Just how big is W3 going to be in terms of GB?
I was thinking that it may be fun to speculate. W2:EE is what, 18 GB? And if the third game is 35 times bigger I wonder how many GB it's going to hog. Assuming the console dual layer blu-ray versions are capped at 50 GB - AND assuming the graphical quality of the game is going to be pretty much the same across platforms, I think it's safe to assume we are looking at at least a 50 GB game here.
I understand that the Red Engine 2 textures are heavily laden with high fidelity pre-rendered graphics. The RE3 is going to be even more demanding. I'm guessing the DVD release is out of the question. No one is going to install the game on 8-10 DVDs.
Skyrim barely had any pre-rendered graphics, hence the reason it could fit on one DVD, hence the poor graphics, by PC's standards anyway.
