Gaming Best compression software

I also find it hard to believe that you can get an entire game into 7MB, unless it really was a small game. I've seen some Wii games and PC games scrubbed down to 150ishMB after removing videos and extras then compressing, but 7MB? Where in there do you get the space for a full game?

It their compression algorithm. Might have been a rip but I don't remember and I think it was full. Compression takes along to time get crap small.

no it isn't, they just put a GUI onto the top of the open source PAQ6 algorithms.

Oh. Well, it's still pretty good and it is better than WinRAR in terms of space, but fails in speed.

Nanozip is supposed to be one of the best compression tools. However, it needs decent system resources and takes a while....
