Sony had no choice to include blu-ray and other stuffs on the PS3 because their priority was to win the video format war to avoid another betamax history. Hence, the trojan worked for Sony and they won the more important format war in their eyes and lost the videogame format war, which they used to take for granted thanks to ps1 and ps2's immense success.

Thankfully for Sony, PS4 won't be another trojan for a format war because next generation would be use of current bluray format and/or digital download.

PS3 does have motion, though it's half-assed because it was added at the last minute to counter/copy the Wii.
