Lost Odyssey To Span Four DVDs

Posted by Zonk on Friday September 21, 2007 @09:36AM from the that's-a-big-game dept.

Perhaps proving that Sony has something to their 'bigger disc as standard' argument, IGN is reporting that Lost Odyssey will span multiple DVDs when it is released for the Xbox 360 next year. "Hot on the heels of the three DVD long Blue Dragon, Sakaguchi informed the crowd that Lost Odyssey will span a massive four DVDs. The game, which uses a mixture of CG and real-time cutscenes, will last roughly 40 to 50 hours. Lost Odyssey will follow in Blue Dragon's footsteps in another way as well. The team plans to ship the game with multiple language options, including English and Japanese. However, the voice animations will be synched to English on all versions, including the Japanese release."

Ya, but PS3 shipped with a Bluray drive for games. Xbox360 has that HD-DVD video addon, but it can't do games. The point of 'Hrm, maybe the game drive use one of the new, bigger formats' is still true.

But if a game required constant switching back and forth between disks, that could get real annoying real fast.
One word for you: RIVEN.
