funny
but really a blue ray player will set you back 1k and ps3 only 600--seems like a god deal 2 me plus you get a game system--
>> Anonymous
Sony controls the prices, so it makes sense:

Buy ps3 so that you don't have to spend the extra $400.00.

Meaning they could sell more to potential prospectors of Blu Ray. So :/

That's not the point.

The point is that does anyone really need blu-ray? No one in any industry is actually going to need to use that much space for anything. Not even in the video game industry.

All it is is just Sony trying to force yet another medium, and this is going to end up like Beta, Minidisk and UMD

i remember BILL G8$ saying "512kb of ram is all youll ever need" -- but i think your right The american sheep need somthing simple and sumthin with a clear title like "HD_DVD" is it what is says it is and that all people are gonna know and think BLUE RAY is some new sunglasses company

Thats what I was insinuating. Since they control THEIR PROPRIETARY format, Blu Ray, NOWHERE did I say they owned the cell processor or control its prices, I was referring to the format but I guess some people can't already take that obvious information...

we should gb2 /v/

I think the blu-ray will be like laser disk!
It came out right before DVD did and it has almost as good of quality as Dvd.
But it was soon over looked when when Dvd's hit the shelf Laser Disk become a what is that???

I think HD-Dvd will be good and do way better then Blu-Ray. We just aren't ready for Blu-Ray!!!! May 10 years we will be really ready for it.... but not right now... not for $600+$90(for a game{or so i am estimating} not including multiple controlers and stuff like that....

Ill make a computer with that much money and get my monies worth!

Sony and the Toshiba are both trying to establish their product on the market.

The market definitly will be there in the near future, considering that todays game-dvds are already crammed with 4GB of data.

So what Sony with using Blu-Ray in their PS3 gamesystem is trying to do is "seed the market". Even a mediocre success of the former market leader in consoles will be a headstart to Toshibas HD-DVD which needs a separate apparatus.

In the end, which of the systems succeed will to a big part be determined by the PS3. That one of these two will be the new marketstandart is almost sure. All we can do is wait and watch.

have some beers mates!

David Paul Gregg first envisioned the optical disk (or VIDEODISK as he named it) in 1958 and patented the technology in 1961 and 1969. Gregg's company Gauss Electrophysics was acquired by MCA in the early 1960s. MCA also bought the patent rights for the optical disk which included a the process for making a video record disc and other optical disk technology. In 1978, MCA Discovision released the first consumer Optical disk player in Atlanta, Georgia.

With the price tag alone, sony is alienating the vast majority of their consumers. They're focusing far too much on making their system a multimedia machine.. which NOBODY wants.

It's gonna fail.. like.. neo geo fail. hardcore.

Sony are pushing the PS3 as a vehicle for Blu Ray and not as a games console. If it wasn't for Sony's army of fucktard fan boys I would have said it would fail miserably because of this lack of focus, but sadly some people will buy a shoebox full of shit if it had the right badge on it.

I am totally agreeing with you. I'm not a fan boy either, I bought Ps2 the freaking minute Kay-Bee-Toys opened. They had a security guard bring it in, I felt proud. Then I played DoA and a handful of other games. But I ended up selling it.
