I think the storage combined with the powerful PCs we can make will allow for some amazing games. As for it becoming a trend, not for while yet I would think, I don't know anyone who has an inbuilt Bluray drivers for their PC, their still a bit expensive. When they become more common though, it will be good to see what results we can get for future PC games.

 

It doesn't matter really. DVDs are dirt cheap, it doesnt matter if your game is on one or 20 DVDs. BluRay will have absolutely no effect for PC games, just like the DVD had no effect for PC games over CDs.

I dunno about that. Six+ CD games where pretty rare. 6+ DVD games will likely also be rare.

In the end DVD allowed for bigger datasets being used for games cheaply. Cheaper than putting it on CD's anyway. Blu Ray might do the same in the end.

 

 

UT2004. PC developers are never worried about how big their games are. They can always put in another CD or DVD for less than a dollar more.
