Electronic Arts revealed the reason for the decision to go with two Battlefield 3 discs in the Xbox 360 version of the hotly anticipated military shooter: they didn’t want to sacrifice graphics to fit it on one DVD-9 disc.
”Battlefield 3 for Xbox 360 ships on two discs with endless hours of spectacular high-definition gameplay,” said EA in a statement to Eurogamer this afternoon, “Disc one features the stunning multiplayer, co-op levels and HD installation content. Disc two features the superb single-player campaign.”
The PlayStation 3 version of Battlefield 3 will come on a single Blu-Ray disc.
