Don't top line blu-rays manage to store even more than 50GB?

Up to 128gb I think

Indeed, there are discs with 100 and 128GB and are called BDXL.

I wonder how much of that needed space will go for the game, and how much for the CGIs.

In December 2008, Pioneer Corporation unveiled a 400 GB Blu-ray Disc (containing 16 data layers, 25 GB each) that will be compatible with current players after a firmware update. Its planned launch is in the 2009–10 time frame for ROM and 2010–13 for rewritable discs. Ongoing development is under way to create a 1 TB Blu-ray Disc as soon as 2013.

Wow. I wonder how much one of those discs could cost.
