Latest Final Fantasy Game Will Require 3 DVDs on Xbox 360 According to GameFly Product Description
February 1, 2010 - Final Fantasy XIII will ship on three DVDs for the Xbox 360 according to GameFly. The rental service noted that Final Fantasy XIII is “a three disc game” in its description of the Xbox 360 version. The PlayStation 3 version of the game will be contained on one Blu Ray disc, meaning that PlayStation 3 owners won’t have to swap discs while Xbox 360 owners will have to swap discs at least twice.
Mass Effect 2 shipped on two discs for the Xbox 360, requiring two disc swaps during the game. The disc swaps, luckily, were painless and quick. As game technology advances, DVDs are becoming too small to contain games. RAGE, the newest IP being developed by id Software, will ship on multiple discs and Forza 3 also shipped with multiple discs for extra content.
Final Fantasy XIII is scheduled to hit the states on March 9 for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. It is being developed and published by Square Enix and has been five years in the making.
why do they call it DVD-9 on 360 when it only 6.something gigs!?!

Duke Nukem Forever will be on 20 disks from what I understand.
but what about if i was to instal to harddrive?!?! i’ve often wondered, i mean you instal to hd and you have to have the disc in the tray, but if i have disc 1 of ff in the tray does that mean i have to change it for disc two?! or will the HD do the biz with disc one in it! who knows
I think even if you install it to the hard drive you’ll need to insert discs. That’s how it worked with Mass Effect 2 which shipped on two discs…
