PS3 are usually 10-50GB, most are about 15GB. but in reality most of the disk is constructed with back up sets of data so it can read faster... I wouldn't honestly trust the actual size of a game unless it is downloadable from the PSN store.

In terms of actual game content most PS3 games will mirror the X360 version (some of them I think have less compressed sound) and it's rare X360 games go over 1 disc (ie 8.5GB)

Actually until they switched to the new XGD3 DVDs (after Halo:Reach?), single disc 360 game DVDs were around 6.8GB max because of security.

Rage which makes use of the new XGD3 DVDs, is the first game that max's out the XGD3 disc @ 7.8GB.

"The maximum space for game data on 360-discs currently stands at 6.8GB with 1GB of the 7.95GB dual layer DVD alloted to anti-piracy and other security measures. Digital Foundry believes the video partition has “either been drastically reduced or omitted completely in the new format Microsoft is looking to roll-out.”" - source

Here's a list of multi-disc 360 games:

Battlefield 3, Blue Dragon, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow, Dead Space 2, Dragon Age Origins: Ultimate Edition, Fallout 3: Game Of The Year Edition, Final Fantasy XIII, Forza Motorsport 3, Forza Motorsport 4, Infinite Undiscovery, L.A. Noire, The Last Remnant, Lost Odyssey, Mafia II Platinum Hits, Magnacarta 2, Mass Effect 2, Mass Effect 3, Max Payne 3, Metal Gear Solid HD Collection, Rage, Star Ocean: The Last Hope, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed Ultimate Sith Edition, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Game of the Year Edition and The Witcher 2.
