and is the 360 selling well for it's price and is the ps3 selling well for it's price
answer the question dont be rude
If you saw that Killzone 2 trailer earlier today you know the awnser to this. GG say's each level is running 2GB of data at the least, and this is with compression. That is not to say it could not be done on DVD if the PS3 used that format. The game could easly be made with about 7 DVD's, but that is not really acceptable. Other PS3 titles are also showing just how important Blu-ray is for th high def gaming experiance.
Heavy Rain is another game that is going to use a massive amount of data. Not only are they using texture levels towards the Killzone 2 level, but they are also using multiple branching points. That means a lot of different locations, and a vast game filled with very hi-res textures, and audio. Little Big Planet shows the muscle of Blu-ray with tons of tutorial videos, and thousands of textures at your disposial. This game would be on 2 DVD's at the least, and the create mode would have to be downsized. Resistance 2 also does a great job of showing just how big a game can be thanks to Blu-ray. It is basically a AAA single player FPS, an online FPS with more depth than a UT game, and an MMOFPS.
This year was just the start of why Blu-ray was a must in the PS3. Gamers will love the idea of Blu-ray in the PS3 10 years from now. It was a little ahead of its time at the beginning, and people are scaared of change. But with games like Metal Gear Solid 4, Little Big Planet, Killzone 2, and Heavy Rain showing what a differance Blu-ray makes, I can garentee that everyone will come to love the format for gaming.
As far as sales go, I wish the 360 was doing better. PS3 is just amazing selling the way it is with the limited amount of HQ games and the hig price tag. Both systems really need to do good, and bring HD gaming to the forefront. Hopefully the NXE and Home can generate some interest in these things for next year. If not a PS3 price cut to $299, and the best line-up any console has ever seen in a single year should be able to get things moving in the right direction.
Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.

Future??? Dude, I've been using Blu-Ray for gaming for last couple of years now, it's definitely not "FUTURE" anymore. ;)
It's like people still saying "next-gen"... GET WITH THE PROGRAM!

I'll be genuinely surprised if all the consoles next gen that are using a disc-based format use something else than Blu-Ray.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
