It literally takes ten seconds to pop the disc out and put in another one.

You must be like jabba the hut if this is too much movement for you.

Okay but I don't like it and I'd rather not have it, having to swap around 3 discs in 2011 isn't ideal

Nor is not having a functional online service

Epic win!

Yeah DVD is really starting to show it's age

TintedEyes
Small price to pay for having faster load times. Blu Ray is still slow as hell. DVD is starting to show it is age?

yeah, having to have so many multiplat disc to hold current games is showing age

Wasn't asking you a question. I was pointing out your messed up grammar. The PS3 having slower load times isn't showing any age?

Swapping discs in the middle of gameplay isn't a big deal in the larger scheme of things...

It's just that as a PC gamer I find it so.. odd. I havent' ahd to do that since .. I don't know, 1989. Hell, even looking for a disc, or changing discs to play game son my PC hasn't happenned since mid 2000's, thanks to DD.

It feels super retro and just wrong to me. But I can see it not being a big deal to people who have to do it every once in a while.

So you mean I will have to get up twice over the course of the game?!? OMG when will the madness end? This gen sucks because now I have to stand up walk a couple feet to my 360 and then walk a few feet back to sit down again but the worst part is I have to do it again around 10 hours later...grrr. Standing up is for newbs.

Are you going to be playing LA Noire forever? No. 30 seconds to change disks during the course seems less inconvinent than having no online for 3 weeks and your information out in cyberspace seeing as you're so concerned about how annoying the disk swap is. ;)

Because its not the PS3 I'm guessing

Yep.

Comment from Kotaku:

"how about living through early computer gaming? Constant disk swapping and flipping. More epic games came on tons of floppies (King's Quest VI came one 12!). 3 DVDs? That's child's play."

Puts it into perspective doesn't it.

Disc swapping is not a big deal. I played through Mass Effect 2 twice and I survived.

Maybe this signals a much onger campaign than RDR. Or... maybe one disk is SP, one disk is some kind of MP and another is like a developer extras disk.

Damn it! Don't they know that I'm too fat to get up and change the disk! It also waste 5 or so seconds of my life! :cry:

:roll:

Yeah it's not a big deal at all. How the hell can a game like La Noire take 3 disks anyways? >_>

like jump on one leg, rub tooth paste on your console, put your disk in a zip lock bag, and then put it inside.

AncientDozer

I actually say a prayer first before I can progress and do any of those things--then placing a drop of holy water is ideal, then I proceed with the toothpaste. All in all, it's not too much of a hassle, I still manage to complete it all while a PS3 game is doing a mandatory install.......

La Noire is one of very few games on multiple discs this gen. Mass effect 2 is one of those games and I never found any problem swapping discs.

[QUOTE="Kinthalis"]I laughed. Hard. Do some consolites actually think this way? That's like a blind person saying "Colors are overrated! Blind is good. It makes blacks, REALLY dark"Kinthalis

Consolites? Do some pc gamers actually think this way? Anyways have fun playing the 0 disc pc version. You know pc gaming is in the dumps when doesn't even get an adventure game that could be easily ported.

Oh that's ok. you cna keep your Uncanny Valley sim.

I'll be too busy playing the Witcher 2 to bother with a crappy console game anyway. :p

If L.A. Noire was a pc exclusive the pc elitist crowd here would be calling it the greatest pc adventure game of all time. The Witcher 2 is going to consoles, the first wasn't anything special and the controls could have been easily mapped to a 360 controller.

I still find it funny that consolers don't see the irony.

What's one fo the first thing consolites will complain about when ti comes to PC gmaing?

"It's such an effort! I have to update drivers!"

Uhhh, Updating your video drivers takes 1 minute out of every 6 months of your life.

How much time do you spend swapping discs, during play or just in between games? I don't know what the average figure is, but I bett it's hundreds of times larger than that 1 minute every 6 months.

People look for any excuse to decry the opposition. Certainly disk swapping is a minor nuisance but is it anything to write home about? Not unless you have to do some convoluted stuff on the side like jump on one leg, rub tooth paste on your console, put your disk in a zip lock bag, and then put it inside.

AncientDozer

Thats just if your 360 RROD's while you're swapping disks ...

If anything it only shows that blu-ray is already dead and outdated if it can't even beat the DVD

poor sony, will they ever get one thing right?

caseystryker

Why wait the 5-10 or more minutes for it to install? Why fill up the hard drive? How do you think 20, 40, 60 and 80GB owners feel when they play 30 or 40 PS3 games over the years, and then they have to delete data in order to play more games?

I expect DVD in its current form to leave the console market, but I don't ever see it leaving the PC retail front. DD is the future. :]Stevo_the_gamer

DD is the future yes, as in 2020. But until then the disc format will remain supreme, Blu-ray FTW.
