Why Blu-Ray is bad for the PS3

"Resistance vs Halo 3 would work better, right?" I would say yes but Halo is not HD so it does not count.

Blu-ray is needed this gen and thats a fact, multiple games on the 360 take up more then one disc. The guys who made PGR4 already had to change their game to make it fit on DVD9, the rockstar VP Dan Houser said that the lack of HDD and the small disc size of DVD9 is a limit on what they wanted to do.

Most multiplatform games look better on the PS3, the only people having problems are EA and Ubisoft, and they suck and just toss out as many games as possible with as little man hours as they can manage.

The new CoD is better on the Ps3 then the 360, better lighting, better textures and some other stuff. This was even mentioned on a 360 site preview for CoD4.

The new UT game will be limited by DVD9, the guys at Epic have basically said this. They plan to fill the blu-ray disc if they have enough time, over 40 maps last i heard.

If its a fact then there shouldn't be any "next-gen" games on any other platform. Did you refuse to own a playstation because there was disc swapping? 

Oh, and you could also claim that devs have to cut down their games because there isnt more than 512mb of RAM, or they have to cut down the enemies on screen because the GPU isnt powerful enough. Game development is about compromises and working within the confines of the hardware - something devs on all platforms have to do. With the PS3 disc space isnt as much of a concern, but the dabate is wether or not the extra cost is worth that benefit.

And to all the people who still think the PS3 is the best BR player; get with the times. I think it was around spring where reviewers started calling a few new units better at playback than the PS3, and a new Panasonic player just came out thats the bees knees.
