wait what? sony makes all the games now? i have never heard the "blu ray means longer games" arguement before. I have however heard the "blu-ray means more content" spin. If you don't agree that more space allows for more content, then, well, you're an idiot. However sony can guarantee all the content they want, but as long as developers don't use the available space, there isn't very much they can do about it..
I certainly remember the talka few years back that games we're nearing the limit the DVD could handle, but the truth as is see it is thus.
1.games are expensive to make 2.the longer and more content-containg you make a game, the more expensive.
3.gamers have shown a very willing attitude towards bying short, rather shallow games.
as long as you (and me) show no doubts in eating up short, near barebone games, companies will in most cases go cheap
and give us exactly what's absolutely needed, but not an inch more.. there are some acclaimed, yet almost laughably short games
on the 360 aswell(my only console this gen thus far btw)
p.s. if Sony's in-house games don't show this promised content explosion on the other hand, then it's time to question what blu-ray is doing this gen.
