Just like the Super Smash Brothers Brawl disk

I wonder if all the cutscenes will also have that strange ten-second loading period before they start playing?

This deserves to be in that "Halo reach is better than X thread".

I know were joking but seriously, how can Bungie fit a 720p game with all that content in a dual layer dvd but Metroid Other M has difficulty doing it?

This is a serious question, is it simply bad compression techniques or something?

The definitive evidence that video games turn people into mass murderers

My guess is piracy and loading times.

Tease.
