First, MGS4 toke up only 30gb of the disk, mainly because of its VERY bad coding, the game was good but the codes were messed up, Second, a single layerd blu-ray takes up 50gb, a double layer takes up to 100gb, so 50gb is not the max for a blu-ray disk.

No, single layer for Blu-ray is 25 gigs, dual is 50GB.  That is currently the max size.

 

 

Isn't there work on a 16 layered 400 gig one?

 

yes there is and it works on the ps3

What was Konami complaining about then about not having enough space on a Blu-ray disk for MGS4?

If I remember correctly they were planning on using uncompressed audio, but it wouldn't all fit.

Personally, I can't tell the difference between uncompressed and compressed audio, so I don't think it really matters.

None, and none, if talking unique content. NJ5 hit the nail on the head already.

Get your facts straight. First off, MGS4 wasn't coded badly....at all. Just because a game is large doesn't equate to bad coding. Someone else already posted in here that the actual "game" is abotu 30GB with some extra space used for loading, but still that's 30GB. Having 7.1 lossless surround sound is bad coding? Native ie not upscaled, 1080p graphics is bad coding? Get on somewhere.

Secondly, a single layer BD is 25GB and a dual is 50GB

Slap yourself

Isn't there work on a 16 layered 400 gig one?

 

yes there is and it works on the ps3

 

There is no proof of it actually being able to work on the PS3, stick to the facts.

Isn't DVD dual-layer significantly slower than single-layer? If the same happens with Blu-Ray, a 16 layer disc must be really slow to read on the existing drives...
