I live in France, everybody buys PS3 for games. Nobody cares about the bluray thing. And that's because of the bluray that the PS3 was expensive. So the guy who say "but but but because of the blu-ray", because of the bluray the machine was too expensive at first. If PS3 was less expensive it would be higher... |
You realize that PS3 is the same price as an X-Box 360 right now right? If it had no blu-ray, a lot of PS3 exclusive games (like MGS4) would not have stayed exclusive because then they would have designed the game for a smaller storage medium, thus making it possible to play on 360.
Plus, I don't think the price of PS3 would be any different with or without blu-ray. It's only cutting into Sony's profits.
You can't ignore the fact that many early PS3's were bought as cheap blu-ray players. If they were bought solely for games, then PS3's tie ratio (software sold per hardware sold) would be just as high as 360's, but it's not. In fact PS3's tie ratio is lower then XB's, PS2's, 360's, GCN's, and PS1's, and only just above Wii's (Which laregly sold to a more casual crowd).
