How big is Gran Turismo 5?

[gtone339]

The vast amount of content that Polypohony Digital is putting into the game is just staggering!!!

So how much Gigabytes will GT5 use on a BLu ray disc?

 

[Conquerer]

Over 9000.

 

[toyota_gt1]

over 9000.

What 9000!?!?!?!?!?

 

[HN7]

My guess would be: all of it.

 

[Stratosphere03]

All of them

 

[nuclearfire]

Depending on if the disk is single or duel layered it could be 25 to 50 GB's but if they put the 3D version of the game on the same disc as Sony said they were able to do with other titles it would probably be no more than 25 GB's

Over 9000.

All of them

Yeah, maybe beyond 100GB??

 

[CoolColJ]

Blue ray holds about 50gb

 

[Stratosphere03]

Aren't there supposed to be new blu rays that hold over 100GB coming out?

 

[Seismica]

35-40GB.

The Blu-Ray DL holds around 45GB.

Aren't there supposed to be new blu rays that hold over 100GB coming out?

The PS3 can only read Dual Layer. At least that is what i've heard.

 

[Imari]

One of the interviews said the disk was nearly full, but that just could have been the reporter talking out his bottom.

 

[Pierced Lead]

Every dev says that ^

My bets are 38.536436 GB

 

[prisonermonkeys]

Every dev says that ^

But in Kaz's case, he usually means it. Hideo Kojima is probably the only other person who comes close, though GT5 blows MGS4 out of the water.

 

[sparkedglory]

If blu-ray can hold 50gb then I'd say GT5 takes up 50.12737283738324gb

Guerilla Games and Naughty Dog say hi.

Thing is though, Kaz says alot of stuff which umm, turn out to be wrong.

 

[WeinerSchnitzel]

They're making dual-layered BDs that can hold close to 120GB. Hopefully PD used these.

 

[DingoDile]

Gran Turismo 4 was on DVD 9 !

 

[nikhil]

IGN said in their write-up that GT5 is using almost 100% of the space on the disc.

Okay, so there's a few of them that stand out. And while Kaz might say things that turn out to be incorrect, I don't think he's lying on this one. GT5's graphics make Forza's look like a cartoon (though in Forza's defence, most of the screenshots I see are custom liveries with cartoon themes), so I'd say that GT5 is pushing the Playstation to its limits.

 

[freshseth83]

PlayStation to it's limits? Nah. Blu-Ray maybe.

 

[daus26]

I actually agree with Kaz that some of the features released earlier should be in the next generation, especially with the amount of details that is going into the game. We know there's a lot of PC and other games that can simulate rain/snow/damage and whatnot with 16 plus cars, but even that, the level of detail that goes into the cars, track, and the crowd is not even close, and we're talking about a system, console game. If it's not pushing the Ps3, I don't know what will. It should at least be close.

Anyway, if it's over 9,000, I'll certainly be needing a new HDD. Seriously though, I only have 2 free gigs left, I need to anyway.

God i hate that, i hope GT5 doesn't allow the same level of customisation for the livery editor. They need to limit the number of layers on the car to say 50 or something, i don't wanna see cartoon characters sprayed over cars in GT5.

 

[WeinerSchnitzel]

PS3 games ARE on Blu-Ray

 

[prisonermonkeys]

PS3 games ARE on Blu-Ray

I think he's referring to the PS3's hard drive.

 

[freshseth83]

I was referring to GT5 pushing the PS3 to it's limits. I said not the PS3, but maybe Blu-Ray to it's limits.

I know this is a radical thought and all that, but have you ever considered just not looking at such vehicles if they bother you so much?

Those games were on a single layer blu-ray, if I remember correctly. MGS4 was on dual layer.

 

[witham]

blu-ray isn't even close to its limits it can go up to 250gb if you get the right sort of disk, he is talking about the ps3s hardware and yes that will be pushed a lot it would suprise me if there is no custom sound track or text chat

 

[Blitz187]

To answer the question in the thread title: VERY BIG!

 

[warp9engage]

Well, in my opinion, the game should be in the 23 GB range. I might be saying a lot a wrong things since I'm not a technical expert but I'd say they're using a standard single-layer Blu-Ray since the top-side of the disk will have all the usual decoration and therefor be unreadable. Also KY has also mentioned that they nearly used all the available space.
