"Bluray was included in the PS3 for the wrong reasons(read, not for gaming), and it's removal would help the price immensely." In case you didn't know, PS3 games come out on Blu-ray discs, and it's not gonna be long before developers start using the extra 10-20 (single layer 25 gigs, double layer 50 gigs) over the HD-DVD (single layer 15 gigs, double layer 30 gigs). Those extra 10-20 gigs will give you lower loading times, faster graphics, distant drawing and overall better graphics. They might even be used to give the PS3 players extra content if we speak about multi-plat titles. And with the momentum BR has built up against HD-DVD, the PS3 might (freaking WILL) actually benefit from the BR drive inside greatly. Oh, and in order to read HD-DVD with your 360 you need to buy an external HD-DVD drive that costs 200$ so that brings the price up to 600$ which is the same price of a PS3 with a BRP inside..
Planning on getting a PS3 sometime in July-August.
