May 17th 2008 8:49PM You do realise the 360 drive only reads about 30% faster?
And that is only with single layer 4.5GB games.
For duel-layer 9 GB discs(which is most games) the dvd drive actually reads about 25% slower than a 2x blu-ray drive. (blu-ray players have the same read speeds for singe and double layer discs).
Differences in load times then are more to do with the way a game is programmed, than the physical disc reading rates of both machines.

Apr 24th 2008 5:36AM No, that quote is from the bowls of engadget comment sections. It's exact origins lost in the mists of time, as the meme was repeated again and again in a time before the engadget blog even existed yet still had commenter's commenting on stuff.

Metal Gear Solid 4 will only have local voice tracks {PS3 Fanboy}
Mar 2nd 2008 2:45AM taking 0.19 MB per second of audio based on itunes comparisons.
(mgs4 uses a greater number of audio channells than your standard mp3(dolby 5.1 or dolby7.1, i can't remember from the interview), but this is probably more than canceled out by the higher compression rates they are using.)
assuming there is 30 hours of straight audio in mgs4.
(mgs4 is likelly a much longer game than a mere 30 hours plus there are usually many different audio tracks playing at once.)
30h*0.19MB/s = 21.17GB of data.
this is obviously more than what the actual game data will consume.
however i point out that the rest of the game is what takes up most of the space. Kojima has complained before about the lack of space on the blu-ray discs.
