kingloui used our newssubmit to tell us that Chip.de reports that Eidos wants to release all their games on DVD by the year 2003. Chip.de reports the following, manually translated from German:
Game manufacturer Eidos wants to publish all it's new games on DVD in 2003. Lars Winkler from Eidos Germany sees only advantages in the DVD format, a player will be offered, not to announced yet, new features that would fit on the DVD because of it's large storage capacity. |
But the company also hopes it will decrease the level of piracy. According to Winkler, Germany is the 'Weltmeister' (Winner) when it comes to software piracy (!?)
Earlier this year the company already released games on DVD and they were received very well by the consumers, and also 80% of the games seems to have a DVD player. All with all Eidos sees only benefits by bringing their new games on DVD.
