Don't get me wrong I love the 360 games I currently have but dammit I love epic games. Blue dragon is right up my alley... its 3 disks. Or imagine dead rising....... spanning the length of that small colorado town.

 

I don't know but anything that makes my dreams closer to reality is a great thing.

I would like to see how much space Blue Dragon is using on those anime FMV scenes they put in that game. One thing about multi-disc games is that just because it is a 3 disc game doesn't mean it is 27 gigs of data. Usually half or more of each disk is repeated data from the previous discs (music, the need to go into same areas). For example FF7 the game was really 200 megs repeated 3 times, then the rest was stacked FMVs and other goodies.

This can depend on the game because perhaps you will not need to revisit old areas, or perhaps they will use different music.

 How big was FF9? FF7 was almost a launch game. It was a 1st gen PS1 game tho.
