Even if they never make their money back directly from the gaming business, the PS3 won the HD format war for Blu Ray. They will easily, indirectly make their money back that way.

Blu-ray was always going to win the format war vs HD-DVD.

 

Blu-ray was losing before the PS3's release, I don't see how its $599 players could have beat a $199 HD DVD player.

 

 

Because cheaper does not always mean better, often means that the product is indeed "cheap"ly made. BluRay had way too many companies backing it for HDDVD to compete. This was due mostly to the PS3's install base. Back when DVD was coming to fruition, many people's first DVD player was indeed PS2 as it was a DVD player and a console, multi functionality is the future.
