lol it was last time i checked, they may have found a way to make it smaller by now... although steam may have struck a deal with Rockstar to make the setup process easier with their download. I've downloaded quite a few things off steam and pretty much the second it finishes downloading, you can play it - no entering cdkeys or waiting for it to install files...

I highly doubt it will be smaller, It may even be larger now, they might of released patches for the game. Steam is a great idea and does work well.

Some guy has already invited a way that you can play games from websites without downloading them. For example Gta 4. Saw it on youtube once.

there was a system called Onlive where you do something with your pc / tv and you can play games streamed from a server, as in it streams the video to you kinda like youtube except u can use the arrow keys on your keyboard...

it was met with heavy critisism especially at the fact the servers had to be less than 200kms away to be effective, and it would require a massively powerful server to be able to run modern games for several thousands of users...

Currently playing a game called Project Reality. Its a Military Simulator based on the Bf2 engine.

For people with a bit more patience and a passion for Military "stuff" its awsome.
