The three-disc release wasn’t exactly a surprise. At QuakeCon, Joel reported that the game would require 21 to 22 GB of hard drive space if you installed it to your 360. That hinted at a multidisc form for sure. The 8 GB installation on the PS3 had been rumored. id’s Tim Willits confirmed it for Eurogamer’s Digital Foundry, and complimented Sony for its help in managing the installation and permitting one of that size.
“Sony was great. Kudos to Sony for letting us do that,” Willits said. “They don’t allow every game to do that. So definitely, hats off. What we were able to do is install all the textures to the highest level.”
Willits said that while id Software recommends installing the game to the hard drive on the 360, “you don’t need to install all three discs. If you don’t have the space available on your hard drive, don’t stress. Install the first disc, the first chapter, the first half of the game, then when you’re done, uninstall and install disc two.”
Wow…
