Considering the PS5's Kraken compression, how big are we expecting the PS5 version of GT7 to be?
Gran Turismo 7 Game Size?

North of 100 gb wouldn't surprise me, but we'll have to wait and see for an exact size.

The extra scapes location will probably add like 15gbs and if it's anything like GT sport, it'll get bigger after each update.

Could use an external HDD if you're willing to wait longer.

Nah I'll be fine with storage for now, it's because I have GT Sport which takes up like 125gb so once 7 comes out I'll delete it.

Well that's the quoted expected size on PS5. GT7 on PS4 will definitely be significantly larger than GT Sport (I wouldn't be surprised if it's COD-like, and PS4 users are expected to face the long copying times whenever updates are around), and with the compression on the PS5, that's how it came to be.
After all, besides COD, a Gran Turismo game on PS4 or PS5 can be a total monster of a game in terms of file size. It's just going to get bigger and bigger whenever they add in new cars, tracks, campaign races and other features through updates, to the point where at the end of the game's lifespan, it will be around 200GB.

This is the store page the article links to. Unless I'm going blind I can't see any reference to the file size?

How "briefly" and when? There's been no changes between the last cached version at 0654 UTC today and the last Archive.org page at 0308 UTC on January 16, and the current version.
So twistedvoxel wrote that article based on someone on the subreddit rather than actually seeing it themselves then, and without evidence.
Also I had to laugh whilst checking the GT sub, reminded me why I don't go there any more.
An actual human being wrote that, 100% seriously. The mind truly boggles.

Oh, well that person doesn't actually confirm they personally saw it then, just that it isn't there now after they read the article. So apparently only twistedvoxel saw it. Odd.

At any rate, I plan to uninstall GT Sport when I get GT7, as the latter will very likely render the former entirely obsolete. It's not unlike comparing GT3 to GT4, where the latter is deemed superior to its predecessor by almost all accounts. I cannot see there being any reason to keep GT Sport installed on my PS4 whatsoever.

And since there's a mention about PlayStation Direct talking about the size of the PS4 version in the replies:
While it only hints at minimum storage size, this also confirms that the PS4 version will have an install and play disc.PlayStation Direct

*Without day one patch. Still could be a little larger, but the day one patch is yet to be seen. I'm guessing the game's about to get gold soon?
Hopefully we don't need to download Scapes again like in GT Sport.

The sizes from that site are often based on inaccurate data too. They don't usually match the finished product.
