How's that deter from the gameplay again? This probably won't be a non-linear game so it doesn't matter too much, OUR THE Lost Odyssey will not be affected.

Not a problem in the slightest, probably all due to CG movies. As well a bonus to having multiple discs is that its a simple way to tell how far you are in a game and how much is left.

The saddest part is this is only year 2 of the Xbox 360

Year 3/4 = 5-6 or more discs?!?!

I'll gladly pay Sony $50 more than the 360 for 1 disc games with extra maps etc and HD blu-ray movies

There are many Blu-ray games that are shorter than DVD-9 games and graphically look pretty much identical. Enjoy those multiple languages. DVD-9 FTW! :D

Yeah but this is a 40 hour game minimum. Heavenly Sword is a 5 hour game and it takes up an entire Blu-Ray. If it had as much gameplay as Lost Oddyssey it would require GASP a total of 8 COUNT 'EM 8 Blu-rays!!1!

In this case, yes.

More data and a more fully developed gameplay experience might be.

But on a competitor platform, the entire game would fit on one disc. So it's data that gives a game value, not discs per se.

I don't know how this news could possibly be interpreted as a positive thing for the 360 platform.

the only reason why it needs so many discs is thatjapaneese put too much not in-game movies in it...

edit: If it would be atleast 2(actually 3.5-4)times what Mass Effect would be even I would buy it with its crappy combat system... but it probably wont...

They'll push, but not that far.

A quad layer Blu-ray disc can fit 100 GB of data. That's almost twice the amount that can fit on the PS3's harddrive itself.

Sakaguchi needs to learn that CGI cut scene is waste of money.

Why bother with CGI cut scene when you can just make in-game cut scene that would look almost as good, but wouldn't take as much space and give you more flexibility?

I'm pretty sure in-game cut scene also costs less to develop for.

He is way too stubborn with pre-rendered cut scene, as if he is trying to prove that Spirits Within wasn't a bad idea and Square did need that technology.

I don't even think you can call that logic. There are so many things wrong with what he just said I don't even want to bother refuting his point.

No need to defend blu-ray,the next generation DVDof choice.

But c'mon. If you're going to defend DVD9, which is responsible for day/nighttracks cut out of PGR4, the reason why Square chose PS3 over360 for FFXIII, less maps in UT3 and Gears of War and multiple disc RPGs, and whoknows what else we don't know about at least try and use sane excuses, instead of GREAT! 4 DVDs is a GREAT value! LOL indeed.

Face it, blu-ray is awesome. DVD9 isn't

If they want to "downgrade" the audio and not make it region free, then probably won't happen. But, if they want to keep the best audio quality they want from the PS3 and put multiple languages in it, then it will happen.

I agree, how can anyone actually say, seriously, that you would rather have the same game on four disks than on the same one.

I mean not caring if its on one disk or four is one thing, but prefering four instead of one, you cant be serious.

That's fine, but I think most would agree that a box set of four DVD's for one rpg in the year 2008 is a bit archaic.

I don't think we really care, as long as we play it. We wouldn't go "Oh nah I perfer 4 over 1" but more so "Its not that important" Thou I do like the feeling after you beat 10 hour disc, and continue on.
