Yes, Microsoft uses dedicated space for firmware, DRM, localized error messages and such. The 360 can thus store well over 20% less game data on DVD than a PS2.

Yeah because PS2 discs don't need a file system right?

My bad, I forgot the PS2 and PS3 were magical systems.

 

You guys keep talking of filesystems. Doesn't the 360 use iso9660 as your usual DVDs? I was under the impression that it simply reserved some space for security and other systems stuff.
