I wonder if there's any data on which is stealing more sales from DVD... Downloads or Blu-Ray.

Next-Gen, every game should be downloadable online for $5-$10 cheaper than the retail copies, and should be transferable to other consoles.



PREDICTIONS:
(Predicted on 5/31/11) END of 2011 Sales - Xbox 360 = 62M;  PS3 = 59M;  Wii = 97M

Sadly, you are probably wrong on both counts.

Downloads will be the same price as retail copies.  They will never allow resale of downloaded games.

So....they're choosing online over DVD?

Meaning that despite the "terrible economy", people are upgrading to a monthly, high speed internet, *ahem* NOT A NECESSITY BUT A LUXURY *ahem* service and on top of that, using another monthly video rental service...in stead of going out and spending $10 on a DVD?

That makes perfect sense....

Oh common...

Spend $10 for ONE DVD or $13.99/month for as many video's as you want?

Well on second thought, I guess you would make sense if you only plan to watch one dvd a month.

Actually, Netflix is $8.99/mo. Hulu is free.

 They are already transferable aren't they? My brother and two of my friends have Pixel Junnk Monsters and SUper Stardust HD on their PS3's that I bought. I think a few PSn games may not be able to be shared like warhawk. But most can be.
