I'm honestly starting to get a little pissed off at this ''multiple discs'' bullshit.

Back when I had a PSOne I used to consider games on multiple discs to be special somehow. MGS, FFVII/VIII/IX/GT2/RE2... Even on the Gamecube I liked REmake's 2 disc package.

Now, I might've been 12/16 years old respectively, but back then no-one made a big deal about something as trivial as multiple discs.

AAAAARRRRGGGHHHH! IT'S A NON-ISSUE!

This is coming from someone who loves his shiny Blurays and his PS3 btw.

but it doesn't scratch, and has all this space and makes my games look awsumer unless its made by a 3rd party pub.! god i love sarcasm.

i agree its such a non-issue. as long as everyone gets the full game then who cares.

Actually that's a major bonus for me as I can just leave a pile of discs lying next to my ps3 and not worry about it.

Thing is, no-one mentions that aspect of it. And besides, we've been making due with scratchable discs all these years anyway.



The longer this gen is, the more powerful the next-gen consoles will be. And since the games still look nice to my eyes, I'm willing to wait another 2 years for something truly impressive.



Why would they do that when they are still selling large amount of hardware at a profit, selling tons of software, and making an absolute killing of Xbox Live subscriptions.

Don't get me wrong they will need a new console but not for another two years or so, same with the PS3. If either Sony or MS release earlier than that it would be a pretty damn big error IMO the market wouldn't support them.

eh I disagree. I enjoy this prolonged gen. The longer I can go without having to buy a new console the better imo. Yes, the consoles for this gen are starting to show their age graphically, 360 a little more so, but I could careless. If graphics were the most important thing to me I would have a gaming PC right now. If up to me I wouldn't release a new Xbox until 2014.

yea i'm still partial to 2020.  http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=107345&page=1

I agree. The more Sony and MS keep this gen going the more support they will get next gen.

@Dr. Grass
Exacty. In addiction to more powerful hardware it will also be cheaper to build which means less cost effective to MS and Sony.

i've heard that before. 

really that was about (ps3) pricing and the cost of game development. its not a bad idea considering for one we know ps3 will still be on the market in 2020.
