All we know is the download data size of MH4 rivals with MH3G/3U. Both games are about 1.7G, but whether it's because they stuffed in a huge number of monster data inside the game, or was that only because we've got a more complicated system eating up all the space is still a mystery. My guess is if they manage to bring back all the known familiar subspecies, then there is a good chance for this game to compete with the older titles. Of course, if they really done that, there might be a chance that the future MH4G gets dubbed as the best game in Monster Hunter history.......(Yeah, we all know that we won't get a new Monster Hunter title before we get terrorized by G-rank quests.)
