Reminder: next-gen console games will be storage hogs Sep 30th 2013, 17:41, by Jared Newman Just how many games will you be able to install on the next generation of game consoles? Not many, if Sony's Killzone: Shadow Fall (shown above) is any indication. The PlayStation 4 exclusive takes up about 50GB of space on the console's hard drive, Eurogamer reports.

The two consoles initially shipped with 20GB of storage and, over the years, new models were introduced with roomier hard drives.
