Well I was going to pick up a PS3 mainly for Blu-ray but the prices are still alittle high. But I already own a 360 and just thinking about waiting for the next XBOX to come out and pick up if it has blu-ray.

By the time the next Xbox comes out, chances are Blu-Ray will be the accepted medium of watching films and playing games (like DVD is now), and a new one will be coming out.

I'm all for DD. It would prevent me from selling games randomly and later rebuying them. :P

Sorry isnt the Single creator, and letting Microsoft use it would be an advantage seeing as Sony would be making money off of it.

The way things are shaping up, I'd be surprised if any console had a disk drive. But hypothetically if they were to go with a disk drive, I'd say, no they wouldn't. Sony would demand pretty hefty royalty fees on every box sold, and if that were the case, Sony and Microsoft should just join together and make one box and call it a PS4.

Of course. And for the people that say stuff like "If I was Sony I wouldn't give it to them" or "Hell no, Microsoft isn't going to support Sony," . . . . Please stop posting because you obviously have no idea what you are talkinga bout. (BTW, Sony was one of the founding members of the DVD consortium).

i dont think ms is all that interested in giving sony royalty fees. which is probably why they are developing dvd 2.0 with toshiba and pushing for digital distribution for movies

Proof please? 8th generation, consoles will have HVD(Holographic Video Disc). Wii's successor will obtain HD-DVD. Hopefully M-Soft doesn't rush 720. HVD is not fully usable yet.

It'd be a ßitch if Sony got HVD and Microsoft uses digital download or Blu-Ray. Sont fanboys will annoy everybody with teh powerz of HVD.

Nope, the next Xbox will be DD only, then you all will have to succumb to the overpriced HDD's that MS will try to sell you. :twisted:

500 Gig hard drive for only $299!! What a deal! Better throw in that wireless network adaptor for $150 for good measure!! :D

You: Thank god it has a built in Blu-ray player! I won't need to buy an add-on to that.

MS: Oh but to get BD-Live capability you must buy our BD-Live add-on for $80! A real bargain!! :twisted:

You: NOOOOOOOOO!!!!:cry:

Well blu ray is still far from being the standard for games and movies. So nobody really knows how much longer will it be when blu ray becomes the standard. But in 5 years or so, I don't see why won't the next Xbox will have blu ray.

But here's another question, will the next Nintendo have blu ray? Kinda weird how the answers are immediately different.

Ms will most likely have Blu ray and able to dl full games. for ppl who have highspeed internet will be able to buy games on blu ray or dl them. as for ppl who dont have highspeed internet, they will be able to buy hard copy version.

but with comcast wanting to put a cap , things maybe different about buying games online vs hardcopy. i know timewarner is interested in caping ppl also. only time will tell.

Sony doesn't force you to buy anything. The Blu-ray player is included with the system, which is much better than having to buy an addon. Including something with the hardware is not forcing anyone. That's like saying, I bought a new car and they FORCED me to buy a steering wheel!

Don't you also wish MS "FORCED" you to buy a rechargable battery for the controller?

No need for blueray- dont buy it,while SONY FORCES YOU TO BUY IT

SolidTy

Sony doesn't force you to buy anything. The Blu-ray player is included with the system, which is much better than having to buy an addon. Including something with the hardware is not forcing anyone. That's like saying, I bought a new car and they FORCED me to buy a steering wheel!

M$ forced me to have DVDROM in my 360!

WHY!?

EDIT : I just checked, THERE'S UNWANTED BUTTONS ON MY 360 CONTROLLERS!

WHY!?

WWWWWWHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!?

lol great post. i agee with you.

I really hate that red and yellow button (Gladly replace them with a Blue Skittle and a GIJoe SnakeEyes head). Also, he's right, I have a steering wheel forced on my car. This epidemic is getting out of hand, lol.

But you dont have to add it if you dont need it. Thats why you can get Xbox 360 and play all games for like 200$

Don't you wish MS "FORCED" you to buy a wireless network adapter :lol:

Don't you also wish MS "FORCED" you to buy a rechargable battery for the controller?

Sure. That's a dream world where the new cows, called lemmings for some reason this gen don't see it.

And what's will all three companies FORCING me to buy a TV or Display unit to play them on? Also, FORCING me to get electricity turned on at my house.

What's with all the force-age?

No, it won't. Blu-Ray will soon fade away like the laserdisc.

Possibly, but between then and now they may find a propriety format that allows for even more space or faster load times.
