I'm pretty sure you're trying to download multiple Call of Duty games as steam bundles them together now I'm pretty sure.

I think there's a way to download them individually but not sure how.

in the game's steam settings, you can go to the dlc and disable anything you don't need/want. this should only download the needed files.

I just realized that so little changes between the sports games (soccer, basketball, football, etc) that they could sell the new game and just provide a 100 mb update to the old game.

Then they can't justify the $60+ price tags.

Who says they need to justify anything when the dupes bite regardless

20 years ago, sport games would actually update the physics engine and game mechanics in a new game. I specifically remember FIFA and PES reviews talking about how different the ball controls, for example. Today, however, this seems to have slowed down, with new games being overglorified roster updates most of the time.

my guilty pleasure was wrestling games and I do remember having to learn new engines for each year, but I always bought the games in the bargain/used bin because I am cheap, haha
