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."

Yeah but the Xbox360 HD-DVD speced where scraped and replaced with a DVD.

And I guess this is sort of why Microsoft started to support HD-DVD so much at all because having Bluray not seem like a definite winner which it more or less was and eventually fail would make the point that the PS3 came with a Bluray player which could also do HD-video less major. (Weird english :D)

Which is one of the reaons why I hope bluray wins:
1) More space.
2) HD-DVD are only considered because Microsoft wanted to hurt PS3 sales.

DVDs are fine, for Wii ;D
