One thing's for sure...

If Final Fantasy 7: Remake will be 3x bigger than FFXIII... The next Xbox better damn well use Blu-ray, or some other mahoosive disc. 9 discs for a game is just WAY too much.

You can expect the next Xbox console to be able to hold as much or more info as BluRay. What technology it will use is anyone's guess. Possibly HVD's (Holographic Versatile Discs), USB based drive (Flashdrivesque) or direct download. I just don't think Microsoft will want to use BluRay since its Sony tech.

Blu-ray is not Sony tech.

Sony had a role in developing it, yes.

Sony is a board member of the BDA, yes.

Sony did not invent it, and does not own it.

Yeah, evidently Matsushitsa is the largest patent holder in the BRG (ahead of Sony)... which is probably why we'll see Blu-ray in Wii2/HD/Zii/whatever.  Actually, I expect it'll be in the next Xbox also.

But it won't be Blu-Ray, of course. It'll be the Nintendo Optical Disc, all the properties, none of the royalties :)
