cept for the fact that both consoles offer HD streaming codecs so why would you even care

I’m 360 only and I don’t see myself getting a PS3 at all (heck, I haven’t even gotten around to getting a PS2....)

The other question isn’t whether or not MS will develop BR games.  It’s a question of whether the third party developers will.  That becomes an economics question, whether there are enough BR xboxes to justify releasing a game on BR (since it’ll sell less, since there are fewer players).  It might be possible for devs to release two versions, a DVD version and a BR version.  The latter might have higher quality textures or more levels, but again, you get into the economics of the cost of developing two versions.  My guess would be that it most likely won’t be worth it, but I’m sure someone will try.

Unfortunately, the answer to this question is usually no. It’s like that whole hard disk issue. Right now since the hard disk isn’t standard on the 360, the developers aren’t allowed to make a game that requires the hard disk. This figures to carry over to the BluRay format too.

Im just waiting for Little Big Planet.

then any other system out there will be pwn3d.

It’s up to MS to update their firmware in a timely manner.

LOL

Countdown

It’s debateable how much people are going to actually bother making their own levels.  But this’s a shot at doing something new and something to look forward to for fall. 

I’m hoping Sony ties in Home’s achievement system to points redeemable for picking up stuff in that virtual world...that’s a huge incentive for ppl to use Home alongside playing games more alongside whatever subscription model they want to entice people with for buying virtual goods. 

But I’ll settle for in-game XMB sometime this year. 

I think there is already proof of that.  Somewhere on Kotaku.

I’ve read that too, I won’t believe it until it actually exists.

They’ve been talking about Home so long, it’s almost vaporware.

Last bit of shameless promotion...lol.  Waiting for this thing’s been an eternity.

hmmm..why’s that not working (?)
