[QUOTE="John_Read"] you said not to talk about disc swapping about PS1 and PS2 because it's old tech and then i proved bluray is failed and are just trying to avoid my question you are one who has nothing to say.John_Read

how did you prove blu-ray has failed? :lol:

all I see in the electronic stores is blu-ray players, the other format is non existent, what was it called? I don't remember the name holy **** lol.

as for as gaming is concerned mandatory install make it a fail :lol:

but to get the full experience of Forza 3 you have to install the second disc.

I guess MS learned something from Sony and included install option with update.

btw, how's the Beta status for increasing the size of the 360 disc?

The only way disc swapping is accepted these days is if the point of swapping the discs is to have the information stored on the console so that no more disc swapping is necessary... Atleast Blu-Ray gave the industry something that pushed storage forward instead of using ancient technology... Even at the launch of consoles DVD was getting old and redundant, PCs have very good DD capability yet we are all still lumped with DVDs because they are slightly cheaper.

Its funny, the PS2 pushed DVD into our homes now it's the only thing MS want to use. I remember people complaining that DVD was expensive and pointless, now they are complaining that Blu-Ray is expensive and pointless.

[QUOTE="TintedEyes"] Once again it's not even about the swapping, it's about the usual suspects all over my case lmaoTintedEyes

It's prob because the 360 exclusives are so far behind :P

This sig does seem to get a lot of people up in arms too.

Pretty much just flamebait.

Tc the whole purpose of this thread is because UMAD

All im saying is you could have swapped out 3 or 4 discs in the time it took you to type that message. Think about it......

Yeah, but then he would have the time to type this message.

For me it's like this. If I wanted to swap disk, I would buy a 360 or just stick to last gen. It amuses me when 360 owners excuse for PS3 owners of not wanting to swap disk because "PS3 owners are lazy". YES that is like soooooooo tatally the reason. :roll::roll:

I never minded disc-swapping.

What annoys me is switching back and forth.

You go to a certain town, you gotta switch the freaking disc.

Go back to the other town, switch back.

Ugh.

Final Fantasy VII on original Playstation....

*err, can't reach, just gotta stretch* ahh screw it it'll take a second.

quickposter

FF7 is my all time favorite game and having to swap out the disk SUCKED. Wasn't nothing worse than being bigtime into the game having a good ole time and all of a sudden BAM "please insert disk 2" or "please insert disk 3". So you go from "oh wow can't wait to see what's next" to "oh damn, time to swap disk".

Here's a tasty morsel of truth: Getting up and putting a disk in a tray takes absolutely no time or effort. Really. So, like, debating against it is like wearing a shirt that includes all the nutritional information for a Big Mac. Just get up and switch the damn disk.

Unless you're synthing and need to go from town to town, dungeon to dungeon for crafting materials.

Then you're free to say "Damn it to hell."

Multiplatform games should not have to be designed around the limitations of the Xbox 360's disc format. 3 DVDs isn't always enough, as evidenced by all the content that was removed from Final Fantasy XIII. That, and the lack of a standard hard drive is what cost the 360 a port of MGS4.
