@nen-suer: Piracy is possible, it's just not cost-effective yet because of Blu-Ray.

Actually that's not exact.

 

Blank Blu Ray costs under 2$ in Japan so the issue isn't the cost to write the Blu Ray.

 

The issue of cracking a PS3 is getting the PS3 to run unsigned code and that problem isn't so easy to solve...

That and downloading 30Gb for a game....

I'm fairl sure that they someone came up with custom firmware in 12/2007... Also, to rip & burn a PS3 game you need a Blu-Ray drive that you can rip & burn it from, so BR cost does have an effect.

But yeah, 30gb downloads over BT sound like a nightmare.

 

EDIT: Apparently MGS4 was 32gb uncompressed, so... Go figure...
