MG Solid 2 Substance on DVD Only [Mar 21, 2003, 6:39 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
HomeLan Fed is
reporting having confirmed that due to its large size, the upcoming PC release
of Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance
will be on DVD-ROM only, with no CD-ROM distribution planned at all.
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.
Cheers,

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