There are already double-sided DVDs.
exactly, thtz why they should be like that in video games
Why?
bcuz if one side is messed up and unsuable, u can use the other side :)
PSW did 2 sided discs at one point....
Or you could take care of your disks!Quote:

I could see the use of a two-sided disc for video games if the hardware could read and process both sides simultaneously, that would be a plus. But, if you just had a two-sided disc, then the only advantage would be when you needed to change sides you could just flip the disc instead of putting that disc up and getting a new one from somewhere.
Less packaging I suppose, though nothing short of Myst games usually go over the space on your standard DVD.
Thats cause myst is bloatware crap.
Anywas, two sided CD's would be nice, but so were cartrages.
bottom line, $$$$$$$$$. Two one normal CD's are just cheaper, people just got smart in the earlier conception of the DVD standards, and created dual layer DVDs. Like any technolgy, non standard setups get too confusing and more expensive to work with.

so its cheaper if its 2 sideed :confused:
I believe he's saying, its cheaper to get two one sided disks than it is to get 1 double sided disk
*nods* you bet.Quote:

Even if there was you wouldn't be able to go back in time and have your broken game be one of them, get over it.
I belive he was refering to what I said. Two sided cd's would be a waste of effort, much like Bush trying to run for another term of presidnecy. They are both old, outdated, and even if they could handle more information, they would prolly just screw it all up anyways (Bush and cds)Quote:

For that, I scored it low.

I don't really like double sided discs because then you can't have any artwork on the disc besides a tiny circle near the center... plus I find they are harder to keep in good condition since whatever side you put them on, it will be a data side.
That's why you always put the discs away in their case when you are done. :smash:Quote:
