Then will be a 1000x better package than the PS3 version ?

COOL !!!!

Usually disk changes don't occur except every like 10 hours. Oh well, I'd rather be able to play a game ASAP than wait for it to install.teh_VU

youll probably have to install and change disks

Seriously, who cares? Remember FFVII? No one cared about changing discs...Screamteam411

disc swapping is soo Ps1 screamteam:P

Oh god, that mean 360 owners actually have to get off their couch after 15+ hours of gaming to *gasp* change their disk! :roll:

I own a PS3 and Im still getting FFXIII for the 360. Besides the fact that Id like to keep my 360 collection growing, I like the nostalgia of swapping discs and the sense of accomplishment of finishing them :P

I kind of want all the discs just to have all the banging characters on them... :(

But they wouldn't work in my PSTriple.

i hope its more then 5 discs... longer game FTW!

Damn it, I'm not buying it now.

I'm assuming that there' going to have to be a few install times like there were on MGS 4 for FF 13, so I'd take the 30 second disc swap 4-5 times then the single disc, having a half hour or more totall install time through the game.

Well, i have a PS3 for FF13vs, but if comes to 360, i will definatly buy the multiple disk cool package 360 version

This is horrible multiple disk + loading times for install means alot of coffee breaks very bad stuff.

The benefits of bluray=slow load speed and likely a mandatory install and no artwork.

The benefits of dvd=lots of artwork, fast load times, and no mandtory install.

You mean we're gonna have to swap out discs after 20 hours of gameplay. Oh Noooes. What will we ever do!!!!!! That means im gonna have to get off my couch after a day of skipping work so i can play this game. Well that just sucks. Awww shucks. Im gonna go sell my 360 right now so that I can get a ps3 and get FF13 for it. Installing is FUN! :) (sarcasm aside)God forbid America ever gets off their a$$ to getoff the couch to play a F#%&ing video game. Geez, you people make me sick.

Disc changing doesn't bother me one bit.

The 360 would probably E-74 itself on them before they can switch to disk 2.Little_B0y_BLUE

yea i'd also watch out for disk scratching on disk changes.

360 games require installs now? I didn't get that memo.

Disc swapping> Mandatory installs anyday of the week. :|

I love it when people go on about how disc swapping is so old and stuck in the past and TEH BLU RAYZZ is how things should be, not realizing it takes MGS4 10 minutes to install itself per level and about 10 seconds to get off your behind and swap a disc. :lol:

Sony fans seem to enjoy sticking their fingers in their ears, yelling "LALALALA" and taking several steps backwards the more this gen goes on. :lol:

The major problem with disc changing isn't that actual changing of the disc to play the next section, it's actually the fact that, as evidenced by SO4, you'll be changing the disc whenever you decide to back track. Considering most JRPG's are known for having huge amounts of extra content that's usually hidden in earlier areas, this will -obviously- be a concern if the same problem occurs. You may say it's not a problem changing the disc once every few hours, but how about once every 15 minutes, within a 3 hour session?jonnyt61

This only happens when you move your 360 whilst a game is playing. I dont know how you play your 360, but I keep mine still while Im playing my games ;)

So now I have to get up for 5 seconds JUST to change a disc?!?! Oh no how will I ever be able to enjoy FF13 knowing I have to get up in the next 10 hours to change a disc?

Theres 600 seconds in 10 minutes. Do the maths and figure out how many times I'll have to get up and swap a disc before i waste more time than you did installing. :lol: It's a step backwards. No way around it.

Oh come on like we are really going to change discs every 15 minutes :roll:

Cows sure love to blow disc swapping out of proportion.

I'm sorry? It's more of an inconvenience for me to get up, remove a disc, get a new disc, put that one in, and then put the old disc in a case, than it is for me to wait 15 minutes before I can play the game.

You can argue making data more easily accessible is a step backwards all you like, I don't really care. I just know that getting up repeatedly to change discs is FAR more of an inconvenience that leaving my PS3 to install a game is.

Seriously, did you just buy a PS3 so you could rag on it? It's all I ever see you do.

This is, of course, only when you're doing side-quests and the like. The main story is unlikely to have much of an issue, as you'll be following a very linear path, I imagine.

It's just a nuisance that really does negatively impact the experience.

That would be silly. Why would you make a quest on 1 disc and finish it off in another disc? :?

It doesn't even need to be side quests. FFXII had many monsters, that only dropped a specific item, in a specific zone. This has happened in plenty of other JRPG's too. It's entirely possible, that any point, you could need to "farm" these items, for whatever reasons, but need to revisit an older area. This would most likely result in a disc change.

I'm not saying you're going to be changing discs every 15 minutes all the time, but instead, in a side quest rush, mass item farm. In that case, it's entirely possible, that you'd run in to this problem at a rate possibly even more frequent. Or maybe it'd be once every 45 minutes. Point is, it's a problem.

[QUOTE="ArisShadows"][QUOTE="jonnyt61"] Well, I'm going off some of the last gen JRPG's I've played, but you'd generally pop to one older area, have a 10~20 minute "quest" there, then you'd go back to the newer one to "hand it in" as such. You could end up doing this any number of times within 3 hours. It's just a nuisance that really does negatively impact the experience.jonnyt61
