Battlefield 3 for Xbox 360 to be Released on Two Discs
GeneralPosted on Tuesday, September 6th, 2011 at 7:20 PM by Guest
According to a Japanese gaming blog Esutero Battlefield 3 will be released on Xbox 360 on 2 discs. With Video games containing more and more content it really isn’t a surprise.This isn’t the first game Microsoft has had to split onto different discs with the recent release LA Noire being shared onto a unusual three-disc system.
The console’s lack of storage on discs is becoming a issue for developers and players alike. Last year Jun Takeuchi, Lost Planet 2 producer, said that Capcom had to cut a large amount of content purely because there wasn’t enough space.
Microsoft has already tried to reduce the issue in March when they began trialing a new disc format which would allow an extra 1GB of storage on Xbox 360 discs creating a total of close to 10GB.
The Japanese blog did also include that Battlefield 3 will only be on one disc for PlayStation 3 due to their huge Blu-Ray discs.
