Sony sacrificed PS3 sales to establish the next format for video. Of course they knew the cost of putting Blu Ray in PS3's would be attrociously high. But the thought of having licensing rights on the next video standard outweighed any loss in the gaming division.
And in some ways it payed off since it allowed Blu-ray to beat out HD-DVD and in some ways it hasn't worked out since Blu- Ray isn't going to ever be the dominant format.
I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do.
Chrizum is the best thing to happen to the internet, Period.
Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!
Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.
