What I find funny is the original CVG article never mentions anything like "Thanks to the storage capacity of Blu-Ray...". That was added on the PS3 Fanboy site as an obvious jab at 360. The truth is, this is pretty common place when a game is released on another console a year after it's original release. Fight Night had more content on PS3 than 360, Virtua Fighter 5 had more content on 360 than PS3. That is basically the apology for not having it as soon as the other guy. I highly doubt a game like Overlord was maxing out an HD-DVD when Mass Effect fits on one disc. That article is nothing but spin.

With that out of the way, it's nice it's coming to PS3, and with the added content to boot.

As stated, the 360 does not use HD DVD's for games. And indeed DVD is about 9GB, but we don't know how much space the game by itself takes up, and then add on to that the downloadable content. So it might be less that 9GB, but chances are it's more, in which case a Blu-ray disc has an advantage.

DVD-9 has about 8.54 GB of storage.
