Forums - Sony - Why are PS3 games so big!?

Signalstar on 15 July 2012

I'm sensing an issue here. Are you really mad the games are too big or are you just feeling a bit small in comparison.

Because audio is uncompressed on PS3, and games like Uncharted 3, Killzone 3, GT5 etc. are huge because they're 3D, if the KZ3 demo is still on the Store, check the size of the 2D version then check the size of the 3D version.

I checked, the 2D and 3D Killzone 3 demos are the exact same size.

I can't confirm it. But I read the 3D demo allows you to play in either 2D or 3D.

UC3 I think is 45gb, because the 3D version of the cutscenes are just vids stored in uncompressed 720p quality in the Bluray. The same goes with KZ3.    The PS3 is powerful, but to render that kind of graphics TWICE would make it explode XD.

I don't think there are 2D and 3D versions of videos on UC3.

Gears of War 3 for example has 3D. But I can't imagine they're storing 2D and 3D videos on a single DVD.

If that is the case, then I dont know why UC3 takes so much data.   I guess that is also the case with KZ3?
