Its a 60GB+ game, you expect to get it to 20GB+ NOT LIKELY, like razor said use traditional methods to compress it. You'll end up with manageable number of DVDs.

Who wants to take 3-4 hours to install game because you managed to compress it down
to smallest it possibly can. Rather burn a few more DVD's & be able to install in under 1 hour, then take 3-4 hours because it takes so long to uncompress it.

Well for country like ours, It's not possible to buy a lot of DVD's as the price of game is high and also blank dvd's. As we all have slow internet,. We try to compress as low as possible.

And if you Import Blank DVDs via Internet?
Here in Europe (ex. Germany) it's really cheap. For 10xDVD9 (8,5GB) I pay 10€, from the Label "Intenso".

#####EDIT#####

If anyone find out what's the Multiplayer files, and don't really need them (RIP) maby the Game could be near to 12 GB small.
