Sony and Panasonic are teaming for a new Disc Format 300gig!.. oh and TLHBO

Yeah, kinda pointless but its mainly for storage of massive media and complex files maybe 4K stuff...

Sony Global - Sony Global - Sony and Panasonic sign basic agreement to jointly develop standard for professional-use next-generation optical discs

SO ?

Will not care until both Dual layer and RW versions come out.

lol, i will laugh when installs are required for gaming and load times for moves get even longer than the blu ray load times.

TLHBO? How? MightyMuna

Disc formats for gaming are going to be obsolete real soon.DaBrainz

I like steam and all, but I still also like to have the games in my hands!
But i guess digital will force the discs out. 

There's already 200GB Blu-ray disc and we've not even started using that. MightyMuna

Kojima will splooge in his pants just thinking about it.

It'll be nice for archiving stuff, provided they actually improve the durability of the discs and decrease the wear on the drives. Still, flash, non-moveable parts storage will be my preference still.

Don't worry, it's going to fail. Blu-Ray already had a hard enough time trying to find a market while competiting with both DVDs and Digital. Any future physical format will be niche at best.

Lems said that MS would never need Blu-ray and that next gen would be all digital download....

Sorry, just tried to come up with an equally ridiculous straw man argument.

Most people just knew Blu-ray for what it was, more space. Apparently MS got the memo and has it in the XBO. ;)

i know they said the 360 didn't need blu ray.

Yeah when 4k Movies come out I doubt they will even use disks. If they do say good bye to pirates. No one wants to download a 70GB 4k Movie file.

I think digital streaming off a network is the way to go for 4k movies in the future, but even that will require a decent internet connection.

And in other news, Sony and Panasonic continue to pay billions to MS. Who cares.

Sony keeps living in the past. First, they have no Kinect, no cloud, and are now pushing physical media...facepalm.jpg
