PS3 might help the adoption of Blu-Ray, but it's rather unlikely it'll become the Blu-Ray player of choice, just like the PS2 wasn't the DVD player of choice. You can already buy a Blu-Ray player for $150-$300--including ones made by Sony. It'll only get cheaper. If Blu-Ray does take off (and if they do, they really have to go away from that ghastly ugly packaging), the PS3 will be a small fraction of players sold worldwide. Hell, PS2 sold 120 mil units and it still made up only a fraction of worldwide DVD players. As much as we may like video games here on this site, video game systems do not drive the electronics industry. Never have, never will. It's just realism. |
Blu-Ray packing is neither ghastly nor ugly. It's just blue and has different dimensions from DVD packaging.
Jeez, picky at all?
