This "article" is complete speculation yet half the people here are panicking and the other half are talking shit out of their ass.

Which half are you on?

 

The half that can tell the difference between uncompressed and compressed audio/video and will be getting FF13 on Ps3.

Uncompressed video?

lol.

 

Lol? I guess you need a bluray player or somthing.

Have they made a new Blu-Ray player that can read uncompressed video?

We'll it can play 1080P which might be more then what you're used to with the DVD player on your 360.

lmao @ 6 terabytes. You could put every single bond movie on one disk and while your at it every lord of the rings, Friday the 13th and Harry potter.

As long as it's backwards compatible with blu rays I'm all for it.

1080p/24 would be about 150MB of data per second if uncompressed. Please show me a Blu Ray Drive which can read that quickly? *hint* Desktop 7200RPM HDDs couldn't do it /*hint*

Sheesh, can't we just stick with BluRay for awhile? I am just getting going on my BluRay library! Plus, I think disc based media is doomed in the long run anyway. The Zune video marketplace on Xbox 360 has finally proven to me that you can get BluRay quality video instantly streaming over the internet. There is literally almost no difference between that and a BluRay movie and it's instant-on if you have a good connection. I'm really not a big movie collector, so if things went to all download, I'm good with that.

But already looking into a new proprietary format? Come on, Sony.

It was quite a while before logic returned to this thread.

6 TB? I call BS on it. Why would that much be needed for gaming? All they need is a faster blu-ray drive on the ps4. Blu-ray can already supposedly hold up to 200gb or so which is waaaay more than enough for gaming

not enough for uncompressed data. Wow, imagine developing games. Compression? Fuck that.

Who cares? The stuff that is compressed (audio and video, mostly) has virtually no quality loss from the compression (no matter how many PS3 fanatics tell us they can tell MGS4 uses uncompressed audio... on their crappy TV speakers).

 

takes time to compress data doesn't it?

as long as Sony keeps the pirates at bay from the PS4 I say Gung Ho!
I am pretty sure Sony learned its lesson and now with new management the PS4 should be pocket friendly.

the PS4 will use blu-ray
