The one on BBC Click was Pioneer's 500GB one, they said "A half a terabyte blu-ray"

There is supposedly a way to put 3TB onto a CD-R:

This means like, every season of the Simpsons on one disc, in HD, with all extra footage and commentary.

Also means that... Liberty City was on around 10 GB, can guess how big it'll be if the next is PS3 exclusive
