I know, its just an example. All the people saying Killzone 2 needs bluray since the levels are 2gb - maybe its because shit is uncompressed. |
well they cant compress it, the game is going to have constant streaming of media from the disc, compressing it would make the framerate become unstable easily. Remember GTA:SA, it takes up all 8.5GB, the game is totally uncompressed because it has a continues stream feature. So figure if they made it one giant plane like in GTA:SA the game would take up way more then 50GB. So they are still having a level based system but having it stream different sections of the maps together instead of having to have a retardedly long load time even if you had some textures installed to the HDD.
