Size of the game?
Just recently this thought popped into my head. I pre-ordered a copy yesterday night (just over a month to go now  ), and I've just started wondering, as it's a digital download, how big of a download are we looking at here approximately?
Not that it's a problem, I'm just curious.

It's going to be around an 800-900 MB download.

Under a MB, damn.
But, I don't care how big in file size Amnesia is. It's going to be amazing, and being so small will mean it won't take very long at all to download for me. So I can just get to playing it faster.

I lol'd at Scaper XD Imagine if it was 98 bytes *wink* (Oh, I think you meen KB, 'cause b stands for bits) 
But yeah, it's not very often you see a modern game with a size under a GB.

I remember when I bought Aliens Vs. Predators, I looked at the system requirements and the game is 18 GB!
I was like. O.O
