[QUOTE="NeoGen85"]I don't think Sony would allow Microsoft to use their Blue Ray technology. lolhiryu3
Actually Sony sent an Invite to Microsoft and Toshiba to offer their technology with Blu-=ray to enhance their hardware line up and to try and push away HD DVD a while ago. I need to find the link for that. It was on Tomshardware.com
Your absolutly right on that one. It was on an artical here in gamespot and was discussed a thousand times on systems wars.
Microsoft has nothing to lose by offering a blu-ray add on for the 360.
If anything Microsoft has everything to gain. Lets say blu-ray is the next gen format and hd-dvd dies out, all pc games will eventually be through blu-ray and the drives for your pc and windows operating systems that support it with drivers means big dollars for games for windows and such.
Sony themselves wouldnt really be hurt because im sure there are certain royalty fees they get from anyone selling a blu ray player and if this helps Sony edge out hd-dvd then they rollin in the money.
Everyone wins in that regard.
Getting blu ray in the homes of millions has obviously been sonys plan from teh get go with teh ps3, im sure someday it will be a fun gaming machine as well but with out a doubt its all about the blu ray first with that company.
