I think the game will work like this, on both systems we have i don't know, 4 chapter, on ps3 every time you change chapter you make a new installation and in 360 you change the disc. I'll get the 360 versions because swap disc is faster than HDD instalation.

 

huh?

If a 360 games requires installs and disc swapping to backtrack and/or progress it automatically means the PS3 version will work similar to Metal Gear Solid 4.

Didn't you know this?

 

 

I know that. I was referring to the PS3 part.

I don't play MGS4 cuz I'm not into the series, so does that game have these so called "multi-chapters" that require you to install every part of it or is it a 1-time only installation just like the others? Cuz that's what I don't understand at his statement just like justinian...

On MGS4 every time you go to other chapter you make a new installation that require 10 minutes, FFXIII will use at least 40gb and we can estimate 4 chapters of 10 gb on hd and 4 dvds on x360. Probably there will be like this because they have to remember that who bought the ps3 in the realese possibly was thinking on FFXIII that was exlcusive that time and many people bought the 20 gb version.  Just like I said Disk swaping is faster than HDD installation.

 



@invetedlotus123

oh IC, tnx. Disk space is not really a problem and I doubt it will require to re-install when backtracking for quests or whatever



 

360. I love disk swapping, gives me time to go make a coffee in between story acts.
