I have no room on my computer to put in my dvd rom, so it sits in my drawer...

More games need to come on DVD. DVD roms have been coming standard for years now, in systems, and or very cheap to add to an excisiting PC (on about $30).

I am tired of seeing games come on 2-4 CDs and still feel like they had things cut for space.

There is no reason for games not to be on DVD.

People complained when the first games required 8 MB of memory, or required soundcards, or required CDROMS, or required Windows 95, or required Hardware Acceleration, or Required Hardware T&L. This requirement is long over due, and I welcome it.

Personally I think it's about time games became DVD only. 3 or 4 CDs is getting too common. You can buy a DVD-ROM drive for about the cost of a new game - all the people who have bought The Sims could have a DVD drive, a life and a fortune saved in expansion packs if they'd reconsidered.

Buying a DVD drive so you can play one game isn't right and I wouldn't go for that. But buying a DVD drive so you can play a significant number of new games, get more free crap if you buy game mags and watch movies is fair enough - much like buying a CD drive so you could save hassle with floppy disks, play a significant number of new games and listen to music was fair enough 7 years ago.

War isn't about who's right, its about who's left.

Are you serious? DVD ROM drives have been pretty much standard in PCs for like three years. I've been waiting the day when I stop getting 4-disc distributions of the games I buy, it's getting absurd. Also, this will help cut down piracy a bit, at least for a small while. The warez people will no doubt find ways to bypass, but it's more trouble.

I myself have a DVD+RW and it's fantastic, but I know I'm not in the general gaming populace. Still, you can get a perfectly capable DVD ROM drive for $50

Well I wasn't that excited about this game in the first place, at least not enough to buy a DVD-ROM. This just sort of cements my decision not to buy it.

Perhaps if they took out half of the totally CRAP and POINTLESS cut-scenes and actually put a little more GAMEPLAY into the damn P.O.S then it would fit onto a CD...

All I can say is that is a mistake. The casual gamer does not necesarily have a DVD Rom... talk about someone needing to fire their market research/distribution team. I care nothing about this game... but this is absolutely abismal...
