Then it'll be 6 DVDs for DVD5 version and 4 DVD9s for DVD9 version.

That's an assumption though, since i intentionally installed every damn DLC to see the max. final size.

"Two thumbs up" REVO!
What about bluray SL (25gb) or even DL (50gb), since i got a (Lite on) bluray burner, REVO?
Thanks in advance!

My sizes for the installed games are as follows:

- 10800 MB for ME1
- 17000 MB for ME2
- 14000 MB for ME3 (without the Omega DLC that isn't released yet).

Note that I removed any and all voice files I did not need! While ME1 is extra careful to install only the language you choose, ME2 is far less accurate, ESPECIALLY with DLCs, so one needs to do MAJOR cleanup in order to trim down the size. ME3 complicates the process even more since the DLCs are packed into SFAR files which have a separate editor. Once it's gotten ahold of, you need to remove ALL *.afc and *.pcc files that have language prefix other than desired. Be careful to not remove afcs/pccs that aren't language-relevant! :P

I also have Multiplayer DLC's with ME3, in ME2 the size i put is accurate, i also have every DLC, including bonuses etc.

Apart from this, the sizes are approx. values since we cant enter bytes in setup, more importantly, ME3 will have DLCs so total size will change for collection.

Finally, i never install 45GB of game to 50 GB freespace HDD. Size is exist to give you idea about installation, they're not precise, they'll never precise.
