I've been looking around and I cant find anything relating to the next place they'll take Xbox 360 discs..

IMO, Xbox has already lost... HDDVD is dead, and therefor, there will be no room for next gen games. (Forget consoles, its too early to release another console)

I just dont see how they can match up when PS3 hits its maximum disc capacity. I believe we're at 50gb so far, compared to 360's 8gb. Thats 6 xbox discs to equal 1 PS3 disc. and you say disc switching isnt a problem? you can handle taking the disc out and switching it every once in a while? yeah... i totally agree.

But seeing as how physically, a bluray and a dvd are the same size... i guess they could make games on PS3, with 50gb blurays, with a 2 disc game. Math time! 6 dvds=1 bluray... sooo, 2 blurays=12 dvds.. You're willing to buy a game that comes with A DOZEN discs? i dont think so, id rather have 2 discs... less $ to lose...

But wait, we arent done yet. Seeing as how Toshiba bowed out, leaving bluray to become the new format, TDK has been working on something special for us.

Witness: http://news.softpedia.com/news/TDK-200GB-Blu-Ray-Disc-The-world-s-highest-optical-disc-capacity-22753.shtml

Two Hundred Gigabytes... im not even gunna bother converting that one. Sure it says that so far most bluray players are unable to read the new TDK disc. But the format battle ended on Feb 16, 2008, if I did my research correctly. That means its been almost 2 years into bluray and they've released the largest capacity ever on an optical disc format. I give it another year MAX before this is perfected and the possibility of a bigger PS3 game is here...

You will install the game onto the hard drive of your 360 you say? You really wanna spend all that time importing all that onto the harddrive? Either way, the largest 360 HDD i can find so far, (correct me if I'm wrong) is 120gb. This is the smaller of the two options for PS3. And even then, when Bluray reaches full capacity, you will only get to install 2 games on that HDD before its full.

I will give a benefit of the doubt that a larger HDD will be available by that time. But if the HDD for 360 can increase, then so can the HDD for PS3.

And lets not discount the fact that the new PS3s can use laptop HDDs, instead of the proprietary ones for 360. Also, who says the PS3 has to even use a HDD?

With advances being made in SSD technology, PS3 may end up going for SSD right outa the box some time soon. I bring this up, not because I am seeking to write off the 360, but because I'm concerned for the competition. If 360 does lose, (theoretical here) and all the developers jump ship for bigger capacity, that leaves no competition to bring the price of the system (or games) down. I WANT 360 TO DO WELL, if only to keep the market hot.

So I bring it to you, see if you can find a reasonable solution for this, and post it. DVD capacity increasing? Better compression methods? I dont care, debate with me about this please.

P.S. I did my research, please do yours too.

zomg ur all missin out sooo much..

See this is what we need, sony can make BUCKETS of money, nostalgia will sell SOOOOO many games, they cud stop releasing new games for a year, just make old games available on handheld for the first time, and STILL turn a healthy profit.

@ SONY CORP: LISTEN TO THE GAMERS! THEY WANT RETRO GAMES! BRING IT HOME!..

OOOOO i just thot of another sick idea... speaking of home. where are the arcade games in home, they need waaaay more. if u put a couple sega rally games next to each other in the plaza??? ooooooo soooo much fun to be had there. stack up a couple free tetris games, pacman, w/e u want, infact, screw it, add another whole area to home. thats right, build us an arcade... im tired of bowling and fighting to get on a pool table...

@ ASK_story

I suppose your right, i DID like the classic version on PS1, so obviously it CAN be done on a console. but the main thing i liked about diablo was the random maps, MASSIVE amounts of items, and multiplayer. if they could somehow put these into a handheld game, complete with multiplayer support i would buy instantly.

But, as much as I tend to agree with you on the port thing? im extremely nostalgic, as im sure alot of people are, and i would love to see some of my old fave games on my handheld, C&C and FFVII are awsome, im loving it. bring more plox

L2R plox. Duke Nukem is on the list! :D

So far I'm thinking:

Legend of Dragoon

LOTS of Arcade games (asteroids, snake, missle command, galaga, space invaders, blah blah blah u get it)

Diablo 1

Starcraft

Warcraft 2

Grand Theft Auto 1 & 2

Ridge Racer

Desert Strike

Doom (any of em)

Duke Nukem

Vigilante 8

Help me out here, I'm sure that some of these would sell really well. We should lobby Sony to release games asked for by gamers, for gamers.

I'm even willing to spearhead this endeavor.

++ ive been really thinking about this. a NEW diablo wud be SICK on psp. abviously d3 is too big, but if they made a proper multiplayer/single player one, like where u can play ur chars single player as well as multi... instead of like before where it was one or the other..

also, id like to see a newer RTS on psp, theres a big gap in some of the genres on psp. RTS, RPG, and FPS... FPS wont be any good till they launch a second stick tho. HOWEVER. Goldeneye for N64 did ok with it. id probably buy thtat if it had a nice multiplayer. theres alot of retro games that would do really well on psp. it has the power to run alot of em. ive been thinking of making a list of must-haves that havnt came out yet.

i just picked up Red alert and put it on my psp, its pretty good, little hard to get used to (no mouse) but still just as much fun. plus it has the full campaign so ur not just playing skirmishes the whole time.

wudnt it be awsome to just go bust up some unholy demons while ur waiting in line at the movie theater or sumthin?

diablo 1, anywhere u want, anytime u want. the only thing better than that wud be DIABLO 2!

diablo 1 from the psx
