It has to be, but they could have worded it better and I quote "Players can optionally disable the Visual Sounds in the options menu, but are encouraged to keep them on, as all the sounds in the game are being removed to make room on the playersÂ’ hard drives for the new Visual Sound graphics. "
Thats the joke. lol Good work devs, good work. But you gonna have to try ahrder than that to get us.
