Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Microsoft to turn Blu Monday?

pretty dumb if you ask me. The games would still be in dvd9 and the bluray/game market has already been captured by the PS3. Especially because every PS3 has bluray and only 1 sku for the 360 would have bluray which could cause consumer confusion.

what happened to "Digital Distribution is the way" or "Blu-Ray will be obsolete in * years" (insert years)???

 

Lol, I love how Microsoft is trying to "upstage" Apple. This will be the biggest ass-whipping since the launch of Zune 



Soriku (Feb 10/08): In 5 years the PS3/360 will be dead.

The add-on makes more fiscal and physical sense to me. I would love it. It would hopefully be much less than the cost of stand alone player.



I am not sure how this would be trying to upstage apple.



That would take the wind out of PS3's sails, at least for me. Maybe it would just plain take the wind out of PS3 sales? Who knows. People might want a price cut over blu ray, so it could potentially hurt the 360...

I see M$ is playing catch-up again.

 what are you talking about?? Adding something that the competition already has for a while for MORE money is CLEARLY innovation.

 

This will be HUGE news for M$. Heck, they think so too, considering this is the new that they think will overshadow IPhone launch. :P
