Subject: Why is the Skyrim DOWNLOAD version 3 gigabytes? But the disc versions

But why is the disc version, 6-8 gigabytes? Why? And does anyone know if the Xbox Live Download version of Skyrim has more problems than the disc version? And is the Xbox Live Download version the full complete game, and can it recieve title updates and DLC?

I like how your sub box is full of science and political videos but your recommendations are full of anime girls kissing each other.

Just Zoid being Zoid ^_^

Are you downloading a compressed version of Skyrim on the PC?

It is most likely compressed, as well as the fact most of that 6-8 gb is just reading information that all xbox's posses. It need be there or else the xbox couldn't read it from the disc.

But you don't need to download it as when you install it to your hard-drive that information is installed along with it.

No it's the 60 bucks Skyrim download on XBOX LIVE. I'm not downloading it yet, but the memory on the download is like 3 gigabytes. So I want to know if the download is the full game, and can it recieve title updates and DLC, and does it have alot of problems like crashing??????????????????
