HD movies needs bigger storage, if it wouldnt have been blue-ray, it would have been something else like HD dvd. It has nothing to do about people being fanboy for sony, it has something to do about the market not being ready to download only but being willing to experience HD movies hense needing a new storage format. Dont forget that company make product to fill a consumer need, its not the way around. I never wanted to sound like I had a xbox 360, but in fact I have one because im a gamer and didnt wanted to missed on some RPGs. About spelling errors please note that I speak, french, english, spanish and not too bad in Japanese, im still taking lesson. So I could care less about doing a few spelling errors. Sales can reflect something on quality only when comparing 2 games in the same type on the same console. Take a game like valkyria chronicle on PS3 or tales of vesperia on 360. It is both really good games and reviews says the same thing, but since it is made toward a specific audience that doesnt reach as much person as an other audience like FPS, you cannot take sales to compare quality. If you compare 2 games like valkyria chronicle on the same console (same number of adopters) then it should help reflect which game is of better quality, but even tho theres still some other factors like publicity.
Another note on bigger storage, I found that it was neat to have bigger storage particularly when playing Star Ocean on 360, when doing a quest at the end (the bunny race quest) I had to switch disc each 5 minutes for 3 hours. Since I play games to relax of my working stress, I even moved the xbox on the couch so I dont have to get up each 5 minutes lol. |
I do agree with the storage issue but we should have moved to downloads, you can get downloads, connect direct and use a memory card to either share or just use your hardrive . taking one hard drive as oppose to 100 blue ray disks or even ten is easier. plus downloads you always own and can't be broken. if your hard drive breaks, buy another redownload it through your account.
Another thing is dvd didn't see blue ray coming out right in front of there faces and go ahead and come out anyway, it's like there trying to stop the future from happening.
why didn't ps3 push the envolope, put in direct connect( like psp go) and use downloads instead? doing this would have really upped M$. most likely would have put them in the led right away.
Look blueray is just a very small gap filler.
downloading is the future, why stop it.
