A 6 Blueray changer. You know like a car 6 cd changer... You could just put 6 of your favorite games or bluerays in there so you don't have to switch each game every time.... I am just throwing this out there but in my mind that would be an amazing addition.

Meh - this would raise costs for little to no benefit IMHO.

I am not so lazy that I can't change a disk - and I would rather the R&D / Production costs be spent on something that actually imroves gameplay instead of something like this. An add on drive - sure - but a standard feature? No - as I said I would rather have SONY spend the money on something that improves games - not a feature that has no prctical purpose other than making us even more lazy.

Why a 6 Bluray-changer??? Why not just make the PS4 with two terrabytes of space (2000 GB, 2000000 MB), then you'd just download games from the PS Store. Then you'd have a smaller console (because of the missing slot for Bluray's, CD's and DVD's) and all you're games on the PS4 HDD. All the gamestores (which i hate) would go bankrupt. Additionally to the PS Store you'd probably have a Store for Blurays to so that you could download movies from there.

Lol handy but not necessary in my opinion and I rather doubt they would bother with that. Besides changing a disc takes what... 1 min doesn't bother me that much.

Um, that would heinously multiply the cost to make, it's not funny. And considering I've still only ONE ps3 disc game, and a buttload of ps2 and ps1 games instead, it would go to waste.

Too big, cost even more, the motor could break easily. Then you'll have $180 worth of games stuck in your system that you can't play. Bad idea imo. Disk changers have been nothing but a pain in my arse when ever I've had one. That's why I prefer single only.

Good point now that we are seeing 1TB drives for $130 and 2TB drives for $250 (TigerDirect.com) - that is much more likely and useful than a disc changer IMHO.

some of you people are really lazy, and theres a lot of people out there that don't leave discs in their ps3's when they turn it off ... so it would be a useless feature for many. And why do we need that, are you too lazy to press eject, open a case and place the disc inside the machine??

but if they put away the "slot for Bluray's, CD's and DVD's" there's enough money for the bigger HDDm plus i'm talking about PS4 which wont be out in at least 2 years. In two years the HDD standards will be much bigger and cost less than they do today.

It wouldnt raise the cost that much, alot of you people are looking at the costs by the single unit, while it would be millions of units.

It wouldnt goto wast, blu ray players can play cds and dvds :P Imagine how much easier things would be to say have the 3 final fantasy discs in the machine without having to change them, you could just keep playing.

I would love this feature would make a game night so much easier. Would have so much less downtime, just a simple click of the button and your playing a new game.

its a good idea, but i dont think its necessary, especially because that could raise the price, and ive never had any luck with those cd changers because they seem to malfunction for most of the time ive had one.

Considering that Sony went out of its way to remove BC from PS3's at the tune of $5/chip and two of the USB ports and card readers to the tune of $0.05/slot, you'd better believe they would be that petty to not do it.

A disc changer? Seriously, that would only be useful for people that play a specific game for maybe ten minutes and then play another game for ten minutes. I think what would be cool is if our Playstaions had a compact screen on it in case we wanted to play somewhere where there wasn't a television around. Useful if other people were watching TV. Of course that wouldn't even be necessary if Remote Play would actually work!

Heck no! The PS4 would be huge, and I think Sony is also moving to digital distribution in the future.

I also have a feeling that Playstation is going to find ways to cut costs in the future to tempt people who wouldn't or couldn't buy their system this time around due to the price factor to buy the system next time around. So, I don't think that Sony will be looking into these all around costly additions for little purpose what-so-ever.
