From an interview (http://ps3.ign.com/articles/729/729630p1.html):
"It would have been very, very difficult to create Resistance on any other platform. First, this game requires an incredible amount of processing power to support the large number of moving characters and objects in the levels. Second, the game requires more than 20 gigabytes of storage space, which means that the only viable storage medium for us is Blu-ray. We could not have fit this game on a DVD or a HD-DVD. So, yet another reason that the game could only have been created on the PlayStation 3."

I know you've all probably read this news somewhere, but what could possibly make this game 20 gigs?

St00pid PR talk.

Sounds like a bad case of bullshit to me.

Sounds like a case of 'extremely bad programming' to me. Or else this game is 3 times bigger then Oblivion with tons of more characters etc etc..

I've got a fever... and 'better programming' is the cure! :P

These statements are brought to you by Sony. The same people who are going to push this game as their next Killzone.

I don't hate Sony at all but I'd rather go with unbiased developers, like Starbreeze who said that most Xbox 360 and PS3 games will look similar, on this subject. But I must admit that there are times when I try to imagine what 360 games would look like if it had HD-DVD out of the box.

[Chris]

I just don't know how they're supposed to lie about it like that. When it ships, the truth will be out and they'll lose credibility.....

then again, a lot of shit has come out that Sony lies about in the past, and no one seems to care. so who knows.

[Nino]

It's not flatout lieing though, it's bending the truth to Sony's advantage.

[Chris]

Sony's just a shady company.

[Rival24]

:D

[Zerodisorder]

Very shady I may dare to say :P
