Very cool! I like the TB disc jibe at the end but who wants to wait until 2013 for that. LOL I like the fact that these 400gb discs are compatible with current BluRay players.

That would make for an interesting Elder Scrolls Game, imagine graphics better than Gears of War, or Uncharted, and a world over ten time the size of IV's Cyrodill, complete with twenty times the quests, features, and items. :D

Nice disc......Nice girl. How much for both???

For some reason I thought I read that a Blu-Ray player could only ever read up to 8 layers. I wonder how they got around this.

I smell something bigger on the way. Oh wait I've gotta pinch one off..... But that's not it, I smell something even bigger. MMORPGs coming to the PS3. Games with epic stories and unlimited possibilities and it's only on Playstation 3. Not like it's already not possible but with the 400GB Blu-Ray discs even Microsoft will cream in their pants and beg Sony for some Blu-Ray action.

Be more realistic. who on earth wants to make games for that big of a gig? it would take too much time and it would cost too much for a game..... and if someone did, it would be so cool.

let hope game producers will take advantage of the disc space and release a game that will take 20-40 hours to beat. I'm sick of 5hrs or less games.

omg i think i neeed to change my pants! not only for the gaming world is this an amazing feat! but for outside practicalities as well! imagine highe definition series all put on one disk! OMG

and for the gaming world! im very very sure developers will not take full advantage of this technology, but here and there, there are genious developers that treat game developing as an art, example Mr. Kojima, its for people like him im excited for. forget all that crap he said before about not working on another mgs project! because of this! im pretty sure he wont be able to keep his hands off! HAHAHAHA

awesome find TC

M$ has already openly stated that they "may" pick up BluRay - I would say that unless they are involved in the mentioned 1TB disc from the article that they will be paying SONY some royalties and have a BluRay drive before long. Just speculation though.

Don't be so doubtful. Technology gets cheaper all the time. Maybe Blu-Ray won't be cheap enough in 2010 but I can imagine myself inserting 16-layer BD in my PS3 or PS4 in 2012.

Um yeah - you know that M$ already pays SONY for allot fo things - and SONY pays M$ too right? They are not directly competing corporation contrary to popular belief - other than console gaming SONY and M$ are actually very chummy. The two companies have already been in talks for the last year about M$ using BluRay - which is not exclusively a SONY product by the way. SONY is VERY open about M$ using BluRay and M$ is open to the possibility too, so... Get ready to take off your clothes and I hope you don't have far to run to the freeway. ;)

Hey fanboys, get your heads out of SONY's arse and think about it for a second. Do you really think the PS3 will utilize a 400gb blu ray disc for games? How much do you think they'll cost? Yea, it's great and all, but really, let's take a step back and come back to reality.

PS - here is a quote directly from SONY: According to Stan Glasgow, Sony Electronics US president, "Sony is in talks with console rival Microsoft about offering a Blu-ray drive for the X**x**0." Sorry had to remove the direct reference to the other console as I got modded for that awhile back - but you can fill in the asterisks. Here is the link and while it's a few months old now - well... You better get ready to post to YouTube as a previous poster said. LOL http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/06/sony-in-talks-with-microsoft-about-a-xbox-360-blu-ray-d/

That is a serious amount of disk space.. So that's only 12 full feature 1080p movies.. or an entire series of HD TV programming..

Sweet...
