final fantasy 13 3 disc???

i seen something earlier that said the game was goin to be on 3 disc is this true???

also a bunch of guys who like ps3 were sayin that it ruins the game i personally do not think so because it takes like a whole two minutes maybe to switch the game...hell go get a drink or something after you put the game in and once you switch it from what i understand the game will be linear(not a bad thing) so you probably will not have to switch back to disc 1 or 2 ever idk just let me know what you think!!!

It's 3 discs.. the problem isn't swapping it's if 1 disc gets scratched you have to buy an entire new game and the way they package the discs is horrible.

This is what I'm worried about...

The chances of damaging the game has just been tripled, thearetically, a careful gamer will be fine but its still worrisome to me. You never know.

Lost Odyssey had 4 discs and they had 3 stacked on the peg and 1 in a paper sleeve where the manual goes. I know multiple people that had a disc get wrecked so they hadt o go buy another copy of the game. Also now days the game cases have those pegs that hold the game really tightly so they crack if you take them out enough or are not careful. I just hope they package FFXIII better.

the best thing to do is get a couple of dvd cases or something and put them in there you never know they might have actually put something in there instead of stacking because dang your disc would get scratched takin them out now i see why it sounds so gay...oh well been waiting for this one for a very long time and nothing anyone can say will stop me 8 days and its in my xbox lol

I'm not worried about this either. I loved FF 7 and 8 and they both had multiple disks, as well as ME2. And as far as them getting damaged, I cant count the number of games I've owned on disk from way back in PS1 days and I've never had 1 get scratched to where I couldnt play it. I guess I take pride in my things and dont treat them like crap. I figgure if I'm paying for it I'm going to take care of it. And really, how scratched can a game get going from the case to your console and back?

its not hard to keep care of disks just put them in the case immediately after you eject it, really not a problem at all just something to get picky about

Multiple disks doesn't bother me. A total of 5 minutes switching disks out of a 60 hour game is nothing. And i've never had a problem with scratched disks.

Im sorry but Microsoft shouldnt have cheaped out on the optical drive in the xbox 360. HD DVD could have been built in and since its death, exclusive for just Xbox games, atleast we wouldnt have to revert to 1998 and swap out multiple discs while playing games. I just never thought disc swapping would come back...beinss

who knows what kind of hoops they would have had to go through to obtain HD-DVD and how much it would cost to keep a useless format alive.

I had an '05 PC game that came on 4 discs and the total install time would easily be greater than switching a disc in the 360 a hundred times over.

not a big deal, yet.

i seen something earlier that said the game was goin to be on 3 disc is this true???

What the hell? 3 DISCS?!

There's no way I'm buying it now,

I'm way too fat and lazy to have to swap discs all of two times during a lengthy RPG. I'm winded just thinking about it...

Meh not a big deal to me I can buy dvd cases or something if it isn't packaged that well. I actually love multi-disc games it brings back great memories.

also a bunch of guys who like ps3 were sayin that it ruins the game i personally do not think so because it takes like a whole two minutes maybe to switch the game...hell go get a drink or something after you put the game in and once you switch it from what i understand the game will be linear(not a bad thing) so you probably will not have to switch back to disc 1 or 2 ever idk just let me know what you think!!!

i like how theres 3 discs. kinda like a throwback to the olden rpg days. it does really suck when you have one disc thats destroyed though but more reason to take care of it i guess

That's a good idea and a possibility. But the problem with that idea is that 4 friends could chip in for the game, take turns installing it, then all just take a disk.

its just one disk for ps3

there i said it *while raising my flame shield*

Less than Lost Odyssey? Epic Fail :Pmagicalclick

You're probably going to get the amount of gameplay on 1 disc then you would get with another game. So basically just think of it as you finished the first game and immediately starting the sequel. Maybe that will ease some of your pain?

Are you guys really complaining because omg a disc might be ruined? Are we just looking for things to hate on? Remember way back when FF wasn't coming to the 360? and how happy everyone was when it was announced? Now it's suddenly not good enough for you guys because it's 3 discs. Man devs can't win with you guys. Why should they give people what they want when all they see is hate because some entitled gamers can't be bothered to make some adjustments.

But of course you can install it in xbox360.

[QUOTE="DranzarTypeF"][QUOTE="FaintRain"] i heard it's going to be on 4 disks (better?) i don't mind multiple disks actually i think it's one reason to buy the game lolvendettared468

Imagine how big this game is!

I have no problem with disc swapping, I've been doing this since the Sega CD era :P , Night Trap was on 2 discs.

I actually wish Square-Enix made FFXIII with a minium of 4 discs. That way they wouldn't have had to sacrifice resolution and CG bit rate on the 360 version. Technically they could have made the game identicical to the PS3 version, but I'm not surprised that a company SONY once financially backed catered more so to the PS3 version.

People are just looking for something to pick on, thats all. We were all fine when FFVII came on multiple discs.Anjunaddict

NO DUH, of course people was all fine about it on 4 disc. Because it was on a playstation disc! which holds less memory. And also each 4 disc has its own cd holder. top,middle,middle,bottom the 360 is stack in 1 case. once you open the case 1 cd will fall out

CD's are less susceptible to scratches than DVD's. Dual layer DVD's have over 7 gigs of data in the same physical space, meaning any tiny scratch can potentially ruin more data.

There were three discs with Star Ocean:TLH and it was pretty much a non-issue. Installing the discs makes loading faster but you still have to switch out discs as a "proof-like thing" showing that you have a legal complete copy of each disc.

Once you get into the game you'll never notice the switching.

Bothersome though...

People need to stop whining about this. its a non issue. Get off your butts and swap the darn disc. If you are seriously THIS LAZY. get a freaking life. You swap the dvd's in your 360's multiple times a day on most days but when it comes time to do it because you "HAVE" to you complain. Find something actually meaningful to complain about

Good example is: Why isn't it on 4 DVD's to have the High Res CG? I would have NO PROBLEM with that.

Or How about. Microsoft finally got Square to go Multiplatform!!! for a Real Final Fantasy Game. Its just more Proof that Sony is in more trouble than people want to admit to themselves. For so many people Sony and JRPG's are the sole reason why people even bought the PS3. Now all of a sudden we on 360 got Lost Odyssey which IMO from a Writing standpoint is easily the best JRPG made sinse the SNES era. and now Final Fantasy on Xbox. Were finally drawing in the North American Gamers who are obsessed with Japanese Style Games.

Microsoft right now is in a Win Win Situation and all Sony can do is Watch it happen. What can they counter with? White Knight Chronicles!? LOL
