Final Fantasy XIII 360 Comes On Three Discs
More information can fit onto one PS3 Blu-ray game disc than a 360 disc. This is why the Xbox 360 version of Final Fantasy XIII will be shipping on three discs as opposed to the PS3’s singular piece of physical media.
“Yes the game is on three DVDs for the 360,” a Square Enix representative told VG247.
Those concerned that they’ll be swapping out discs like that annoying friend who can’t listen to a whole song can rest assured that the disc-jockeying will be kept to a minimum.
“Players will only have to swap discs twice during their entire game,” the representative continued.
Now you know what to expect when you crack open your shiny green copy of Final Fantasy XIII when it releases March 8. Hopefully a full install of the game will reduce the disc swapping instanced to zero.
