Your title should say "Rumor:" first.

And even if it was, then OMG!!! the world is ending. What will we do? Gran Turismo has been on multiple disks in the past too, IIRC.

It's not that hard to understand. Half the content on one disc and the other half on the other disc. I'm amazed some fanboys are actually so delusional to think or say that they'll have to switch discs in the middle of a race. It's truly gotten to pathetic times on the damage control front.

Big deal. MGS4 had 3 minute installs in between each act. Isn't that the same as changing disks?

Hmm no a HDD in every 360 would have been enough to avoid this situation.

if movement is an issue then sure i would complain.

in terms of fitness friendly, the consoles go wii>360>ps3

i prefer physical setbacks to hardware related ones.

and i wouldn't be surprised if they put multiplayer on one disc and sp on the other or something.

It's been brought up many times. I'm still amazed that some people can't change a disc. It was alright before, but now it's a hassle. How lazy have some become that they can't get off the couch for a second and switch out a disc? The damage control is through the roof on this one.

So would there be "Disc 1" and "Disc 2" lobbies online? Sure, GT 2 was two discs, but it wasn't online. Maybe they can just have single player only tracks and cars.

there was already an epic discussion about this

it's simple

you dn't need the ENTIRE 2 disks

so

you put all the cars and pysics and everything else on both disks

then share the tracks between them. end.

Oh I see I didnt know much about that.

So ya as it stands forza 3 has failure written all over it due to the casual nature of the 360.If multi-disc automatic failure,if not multi-disc still a failure due to only as much content as forza 2 and nothing new.

What the hell are you talking about?

This is NOT your usual disc change.This is much more annoying.Imagine I wanna play a track and find out it's on the other disc,you are telling me it's not annoying?Then I change the disc and then want to ride a car and found out that it's on the other disc?LOL pathetic.

And no all cars and tracks wont be on one disc otherwise the game may as well be on one disc.

I don't know about you, but I do not feel like changing disk for tracks that suppose to be in one disk. There is no track that is worth pausing the game and swiping the disk. That takes the whole atmosphere and ruins the momentum.

You didn't play Grand Turismo 2 did you, one disk for simulation the other for arcade/multiplayer. Stop this instigating, it's really tiring.

laps one and two will be on disc one and then lap 3 will be on disc two then the final lap will be on disc one again..... (same rules apply for online... and you have to wait untill every other player has changed discs to continue the race)

:lol:

sadly i really do love the forza series.... i think that they should have poeople install some of those items onto a harddrive or offer it as free DLC ANYTHING but two discs

Good job on missing out on those posts. It's been said, fact. I have enough weight here and enough people know I don't make up BS, so yes, it's been said.

Onto the 2 disc part. It was already said by the PGR team that they had issues with PGR4. Welcome to the world of HD, which fills a lot more disc space.

It's been brought up many times. I'm still amazed that some people can't change a disc. It was alright before, but now it's a hassle. How lazy have some become that they can't get off the couch for a second and switch out a disc? The damage control is through the roof on this one.

What the hell are you talking about?

This is NOT your usual disc change.This is much more annoying.Imagine I wanna play a track and find out it's on the other disc,you are telling me it's not annoying?Then I change the disc and then want to ride a car and found out that it's on the other disc?LOL pathetic.

And no all cars and tracks wont be on one disc otherwise the game may as well be on one disc.

You have no idea how the data is going to be split up between the discs. There is NO way they are going to make you switch discs back and forth while playing they game. Like EVERY game before, they would find some break that would separate the data, like the second half of career mode, or a different mode all together.

And all of that, is a HUGE "IF" the game is even going to be on 2 discs, which is completely speculation at this point.
