Blu-ray/DVD, standard HDD and struggling with PS3, the id/RAGE circus

A PC is different, though.

You install the ENTIRE game and either keep a disc in there for the drive to know you're aren't playing a pirated copy or you employ some other method for convenience.

No, you don't swap discs to play on the PC and that will include this game.

Perhaps this is where the 360 and PS3's hard drives will have to come into play as well, like a PC's does. Certainly that's the only way I can see 360 people getting around "swapping discs." It won't happen to PC folks one way or the other nor PS3 folks obviously.

It's high time we started seeing the hard drives get employed on all of the game consoles for something past just downloading stuff off the Internet.

Overall, yes: Sony's long term vision for BD is already starting to see justification with news like this.
