Prove it's essential?

If they're not essential, Sony can build ps3 without those patents.

You miss the point.  The PS3 isn't essential.

You can make videogame systems without those patents.  See the Wii or 360.

That it's essential for the product Sony wants to make is irrelevent.  What matters is if its essential for the Industry.

Otherwise there is no such thing as a "non essential" patent.  Since all anyone would have to do is say "I want to make a product that involves their patent, and since that's the product I want to make, it's essential!"

But the Bluray is, since it's a standard, and these patents regard the Bluray player.

It's a standard, but it's not the Industry Standard.

Again.  Gamecube discs were a specific standard.... just like Blu-ray... and they were patented.
