Physical copies of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II contain a paltry amount of data, according to screenshots shared by early owners online that can confirm the disc only features 72.23 MB of data. Appropriately described by some as a huge waste of plastic, players who opt for the physical, disc-based release should prepare for what could be lengthy download times, as Infinity Ward’s shooter now weighs in at 150 GB following its latest pre-release update. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II will officially be released tomorrow on October 28 following a pre-order promotion that granted early access to its Campaign mode, which sees Task Force 141 facing off against PMCs and drug cartels.

What a waste of digital resources.
Sounds about right. Why bother putting anything other than the Battle.Net installer when you know it's going to get a massive Day 0 patch anyway.
