P.S. 4 DVD's is too much. That stuff really pissed me off with games like FF8 and 9 as well as Legend of Dragoon. If one of the discs gets scratched, you are fucked. Don't even get me started if two of your discs are messed up (that happened to me with FF9).

Multiple disks is not an annoyance to me. If they are for you, they are for you. But how does the whole scratch argument apply? A disk of a single disk game is just as scratch prone.


 So you are saying that based on probability that having to handle 4 discs is less likely to cause one of them to get scratched than just handling one disc?  What about all the time you have to spend pulling out and putting away each of the individual dics, not to mention the fact that games are FAR more likely to pop out of the casing while being stored when their are multiple discs.  Those stupid little plastic flaps in the middle of the DVD case are way more prone to letting go of the disc than the standard holder is.

 And actually, in the case of Blu-Ray there is a scratch advantage, because it has a spray on lining that helps prevent scratch damage.  Don't believe me?  Go look at the videos online on Youtube of people scratching their discs with STEEL WOOL and then playing them in their PS3 with no problems.


 Jeez kid, back off the caffiene, are you a door to door salesman for Sony or something? Cause I'm not buyin' any, lol (J/K). Blu-Ray would be a wonderful option if it didn't require installation or oodles of redundant data to eliminate the hideous loading times, its a compromise like anything. Enjoy your steel wool though, I like many others will be enjoying lost odyssey.
