    Bluray storage too small

    Wow. the mind boggles. I don't have a PS3, and I don't know how big the average game is, but not fitting it on 50gb sounds incredible

    jeees

    Probably means there be two versions, one with the Japanese language and the other with English, If so i'm hoping they release them both at the same time rather than the jap version first... that's some statement.
    MGS4 had exceeded the size of a Blu-Ray, nearly demolish any rumor of an Xbox 360 port.
    Not surprised in the least.

    Does that just mean they haven't compressed the audio and movies?

    Or it could be that they've had to duplicate data on both layers (like Oblivion did).

    Not sure how you come to the conclusion of MGS4 and a penis... still if that's whats on your mind then so be it.

    Re: Bluray storage too small

    Dickwaving sounds about right. Its all that uncompressed sound that most people will not be able to hear because they don't have the audio equipment.

    I would be able to hear it but don't plan to buy MGS as I have always disliked the series.

    However I won't complain when FF appears across 6 bluray discs with so much uncompressed sound it spills out of the disc slot.

    For me MGS is better than FF series, the only FF game to come close to MGS is FF7.
