Metal Gear Solid 4 Too Big For Blu-ray

Metal Gear Solid 4 Too Big For Blu-ray

Everyone knows the Hideo Kojima, the brains behind the Metal Gear Solid franchise, is one meticulous person who wants to throw in nothing but the very best in his games. A recent interview with Mr. Kojima revealed that Metal Gear Solid 4 is too big to fit onto a single Blu-ray disc, and hence he needed to remove certain in-game features. A game that takes up more than 50GB of space? My, my. Why can't the title be released on two Blu-ray discs instead? After all, with PS3 fans touting this to be a "killer app", I'm sure the additional cost of another Blu-ray disc wouldn't be a problem. No idea how disc changing during gameplay will affect sentiments though. Guess this piece of news throws away rumors of an Xbox 360 port - unless you don't mind playing a game that comes on half a dozen 9GB DVDs.

A Dual-layer Blu-Ray disc can contain 50GB - that's the one in the PS3 design.

according to Sony, a Blu-Ray disc can fit up to 100gigs worth of information. and a according to reports posted about 2 months ago, they were experimenting on 200gig discs. is Hideo Kojima misleading the audience?
