of those games get inserted into PS5?
From the back cover I saw, Ratchet & Clank PS4 needs 25 GB , Crash Bandicoot 4 needs 25 GB, so if those games being played on PS5 machine and got the update to boost the frame rate into 60 fps, I'm very sure I will see more than 25 GB displayed on PS5 machine when I check the PS5 storage (25 GB from base game + several GB from the update). Are both of those games will take 30+ GB on PS5 machine if I used the disc version ?

The reason I asked this question because I have to be aware with GB size of every PS4 and PS5 games as they take a huge space of storage for having huge GB size games so I have to know the GB size of specific games that have more than 15 GB size as I like to add more PS4 or PS5 games in physical but I have to make sure the storage is still enough for a lot of PS4 or PS5 games I bought. I will not add External HDD as I was being told from game shop owner who was expert in video gaming, external HDD was not as durable as internal HDD so I just only depend on internal storage to install PS4 games before playing.

In my case right now, I have PS4 Slim 500 GB with currently 28 PS4 games in physical and only a few PS4 games I owned have more than 15 GB size by total after being installed and updated and I have 149.9 GB left in my PS4 storage so for the upcoming PS4 games I will buy, I have to make sure I get less than 5 GB PS4 games in physical as majority of PS4 games I want to pick are casual or kiddie games with smaller GB size.

@Anti-Matter PS5 has compression tech that reduces files sizes of games. So even with the update for frames rates, textures, etc the PS5 version will most likely be a smaller file size than the PS4 version.

Life is more fun when you help people succeed, instead of wishing them to fail.

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.

So that means if I inserted Ratchet & Clank PS4 disc onto PS5 machine, even after got update for 60 fps, the game only take 20 GB in PS5 storage, not more than 25 GB according to back cover of the game?
And how many GB for Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart PS5 disc version after being installed onto PS5?
I saw it require at least 50 GB.

@Anti-Matter If it’s a PS4 version, it’ll take up the exact same amount of storage on PS5. If it’s a PS5 version, it’ll be different.

@Anti-Matter You know you can just delete games and reinstall them whenever you want to play them.

I am not kind of gamer like that !
I don't play one game then delete them after finish.
Since I have realized PS4 and PS5 games will take a lot of storage even for smaller games still between 1 - 5 GB, I have to be aware with my PS4 Slim storage. By knowing the number of GB from specific games, I can calculate how many PS4 games I can play on my PS4 Slim with 500 GB size and which PS4 games that I will play on PS5 machine to save some GB on my PS4 Slim.
I have made a list the PS4 games in physical that I want to buy for upcoming purchase and I have registered more than 60 PS4 games, but as I will have 30 PS4 games in physical, my current storage was 149.9 GB so for the next 30 PS4 games I will buy I have to make sure I can get the games with less than 5 GB for each game with very few games between 5 - 10 GB size. And I have seen the next 30 PS4 games on my list have majority less than 5 GB size and after i got 60 PS4 games, the next PS4 games will be played on PS5 machine or another PS4 machine if I have a chance to get two PS4 machines. I don't want to add external HDD to boost the storage as internal HDD is more durable than external HDD for next 10 years.

@Anti-Matter So you're just going to...stop playing PS4 and PS5 games once you reach the HDD space limit on the respective consoles? That's utterly ridiculous lmao

@LiamCroft
Not stopping playing the games, but I have to limit the games quantity I have made from the list until I can buy another PS4 machine or PS5 machine for bigger GB games like CTR or Crash Bandicoot 4.
And that's why I asked this question to getting know the number of GB size from bigger games like CTR / Crash Bandicoot 4 after being installed and updated on PS5 as for smaller games with size between 1 - 5 GB , I'm not really worried. Also, I'm very selective to pick the games so I'm sure I will still able to collect until 60 PS4 games in physical and I still have adequate storage left.

@Anti-Matter You'd rather buy a second PS4 console than just getting an external hard drive and plugging it in?

@Anti-Matter Please tell me you aren’t buying extra PS4s just for more storage space 😂

You know, I like the Blue color edition of PS4 Slim and if I have a chance to get it, I might buy another PS4 Slim for playing bigger size games.
I already have four 3DS XL machines (2 USA, 1 Japan, 1 PAL) , two PS2 machines (Japan and USA) so why not having two PS4 machines also ? 😏

I got advice from my local game shop owner who was also expert in video games that internal HDD was more durable than external HDD.

@Anti-Matter Of course he would tell you to buy another PS4!

@Anti-Matter Honestly get yourself an external HD, I'm looking to upgrade and add an SSD to my PS5 pretty soon as both my 4tb external and my internal PS5 storage are bursting with gaming goodness!
