Something is odd about this game. It'll compress whole data in only one 5.6GB file! (actually 5.6GB is bigger than 4.36GB DVD size and shoud be shrinked in 2 parts, but this wnot happen)
I test it several times, even with another compressor but the resoult was the same . . .

I got same results with one I did as tried few options and all same size.

The size of compressed game isn't matter, the point is compressor put whole thing in one part, bigger than DVD size (4.36GB) instead of two!
