ARC File
ARC is a container format used for storing many assets in one file.
Typically you'll find things like Languages.loc and FUI files in Media{console}.arc.
NOTE
"Variable" means the size is determined by other values, e.g., the Filename having a preceding short that determines the length of the string.
Additionally, the file seems to always be in Big Endian.
