Why can't they just make a dvd full of the cut, soon to be DLC, stuff for the sole purpose of downloading it onto the hard drive. So make a DLC DVD put everything on the harddrive put the game disk in and statrt playing without a swapfeast and waiting to buy the DLC.(just guessing that microsoft is going to make people pay for the cut contents.)

console wars are for poor people who can't afford to buy multiple consoles. Being restricted to one console brings out certain envious feelings and to make there single console more tolerable they try and justify there purchase to make them selves feel better. Its really not that hard to work out. its nice to be able to play the games you want and to not have to compromise muahahahahahahaha

Lost Odyssey came on 4 disks for the xbox360 if i remember correctly. Did anyone find that a problem? i didn't!

Besides have you seen how many people are in a games credits these days? that's a lot of people all wanting a cut of each sale so its saddening to see gamers getting squeezed with these business models. :(

"...They got no installs, and hardly any load times" Bullshit KZ2 had a ridiculously loooong loading time at the start of every stage and when loading from the main menu. You have spent too much time in Multiplayer recently, which, understandably, doesn't have this nuance.

All this DLC is going to kill me. I just hope it doesn't drag the industry down.

As 18:52 pointed out I meant this.

Why put it as downloadable content when we can bloody install the game on to our harddrives like the PS3 why does the PS3 get the content which has to be installed on the HDD anyways see my point?

Like in multiple discs game you can install it on the HDD and don't have to switch discs and it seems like ALL OF SANKAKU COMPLEX JAPAN and everyone else not Western seem to be oblivious to the fact that Xbox 360 can install Games to the HDD not needing to change discs. Yet you have to install it on the PS3 anyways go figure.

Sorry for sounding like an ass but it seems everyone's forgetting basic things the console can do besides RROD.

I think what that other person was meant was that if the content that had to be LEFT OUT will become DLCs which you download and install onto your console, why not just put all that stuff on a second disc that would be included with the game so instead of paying/downloading the DLC, it's already there for you to install anyway?

@Anonymous 13:51, I wonder why ToV and SO4 came out better on the PS3? I doubt it could be because they had an extra year or so to work on them or the fact that they are just actually just ports of a finished product with some added content. The 360 is weaker than the PS3, but not by much, the ONLY thing showing its age is the DVD drive and that can be fixed by using multiple disks. But when companies can just cut the content and sell it later instead of selling it all in one go they decide to just ignore that little fact.

You might be playing your 360 too, if that shoddy piece of crap doesn't crash on you.

I don't see how the xbox having a hard drive is going to magically let them fit everything on to the dvd.

Although I reckon if they tried really hard and utilized some bleeding-edge compression technology they might be able to pull it off, at the expense of either on-the-fly decompression or forced installation. Or even dynamic texture generation techniques, like the demoscene uses. [asside: If you don't know anything about this geek subculture, I'd suggest checking out conspiracy.hu for some pro stuff, or pouet.net / scene.org for a more general picture.]

Echelon managed some awesome shit back in the day, for their release of Skies of Arcadia they coded in on-the-fly decompression of game data so you could burn the game discs on to standard 700MB CD-Rs and just play it. (note: commercial Dreamcast discs could hold ~1GB)

But all this aside, making the stuff available as DLC sounds reasonable, preferably as free DLC.

Capcom I got a Question for you for lost planet 2.

Can the xbox 360 install games on HDD?...

Yes of course it can. Then your argument is complete pile of shit, you fucking lazy bastards.

Your just making money off of Xbox360 owners. Thank you for making money out of us.

Should have just cut the content they didnt think was needed on the first disc, put it on a second disc and tell you to install it on the harddrive. Kind of like what Forza 3 did.

Lost Planet is a 360 franchise. If Capcom does this, I might consider boycotting this game

@Anonymous, person 2 boxes above Phantom, ToV and SO4 actually came out a lot better on the PS3 than the 360 versions, a reason to get excited, more content better graphics, more options, so, I don't really get what the point your trying to make is, except for 360 failing, even though it is, going down, and is seriously starting to show its age, limitations, and restrictions.

I guess you never owned a Commodore, early Apple, or PC then eh? Even fairly recently before DVD drives were popular in PCs, we were swapping discs like mad just to get games installed... Remember the UT 2k4 CD set? Seven bloody discs.

It's a great idea, but MS missed their fucking chance. Also, the read times for HD-DVD were faster.
It would have worked beautifully.

Agreed, the Xbox 360 should have had a built in HD-DVD drive, and cemented a place for the dying format to go. I mean Microsoft isn't gonna licence BluRay from Sony, no chance in hell.

Break out those old HD-DVD drives, and pack in a drive with a big game. Lets bring HD-DVD back from the dead!
