Guerrilla Games gave a nod to the Blu-ray camp, saying the graphics and level of detail found in the game could only be done with large storage space. "It is not a luxury to have Blu-ray, but rather a necessity, as compression only gets you so far.

Anymore proof Blu-ray's extra space is a must?

Don't forget about the announcents by Ubisoft and Rockstar in references to file limitations on DVD9 considering Assassin's Creed and GTA 4.

Bizarre also mentioned similar with respect to DVD and Project Gotham Racing 4.

Funny they talk about compression. I remember some M$ FUD where they claimed their own proprietary compression techs worked twice as well as anyone else's

HD Movies don't fit on DVD9 - not sure how anyone can believe the same wouldn't be true for game worlds that are using HD assets. It just flys in the face of common sense.

Just like HD DVD compromises around PQ vs AQ vs Features far more than Blu-ray..the gap is even more significant for a last gen technology like DVD. You either have to make the worlds smaller, lose picture quality or sacrifice audio quality - somethings gotta give. When I see people on this board who clearly understand that in regards to HD DVD vs Blu-ray movies and yet argue that it's not really an issue for DVD games I just shake my head in disbelief...they aren't willing to make apologies for HD DVD but constantly do it for the 360. The logically inconsistency is baffling.

Don't see any reason to compromise with my HD movie choice so why would I compromise even more so with my gaming choice.

Especially when you can get the best of both - at a cost that's much lower than the alternatives - in a high quality console that's future-proof by comparison.
