Yeah, we've got back to the point of "games have outgrown the current storage media". This isn't the first time it happened - Xbox 360 had this issue too with some games, due to sticking with DVD instead of upgrading to Blu-ray (IIRC, FF13 is three discs on XB360, while it's just one disc on PS3). Anyone who didn't think the same thing would happen again after "new generation, same storage media" was being a bit daft when designing the console.
