CD Rom or DVD?

[Ronan_UK]

When buying, which one should I purchase? I know my computers support DVD's, but apart from that, will a DVD or CD ROM give me any particular advantages? Run faster?

Thanks.

The PC-DVD ROM version will only have one disc, while the PC-CD ROM version will have six discs.

Need I say more about which one to purchase?

I prefer DVD always.
If u buy CDs,it's 6 CDs,so u have to open & close ur drive 6 times while installing.
& also u get confused which is the play disc & many times u'll be inserting the wrong disc for playing.

So go for DVD,which has none of the other problems.

Ok thanks, is it like 1 disc for ICC, one for editing etc.? Needless to say if I get the game, it'll be DVD for PC, unless I get it for PS2...

Rep added for that!!

Yeah I was just thinking before I read it, bloody hell! And I thought Lord of the Rings, Battle for Middle Earth was colossal!!

That's Massive, the programming must be really wasteful, guess I'll have to buy a new hard drive before I buy the game.

I would hope you would only need the 6 CD's the once (to install). 1 cd is enough to verify your copy is legal (As long as you always need CD1, say)

 

[aussie1st]

definitely will just be for installiation no way you would have to use it everytime

i wouldnt mind putting 6cds just to install it
its only once init
