Blu-Ray Too Measly For Solid Snake

[lightbulbthief]

what he was aiming for with blu ray was as little compression as possible so that the quality is not effected, all he's saying is that he was dissapointed with the amount of compression they ended up needing, don't take it out of conext and start getting annoyed when the game isnt 5 years long like you falsely expected.

What's wrong with releasing the game on 2 Blu-Ray discs? Or is that just silly talk? ;-)

Yeah, heaven forbid if the PS3 has to use multiple discs for its games, especially with the amount of fanboys ive seen who like to make fun of the 360 because Blue Dragon and Lost Oddyssy had to be put onto multiple discs because of them still being on a DVD-format.

Still, I doubt anyone could have really filled a BlueRay disc so soon. Even the final fantasy games on the PS2 managed to have everything on a single disc, and oblivion with all the stuff that has available from the get-go.
Lord knows what theyre doing if they really have reached the 50GB limit...

Let's just see a two disc version. One for the cutscenes in which Kojima makes his fantasy film of characters doing badass things that you can't do in-game, and the second disc which you can actually play without being reminded by cutscenes that all that gun-juggling-close-in-fighting is reduced to a single grab-throw manuever.

I suppose they could work that in with quick-time events, a la Resident Evil 4's knife fight with Krauser. (But that made up for itself later in the real boss fight! It was easier for me when I ditched the guns and only used the knife!)

By "After neatly trouncing Toshiba's lame-duck HD DVD format" do you mean

paying Toshiba off with a cheap deal on the PS3 Cell processor factory? looks like a deal to share the PS3 profits to me or is that overly cynical

I'd say, if that is so, it still constitutes a "neat trounce."

Maybe he added one to many mags into the game.

I've just had a ridiculous mental image of smaller version of Hideo running around the Konami offices in absolute distress because he couldn't put in the Japanese subbed, English dubbed, Korean commentary on ultra-fantastico-hard-mode-which-no-one-ever-plays-because-we-can't-stand-another-run-through-of-the-game because the disc space 'ran out'.

Oh, what? The discussion? Er... yeah. I like Metal Gear Solid.






Honestly!

Guys I'm not sure if you know that but the longest cutscene in MSG series took fifteen FUCKING minutes (Just bought GWR Gamer's Edition).Expect a decent but very over-hyped game with 3 out of 12 hours spent watching cut-scenes.

I'm pretty sure Sony payed them to say it so Capcom can now start bullshitting on why "It's technically impossible to port MSG4 to 360".

Dear Capcom: I suggest you check if you've accidentally merged MSG4 and Hentai folders together.Also remove all those cutscenes in which some random dude show off his skills by spinning his gun for five minutes( I've only seen a video of it once but fanboys should know what I'm talking about).Perhaps then your 9-hour-long game will fit in Blu-Ray.Period

That's because of the 23 hours of pseudo interactive cutscenes.

I will translate this from Bullshit to English:

Kojima: I'm fucking HIDEO KOJIMA! I shouldn't have to use compression like everyone else does! Also, 360 sucks!

 

[Arbre]

Today compression techniques leave little to no difference with the original material. The 100 Gb BR disc is coming!

But Kojima thinks he's TOO GOOD for compression, apparently.
