Oh yea ,,I was just saying it will ship on the 50 GB disk ,,,How big is it?no one know,I guess we have to wait and see untill it comes out,,,but rumor indicates that it is veryy clsoe to 50 GB ,,that's why they are only supporting english as the language,,but it is not confirmed

Noone knows how big it is. But somehow I doubt they went from just pushing 25GB to the game almost doubling in size.


Well, Starcraft, there are a couple points for thought. First off your own link says that the sound "apparently makes the game go way past the 25 GB limit". Important term being "way past". Second thing is that your link is a year ago, so I would contend that in that time they are probably well beyond 26 gigs that was mentioned as a possibility. Third, the rumors that the game will only have one language option due to storage constraints, is just one more bit of evidence that they might be pushing near the 50 gig limit.


But the conversation about putting the game on a double-sided 50GB disk and the confirmation that that would happen from Sony are only about a month old.

Even if that weren't the case, you'd have to admit that this leaks of the kind of publicity stunts Sony pulled with Motorstorm and then later with Heavenly Sword's "10GB of audio."

STARCRAFT, why don'y you just come out and say what you really wanna say and be done with it. Something along the lines of "I don't like the PS3 and will take any negative info about it and blow it out of proportion".

DVD's max read speed is somewhat faster than Bluray, but ONLY when reading the outer part of the disc. Bluray has a constant read speed.

The PS3 has a mandatory hard drive and the 360 does not. The PS3's hard drive is way faster than the 360 12xDVD drive or the PS3's 2xBluray drive. If a dev uses streaming, tons of data can be read from the Bluray drive and temporarily stored on the hard drive during gameplay for MUCH faster access to that data than the 360 can(thanks to the crappy 'core' 360's exsistence).

MGS4 is packing the 50GB disc full and NO, it's not because they replicate data all over the disc. 

I can't wait for MGS4 because it will finally put all this Bullshit to rest. And if it ever comes to 360, it will be a shitty version. Believe it.
