It is well known that Microsoft was recently looking for beta testers for a new disc format. However, a hacker is saying he knows the details to what's in store.

MS will introduce xgd3 – this will add more ap checks, cvi (content integrity) checks, increase the disc size and adds a new layer for protection issues – all in the 20500 sdk! bring it on!


The so called hacker is saying that Microsoft will come out with a new DVD model, known at the XG3D. Allowing the said, above.

None of this is confirmed, just rumored. What are your thoughts on this?

"Increase the disc size"??

So what will it be? Tri-Layer DVD or something?

The increased disk size adds 1 addition GB to the current Dual-Layer DVD. Since the current one only uses like 6.8GB, they had room to increase the size.

Wonder if other systems will use this type of disc too

I thought an xbox disc was equal to a DVD R-DL?

you're confusing the discs for harddrives.

Yeah they can only hold around 7gb, how many can Blu-Ray hold? Isn't it somewhere around 50gb? Not sure...that's just what I think I remembered hearing.
