@zarx: Ok, so there is no cause for alarm, it's just an exageration from Square-Enix.

Most games today actually are under 7.4GB and the added cost of using larger media alone will be enough reason not to go bigger that 50GB next gen let alone creating the content, Final Fantasy and a few Sony first party will probably be it for pushing past 50GB.

Don't forget Kojima with Metal Gear, he also likes to make movies.

IMO, this has nothing todo with movies, they'll stays the same size. However, they are probably intend to capitalize on next gen consoles Graphic capiilities, using bigger textures and cutting on varios cost factors, which will increase required space...

The MaLDoHD mod that adds more HD textures to Crysis 2 that makes it look like this 

vs the origonal (note not the same area)

With over 1000 new textures ways in at just 808MB
