[QUOTE="vaderhater"]It wont be up to Sony weather MS can use Blu-Ray or not. Also MS could buy its way onto the Blu-Ray consortium if it had to. But at least by next gen Blu-Ray will be cheap enough player wise royalty wise and disk wise that it wont be a big deal for MS to use it!

All in thanks to Sony losing Billions on BR beforehand to get it established!:lol: Thanks Sony!:lol:

I can clearly see your non bias.

You have also proven you have a keen grasp on the corporate going ons regarding sony and microsoft.

I think i speak for all of us when i say i will be basing my stock chocses on your keen observations.

I'm not smarter then everyone, i just think i am smarter then the vast majority.

As for you ignoring me, i'm terribly sorry as i held your opinion in high regard and will deeply miss your input to our intellectualy stimulating debates.

Anyway, regarding the issues at hand, microsoft and indeed the whole game industry faces a very real possibility on focusing on the casual market next gen.

If microsoft can keep their investment down they will, and casual games arn't normally the ones to push the envolope when it comes to overall game size.

Microsoft doesn't really need to push blueray either as it does not account for a large earning margin, and if they can keep publishing costs cheep then they can attract the larger publishers more readily.

That's business kid, cheaper investment is better as long as you can get away with it and still charge the same price.

Plus it would make it easier to push DC and eventualy DD (which is the devil) to the mass market.

you would be right, except you aren't.

Like what? And Sony wont let MS use Bluray. Sony dislikes MS and they should.

Walle, POTC:3, No Country for Old Men, Nantional treasure 2, 2001: A Space Odyssey, the dark knight, transformers and 2010: the year we made contact.

ah yes. compare a ps3 designed program running on a gpu to two systems with both a cpu and gpu. makes total sense.

people need to learn how to critically read. im not saying its not possible for these numbers im just saying the data is flawed until proven otherwise with a nonbias comparison.

and this is quite pointless if the ps3 hasnt used this yet.

THe tech was interesting for a bit, it allows for textures to be altered based on shader events.

It was boasted for a while in the PS3 as being "4D" graphics, however it ended up in all practicality, useless.

THe numbers are most likely accurate, this is the exact sort of computation the PS3's cell was made for, but it is mostly useless in gaming.

XBL? the best? last time i checked steam was the bestdolph1073

I like flaunting my money around.

I have every game console and a gaming rig.

I have three Macs and a upper range netbook.

I pay for xbox live four years in advance.

Screw the rules, I have money.

All of the above also makes me immune to losing THE GAME.

...

Anyway yes, Xbox live is nice to have, but not as nice as having 3 PS3s.

Unforcunetly i do not have 3 PS3s, but i do have two.

I enjoy playing video games.

Have i one upped you yet?

Most movies on bluray use the MPEG-4 AVC codec

Technicly the codec is h.264

i don't really see the logic behind your point.

the PSPgo fails because the medium is impractical.

The NATAL and wand fail because motion control fails.

I fail because of my lack to see the corrilation.

I smell some jealousy in this thread.

I smell some delicious bacon.

And by delicious bacon i mean "MGS4".

And by smell i mean "now want to play"
