And this is different from scratching disc 1/1 of a game how, exactly?

Seriously now, how many CDs and DVDs have you damaged in the 20+ years that
they've been on the market?


Being on multiple DVDs wouldn't bother me at all. To be honest, even if they were on BR it would have issues. The space BR offers to hold what would be a 4 DVD set would leave little else for the need to replicate data for load times. As slow as the BR reader is on the PS3, one would wish for the DVD set. On a side note, I was going to buy Lost Odyssey. But, when I read the review and the graphical problems, framerate problems, nasty load times and a not so good presentation, I think I'll pass. This would have been the first JRPG for me on either the Xbox or the 360, maybe next time.
