minus-squareLost_My_Mind@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·12 hours ago Final Fantasy VII releases on 3 discs. It was a huge sucsess. PS1 discs contained 700mb per disc. Blurays I think are 25gb, but with different burning options should be able to store up to 75gb per disc. This means a game would need to exceed 225gb to go beyond 3 discs. Why would that be an issue? Most games can fit on 1 disc. Maybe 2. Rarely 3. I can’t think of a game that would need 4.
