    New article about the format war from EETimes:

    http://tinyurl.com/y5p4ky

    Internet discussions on Sony's Blu-ray show a general dislike for the high-definition format that's a key component in the company's overall strategy for grabbing a big share of the high-definition consumer electronics market, a research firm says.

    Exactly as I have always said. There was no need for Sony to force a Blu-Ray player on people who wanted a PS3. It made the console much more expensive for no purpose whatsoever. What percentage of games do you think will need all that space?

    I don't think it's a matter of need but a matter of availability. 4 or 5 years ago what game would need a DVD? Not many if any at all but most can easily eat up that amount of space now.

    Well what conquest was getting at was how many games need 25gb of next gen dvd space right now?
    Donatello - The Shredder? Michelangelo - Maybe all that hardware is for making coleslaw?
