No this is serious, compared to a few years ago they needed lots of memory now they have far too much memory meaning what they use now is pretty much nothing at all.
Games now on normal CDs hold as much as 650MB, DVD can hold a little more at 17000MB (17GB) but not it seems that there is a new (old really it was created in early 1999) CD that can hold far more at 140000MB (140GB) only now are we starting to use DVDs, for games and movies, yet already DVD is pretty much nothing at all. This new CD can hold up to 25 DVD movies.
With this new disc I am sure it would mean game developers will feel they need to make games much more larger. Who's going to want a game that only takes up 1/215 of memory on a disc
Bigger is better you know
