I doubt it. They'll compress the shit out of it.

Do they mean single layer or double layer blu-ray.
If it doesn't fit on a 54gb blu-ray disc then I'm out anyway for a steam version with my 40gb cap.

There's no way they fill that much data with textures, maybe they have loads of 1080p pre-rendered video.
50gb is over 12 thousand 3888x2592 pictures. I don't see that much variety in a doom game...


ID Tech 5 is a very texture heavy engine when making environments so it's not that surprising, their aim is making no 2 environments the same yet able to deliver top performance, it doesn't work anywhere close to something like UE and is also very different from CE. What I want to see is a Fallout game with that engine on PC, it'd be amazing.

It was fine on PC so I don't know what you are talking about. Game literally made people jump in the dark.

It was the first game with real time shadows and per pixel hit detection. All the little things like that are what made it absolutely awesome.

I have 2.5 TB of hard drive space and about to grow. Challenge accepted.

Read the article again. misintepretation indeed. Simply put possibly more content for the ps3 version owing to bluray size..that is all.

That would be great, I'm tired of all the copy paste rooms and corridors. Most fps seem to be made by randomly copying, flipping and mirroring a couple of templates and stick them back to back.

A fallout world where there is always something new to see around the next hill, yes please.
