Ah, OK.
Patches are fine. It's just that I think devs/pubs/platform holders have become a bit reliant on them. "Fuck it, get it out the door. We'll patch it later." 5GB on day one is a fucking joke. If it's that broken, don't burn it to disc yet.

I imagine that's mainly the publishers, with a bit of the platform holders. As I understand it, devs would release late most of the time, I'd they could. Of course, then people would be moaning about that, instead.
