Hi all. I think I just found the right topic to join the general discussion <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
@DAD:
Sorry, but I somehow fail to see your point. Why?
First: Consoles use the system you described. There are no rpgs like <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> or Baldur's Gate for consoles...
Second: RAM isn't big enough to load all data required for playing a game. Harddrives are superior to dvd drives concerning speed...
As long as no one can come up with a convincing explanation/solution for these two issues, I'll still install all my games to my loved harddisk.
And now to get back on topic: If I had the choice between a cd and a dvd edition, I would take the latter; but, as many people already mentioned, I'm not sure if the time is already right for such experiments...
<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/offtopic.gif" alt="" /> Nice to be here and I hope <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/riftrunner.gif" alt="" /> will be a great game...
Firstly, I did not describe any consoles.
Secondly, Swen already announced that <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/riftrunner.gif" alt="" /> demands 128 MB RAM and those who do not have that much MUST upgrade their systems to play the game.
Thirdly: We need not compare the access time of data from a media when no access is required at all.
Fourthly: thank you for making the right choice by favouring a DVD.
Sixthly: Welcome to the forum. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
