That would be suicide |
Are PS3 owners pissed off that they have 2-4 Sixaxis controllers when new consoles have DS3? Thats the example that fits. Its just an incremental feature, move along folks... nothing to see here. |
until devs started bringing out games on BR format that wont fit and wont work on older models, then Microsofts first 2 consoles would have had a ridiculously short life span, ensuring it was mainlty their loyal consumers who got burned.
The alternative to this is to ensure developers dont allow the BR format to be used and only allowing games that would play on any model 360 and limiting the BR drive to be used as a movie player, this would be seen as a pointless addition in my opinion and a little desperate.
Either way I think it's possible MS may release as new look, slimline, quiter model that touts no RROD at some point but I cannot see it having BR.
