This enticing piece of news might spur on the current debate over the correct format for the Next Gen Consoles. Recently Hideo Kojima said that "Blu-Ray is too small for Metal Gear Solid 4."
Currently the Blu-Ray disks can hold around 25 GB, but he wants the newer 50 GB Blue Ray disk, which is not a Dual layer 25 GB disk.
Apparently Hideo Kojima believes that what you do with in game sound can fill up the disk rather quickly this leads us to believe that the new MGS may have an ace up its sleeve, perhaps some thing never before seen in a game, though we can't be sure what yet. This seems to be the reason why he needs a larger disk.
Well this now raises the question, will MGS4 come to the Xbox 360? The current reports indicated that this is indeed the case, though whether it will come out on a few disks or be compressed onto one is still to be answered!
You can grab yourself of the podcast, entitled "1 up yours" it is an hour long, and if you just want the section related to this you can grab it from:

Imagine trying to rip a 50 GB game, well unless the PS3 can read iso's that is...
Hideo Kojima is indeed a genius though, and all of this makes me more excited about playing MGS4 and finally seeing what Kojima has in store for us.
