I thought so! So at least maybe it won't suffer like GTA IV/ RDR did 

Could you please quote it because I looked as well and couldn't find it.

You started it. You said "twist that!"  So I just answered truthfully.  If you cannot take it, that's your problem.  Point the finger at yourself first.

I hope not, I traded in Crysis 2 to get this game. Of course only because trading a game towards a L.A. Noire preorder resulted in an additional 25% trade in credit. L.A. Noire will only cost me ~$20-25.

Well, it was a PS3 exclusive before and now it's a multiplatform game but the x360 version is leading in pre orders. This is significant because we can clearly see that exclusives aren't really a good thing if you want good sales.

i cant remmeber how many disks ff7 was (i think three so ill go with that) so between all the disks they ended up having a maximum capacity of about 2.1gb the zip folder may be compressing it down to what youre seeing it as, or there were other concerns that square had that lead to it being three disks, but thats all irrelevant. the example in the second paragraph stands as an example of where developers had to make data redundant across disks

Now you have 2 reasons for why it's significant. :)

Wow, this thread is bad, people need to put a bit of research in before saying silly things. It took like seven pages before anyone could even figure out how much a 360 disk takes up, people keep forgetting the PS3 version is the lead platform and it's the only platform the game has been previewed on, some guy (obvious) likes to pretend that all PS3 games have mandatory installs and has glissfully forgetten that the PS3 is practically the only console with games that have no load times, Slimebeast was confused, people start bringing up pre-orders into a technical discussion thread, some guy accidently let out a fanboy quip by saying that as as long as it's a single player game, then it should be good on the PS3 (an obvious troll against the PSN incident, he made a similar remark in another thread) and not one post has been about the actual game.

OT: Game looks like some good shit! Maybe gonna pick it up on PS3, the disk issue has been a minor annoyance in the past (Mass Effect 2, Dead Space 2, Lost Odyseyy and a 20GB hard drive)and if it can be avoided, then it will be avoided. Still have a bad history with Rockstar, but since they didn't develop the game, the engine and pretty much have no hand in it's overall development, then I guess it should be perfectly fine and not a turd.

There is a big speculation in your first paragraph and I can't take it as an argument because you can't prove that, it's just what you think/believe. The fact is: It was a PS3 exclusive and now it's selling better on the x360.

Yes, there are great deal of exclusive franchises (like GTA & Microsoft) but it will never give you more money than "versions for all consoles" because your game will be able to be popular on all consoles and then you can release DLC, sequels and updates (like Super Street Fighter IV), you will have a larger userbase for your game/franchise and earn even more money. If you take the GTA & Microsoft case and do the math  you will realise that an exclusive deal won't give you more money than release on all platforms, you will see that 50 millions isn't enough.

Basically, he has an answer to your question and I have one too (which is different), but I don't know why you are acting this way. :)

Incorrect Information: Rockstar isn't Making LA  Niore, Team Bondi is. correct your facts next time. 

Does it even make a difference thar 3 DL DVD have more space than a single layer BD? that's why we hae DL BD's you know?
