Uhh... no?

Risk their entire game business? Guess you forget about the PS1, PS2, and PSP. And even if they did, has it worked out? Uhh... yeah. They won the format war, and the PS3 is selling much healthier since then.

The only people who believe sony 'risked their gaming business for Blu-Ray' are people who fail to see that there was no risk there, simply an opportunity that presented itself, and worked out for the better of the company as a whole.

Well we disagree then. Not that the PS3 will thrive. It will. However if HD had won, things might have turned out a lot less rosy. After losing 2/3 of all money the PS brand had made from all time, they got the BR.victory and turned the PS3 brand around. In that time they also killed off B/C, and dethroned themselves as the undisputed kings of the gaming world. That my friend is risk. It all worked out, but they did risk the gaming division. In your own words, you said they saw an opportunity. So you made my arguement. They took a risk in the name of business. So did M$.it's all business.

BAM! There it is!
