FFXIII is 32.6GB of movies and just 6.8GB of actual game content

I don't know if S-E left content out of the game because of X360 but I really don't see how this debunks that asumption. Game content (whole FF map) is still 6.8gb (limit of X360 Dual-Layer DVD) and If I am correct every disc contains whole FF world. With compression they obviously take couple gigs away but sill we have something like 4gb data to be repeated on every disc so there is about 3gigs of space to fill with compressed cutscenes. S-E's target was 3 DVD's so maybe they left some contet out that they thought was unworthy or maybe they didn't. This is just speculation.

Would this still be the case when there is no backtracking to any locations from chapters 1-10?

 

Maybe the new one will be that we don't have backtracking because of 360?

 

No backtracking would allow them to split up that 6.8GB across the 3 discs instead of needed to repeat data on each disc?

I'm not sure how it all works but i'm taking a stab in the dark here.
