And now for an all amazing post where I do all of the following:

Bump this thread (It's pinned, I know!! It's a damned joke. LAUGH!)
Let various viewers knows what exactly has changed.

Anyways, updates to the guide (Since bumping already occured by the time you read this.)!
Dec 18th, 2003

Updated Brute Force and Ty the Tasmanian Tiger with luke.luke1's findings on PAL50/PAL60/NTSC.
Fixed Crimson Skies notes, as it appears I stopped mid sentence with an incomplete idea.
Added games Broken Sword - The Sleeping Dragon and Blowout upping the space saved to 16.38 GB.
Moved deletion log files on my HDD to a structure which I can use XML/ASP to build them. This will make tracking things easier for me. You, the user, will just have to enjoy the idea I spend less time building this list.

Good job!

I'd love some info on deletions for Project Gotham Racing 2, SSX3, Tony Hawk Underground, Prince of Persia 2, Top Spin

Thanks

Caracarn, most of those games are on the way. I've even been sent a PM detailing what can be deleted from PGR2, but as I don't have an actuall copy myself, I'd like to know the retail size. Not really needed, but I'm wierd in they way I like to keep stats on some things.

I'll just need to format the post, and I'll plaster it up there!
So consider this an update:

Project Gotham Racing 2 added.

. I do not own every game out there. However, if others feel safe rooting through other games I don't have up yet, feel free to let me in on any info you find.

Anyways, I plan on getting one or more games up... At least before tommorow when I go comatose from not eating.

Damn. I knew I'd forget something massively stupid.

Anyways, here are a few things.
X-Gamer program. Somewhat out of date.

XBox Game Size webpage that is fairly old.
XBox Game Size program available here. Appears to be the same age(read: out of date) as the above link.

Post found in the Evox forums?? Doesn't detail everything, but it's a decent.

This post has gime sizes for PGR2, THUG, NSFU, The GTAs, and True Crime

and Amped 2

Updates:

Finishing up my XML/XSLT based post builder. "It looks pretty!" *barf*
Fixed notes for "ATV Quad Power Racing 2" as it just didn't make sense.
Added estimated space saved of 1772 MB on PGR2 based on rip size from jumbee159. This ups total space saved to 19.9 GB

That's it for what I'm guessing will be four days or more. Hope you guys enjoy xmas, and all else there is.

What exactly does "Deleted .xbe's are due to backup/XBL NON-interactivity" mean?

No positive but i think its the files you use to log onto XBLive. there is no need for them since you can use live with a copied game. deleting them saves a few megs so I would suggest doing it because its so simple to do.

ok site isnt updated but uploaded XBOX Game Size Editor v1.7

"remove those extra files" option
