6 TB? I call BS on it. Why would that much be needed for gaming? All they need is a faster blu-ray drive on the ps4. Blu-ray can already supposedly hold up to 200gb or so which is waaaay more than enough for gaming

not enough for uncompressed data. Wow, imagine developing games. Compression? Fuck that.

Who cares? The stuff that is compressed (audio and video, mostly) has virtually no quality loss from the compression (no matter how many PS3 fanatics tell us they can tell MGS4 uses uncompressed audio... on their crappy TV speakers).

 

takes time to compress data doesn't it?

Mmm yes but on the other hand, with uncompressed data developers have more data to carry around, needing more hard drive space, etc.
