Developers don't really utilise the 50GB disc fully , 10 X the capacity probably won't be needed for the next gen at least.

 

2 that I know of off the top of my head...LBP uses 40 gigs, MGS4 uses 50 gigs..

By 2012, games won't reach 500gigs or even close to that.  All the consoles manufacturers need to do is make sure the console can use UP TO that, and they'll never have to worry about space restrictions for developers.  PS4 and XBOX 720 will probably approach 100 gig games though if I had to guess, especially with a MGS4 taking 50 gigs.  Hideo could have probably packed more onto that disc had he had the space.

Very true Phrancheyez...just think of how long the cut scenes in MGS5 are going to be...

With these new 500GB games we can look forward to uncompressed Music and Graphics, very long movie/cut scenes and 1 or 2 hour long play times which will cost upward of $50+ million to make and will be hailed as the pinnacle of artistic work.
