So if NG2 is set to be over 30 hours long, why is bluray needed again??

I remember I kept hearing ppl say blue ray is needed for gaming but when a game like NG2 is set to be over 30 hours long and a game like HS is only about 5 or 6 hours long than why is blue ray needed again?? Can anyone refresh my memory cuz either Ive gone stevie wonder andjust dont see it or maybe its somthing else I just dont understand.

How many discs is NG2? :D0rin

How long is NG Black? And how many disks did it need?

Obviously they are used for the 20hours of HD cutscene's used in MGS4!

Read what you just said:

"So if NG2 is set to be over 30 hours"

That means it is their goal that they yet not achieved yet and no one knows if it will be on multiple disks.

NG2 rules!!!

Disc Space isn't about Game Length. It's about Sound, Graphical Fidelity, AI, etc.

Anyways, NG2 won't be 30hrs long, that's a joke anyways. The difficulty is what is keeping it long, not how big the game is. NG is incredibly short, yet tough.

It's said to be 30 hours long? Where did you hear that (seriously)?TyrantDragon55

I heard it I just dont have a link, but im sure m not the only one who heard this.

xbox.com

btw the extra storage capacity is rarely used to make games longer, just look at PS1 vs N64. They are often used for imropved sound quality, better textures, high quality cinematics etc.

There is no way this game is 30+ hours long, the first one was around 12 hours long.In order to make a 30 hour game, you would need an incredible budget, especially for this type of game, probably 40-50 million $ budget.numba1234

Because Oblivion was over 100 hours but used three different textures throughout the game.taikthebate

pretty much what I was gonna say.....I'm not advocating that blu-ray is needed (obviously it's not) but it is nice to have it.

Ninja Gaiden isnt a short game, lol. Even if you are an expert, NG easily lasts 20 hours.

The first was 20 hours long genius, its not God of War 2.

Right. It's definitely longer then Heaven Sword and Lair. That's for sure.

Not to mention, when you die and restart at the last save it doesnt increase the recorded gameplay time. So most people actually spend 30 hours playing Ninja Gaiden, but the game is 20 hours long.

Extra months of development time can help alot. Dont believe me? Check out the pc version of dirt, unless you are going to tell me that the ps3 outclasses a high end pc.

I'm not sure its needed at all, would you rather have a game where the developer had to work out how things could be done to the greatest efficiency or a developer who just thinks "Stuff that, I'm doing the easiest thing I can think of that gives the same effect because there's all this unused space on the disk."

Its been seen in films where a cheap independant film (such as the original Evil Dead) looked way better than big budget films (such as Terminator 3) because they had to be innovative to produce the effects and looks they wanted, not to just throw cash at the problem and hope it goes away.

Yeah when they did announce NG2 is 3o hours long??? They barely showed it at this tgs..the game will probaly come out around middle of next year or end..

Was that my point? Because I don't think it was.

No one knows his acting like its set to 30 hours..useless thread..anyone can make a thread so if ng2 is 15 hours blue ray is needed...

advertised as 30 hours right on the official website.

Mad_Rhetoric

Your point is the only way a ps3 game could be better is to release it on 360 first and then work upon that for months to release the ps3 version.

Sounds right to me

DoctorBunny

My point is that there is a multiplat game that is better on the PS3, but good thing your here to twist it up. Thanks :)

No. Your the one acting like 1 better MultiPlat game that the PS3 got wipes out all the other really bad ports/multiplats.

1 Vs 5+ ...erm yeah the PS3 has better multiplats. :| no you fail.

Because Oblivion was over 100 hours but used three different textures throughout the game.taikthebate

way to exagerate. Oblivion had tons of high-res textures

Fallout 3 should be even better. Also on 360.

That wasn't my point. He said NO multiplat is better on the PS3, so I brought up Dirt, thats it.

I wasn't acting like anything so you fail for trying to hard but missing every point completely.

Obviously exaggerating. Do you think a game would only have three textures?

the graphics will probal stink and the gameplay will be horrible and the cameras,

and you never know with blue ray you could have a 60 hour game

What a retard length has nothing to do with space. Detail has to do with space.

LOL. Of course NG2 will be on one disc, and it will be this length standard. Not forgetting the incredible replay value that that series has. Theoretically NGB lasts forever!

:lol: Did the TC just refer that 30 hours is a long game?

Wow seems that those who have moved on to the current gen have forgotten how long the average game was.

NG2 rules!!!
