I got sick to my stomach. It was the worst news ever. I can't believe Epic would betray 360 fans with this kind of Sony propaganda.

It's just  some games are getting too advanced, it needs room for textures, this and that.

Of course Mark Rein feels it is too small.  The guy is one of the biggest graphics whores of a development company I've ever seen.  He probably wants all games to be 1080p which would take more space.

Well it's his job to makes his games fit on DVD9 if he wants my money. So it's not my problem. Other developers seem to be able to do it, so if they can't then it's their loss.

Indifferent to the entire matter.

Yet I wouldn't be surprised if the PC version of UT3 was released on a single DVD. Nine GB's is enough space for this generation of gaming. Lossless compression is an amazing thing, something Sony doesn't seem to want its devlopers doing, so to make everyone think Blu-Ray is really needed.

Sony is just really trying to push Blu-Ray, a format that isn't needed for todays games. IMO either Epic thinks so far into the future that they can see DVD's as being worthless or they are getting $$$$ from Sony to say this...

every time i hear that 'Epic' has said something that sounds way out of left field, i say to myself, "I bet that it's just Mark Rein at it again." I have yet to guess wrong.
