So a rumor is going around that Dead space 2 will require 2 disks on the 360. Im sure someone has the 360 version early so anyone wanna say something about this? Or is this just a rumor? 

Does it matter?

" Does it matter? "

Oh hey, a PC version. Alright, I'm out.

what does this have to do with anything? will this change anything? does it matter?

Looks like it, according to various torrent files. Cool.
 
The sooner devs think outside of DVD capacity limitations, the less the PC and PS3 versions might be compromised since they aren't limited by the same 9gb.

Yes, because A: It means that it will be a big long game and B: its a pain in the ass keeping 12 GB of install space on a 60GB Hard Drive, so most people will have a big 5-10 minutes gap in the middle of their game as they install the second disk. "

Gotta love them blurays!

It seems like something EA would have mentioned. I guess it doesn't really matter but still. Seems like it would have come up earlier.

5 mins? it takes 10 seconds to switch a disk.

    Yes it does. Moving on. "

Buy a ps3 and quit your bitchen. Thread move along. "

What matters more is if it is in one of those shitty eco-boxes. 

With games getting bigger and bigger I wonder if Mircosoft will go Blu-Ray in their console?

Right...unless you have to delete the first disk and install the second. I'm not saying this is a big deal, but just something to keep in mind. "

I'm down with multiple discs. Means a longer game :) If you're worried about having a gap in between playing, then install them both at the same time. Clearly that is what any smart person who installs games would do.  
 
If you're not worried about installing, take 5 seconds to get off your fat lazy ass (which is what you are if something as trivial as switching a disc is problematic) when prompted.

If you're a whiner.  I swear to God, what kind of fucking self-entitlement complex have we as gamers found ourselves in where having to switch discs one time ever is considered something that matters?  Sure, you've already qualified that it's not a big deal to you, but at the end of the day, are you really going to remember that time you went and made a sandwich or took a piss or checked out the internet for a couple minutes because you had to switch discs in Dead Space 2 and decided to install the other disc?  It's fucking ridiculous. "

" Gotta love them blurays!  "

Sooo don't care.

" @iAmJohn: Don't blow this out of proportion kid. I was just acknowledging this as a fact. But since you asked, yes you WILL remember that time that you to wait for the install if the game is good. People quite pointedly remember the install times on MGSIV, because they just wanted to get back to the fucking game. If DS 2 is as atmospheric as it is made out to be, having a  big dump back to the dashboard will kind of suck. "

I love my ps3 no disk swapping for me son. 

why the goddamn does that video need to exist?   i hate my species. "

So far people reviewing it are not mentioning it at all. "

I had to switch discs twice for Mass Effect 2, was I complaining needlessly on an insignificant issue; not even an issue, just a bullet point, two discs = you are gonna have to switch them, not a big deal.
 
if you are talking atmosphere, ME2 didn't dump you back to the dashboard, it stayed in that menu prompted and started to load the second disk. If you are installing the game and complaining about atmosphere, its optional, you don't have to install them. Games now a days don't gain anything anymore from load times of installs.

Why would they invest in creating something brand new just for their own games?  That's completely not Microsoft's style in the least.  The only reason the next Xbox wouldn't have a Bluray drive is because they're going all-digital. "

I suppose that at this point I'm going to have to blow everyone's mind and point out that I have little-to-no interest in Dead Space 2, and would probably still get the 360 version if I was going to.
 
Again, bloody children. I'm going to bed.

Why did everybody get all butt-hurt over this thread?

There's a lot of weird grumpy-ness going on in this thread.

Didn't think the game was that big, maybe just the multiplayer stuff I guess. A second disc isn't going to stop me from leaving the 360 version. Wow there are a lot lazy ass people up in this thread.

it is not going to happen next generation, it will be optional. They are not going to cut their revenues from stores like that. I can see day and date digital and store release. Or pre order gets you the game early on digital but i expect stores will still get games. "
