Why? I'm hungry!

Then go with the language you intalled it. Personally I'd hate it if it installed all languages at the same time. Is okay for some games where it'd just replace subtitles and such, but since there's textures, animation data and voice track for all languages that'd end up just getting my game to take up way more space than nescesary if it had to install 4 languages when I only intend to use one.
As it is I'm a bit bothered by how games take up so much space, and then still require the disc in drive even though it won't read any of it, however trivial the data might be. Know it is for access speed everything gets copied, but could be neat if someone actually made something work.
Played Marvel ultimate alliance. 8 GB install. Several hours of gameplay, but would've been good if it'd give me the choice for caching. For starters it'd just install what would be needed for the first couple of missions. As you make progress through those it'd in the background cache in data for the next one and remove data for some you've already passed. Should be an option so people don't get surprised at long load time if they load an older save, but would've been a nice way to preserve space. Chronically out of space people like me would probably also tend to think installing all lanugages at the same time would be a stupid choice.
If anything the installer could've been updated to uninstall the desired files for language and install the new one.
