This makes sense, handling seven disks for MGS4 alone would be a nightmare...


But that would make codec calls with Otacon very interesting xD

OTACON: "Hey Snake, remember last time on Shadow Moses? You have to change your disk...oh wait, lol BluRay."

SNAKE: "But Otacon, this is a Xbox360, not a Playst---totally unrelated gaming console..."

OTACON: "Aww, sucks..." (Watch None Piece on youtube for reference)


OTACON: Hey, Snake! Time to--

SNAKE: Yeah, yeah, I know. This is the fourth time you tell me.

OTACON: Awww man, I was just helping :(

 

The "Psycho Mantis" battle should be interesting too xDDDDD

Didn't you have to use Sixaxxis in this battle? I need to steal the PS3 from the living rom and pop this game in again...

Someone must have cashed in the bet. Poor Selnor.

Oh well, I can live without MGS. Just bought Peace Walker or something like that and it really isn't my cup of tea.

But you could copy all of them on the HDD before starting the game, so the ridiculous between chapter installs would be gone.


Also it would need less than 7 discs. They just calculated a 50GB Blu-Ray - a 8GB 360 disc = 6,25.
This release of MGS4 (anniversary edition) is 30GB, so 3.75 discs would be needed.

Remove some languages and compress video and audio (which is always done anyway) and it would easily fit on 3 discs.



EDIT: But that's okay, it's their decision. If they don't think it would be worth it to port the game then we can't do anything. Though there is at least hope for NextBox.
Though it doesn't bother me since I own the game on PS3.


That's probably what he means by too much work.

 

OT: MGS 4 has some references that wouldn't make sense on the 360.

Let's not forget MGS1.

What exactly is in MGS4 that would warrant it needing 7 DVDs to do?  Does doing prerendered cut scenes instead of using an ingame engine, mean THAT much space gets taken up?  I played through MGS4 and still wonder about this.

We both know it doesn't work this way.

Not necesarily, but more like what he says afterwards =P
