A Whole Lotta Sound Data In Heavenly Sword
In a recent discovery by Develop, it has been noted that the upcoming PS3 heavyweight by Ninja Theory, Heavenly Sword, is going to be packed with audio. In fact, 10 GB worth. Considering that that's just a little less than half of my large iTunes library and this is just one game title, that's pretty impressive. In fact, it's one of the things that makes the PS3 so impressive--a regular dual layer DVD can only hold 8.5 GBs.
It has been announced by SCEE's Garry Taylor that the title's audio info is made up of "...an hour and a half's worth of cutscenes in eleven languages," three and a half hours of music (which if you've played the demo, is something to rejoice over), sound effects, and 4,500 lines of dialogue.
Holy Liberace! Game sound sure has come a long way since your parents thought it'd be "neato mosquito" to buy an Atari!
