Hi austbart, please don't double post.

A DVD requires a DVD-ROM drive in your computer to install the game. And can also store upto 8gb of data.

A CD requires only a standard CD-ROM drive, which is how games have previously come. These can only store 700mb at most.

Obviously as games get bigger, such as STALKER, Supreme Commander, CnC3, etc etc...it's more economical to supply games on DVDs instead of CDs.
