Sony announced that PS3 uses a 2x BD drive, which is 72Mbits/second or 9MB/second. The Xbox360 uses a 12x DVD, which should give it about 16MB/second. That is significantly faster for games and will result in shorter load times. And that 12x DVD drive should be a whole lot cheaper. (Note that the PS3 drive will do 8x DVD, and even that is faster than 2x BD.)

So your sloppy programmers, who, don't bother to compress things because they have 22Gb to waste are going to make you wait 75% longer to load the same assets on a PS3! that's almost double!


Still my favourite quote from the comments:
