On ps2 most games are arround 4 gigs lately. I just got the new Hulk game and its 4.2 gigs to burn but only 1,5 gigs to download the .rar files. Compressing these files always make them so much smaller but when I dl a movie it seems they can hardly compress that. Anyone know why they can compress a game to a third of its size but they can't do that with a movie?
You can compress games and such because the programming and stuff can be compressed.. But the movies can't.. With Videos they are already compressed using a video codec like mpeg2, mpeg4 etc. if you took a raw video file you would be able to compress it considerably with rar.. but probably not as much as with mpeg4 etc... Also in video games they will put dead space in the discs to "pad" the content to the outer of the disc so that information loads up faster sinec you are getting more data per turn compared to the inside..
