blu-ray just might lose the hd battle yet...

Who cares movies are only like 2 hours long anyway...

yea... but in HD it takes up a lot more memory.

at that time HD-DVD was the more viable choice, but now since Blockbuster is stocking up on BD-ROM, HDDVD only has so much hope. I personally don't care which wins, either way, it'll be years until one becomes the "standard" (like DVD is right now).

well, they aren't just used for movies...

ps3 uses blu-ray right now... the more space the better for future consoles, more space can translate to quite a few things on consoles, better graphics, more sounds/words used by NPC's (instead of 5 or 6 generic lines, they can utilize the space to put in more audio) or longer games...

If its not backward-compatible with my current xbox360 HD-DVD player then screw them money sucking whores. I'm sick of the HD-DVD, Blu-ray discs war and this time I'm not going to get in their crossfire because I might just lose a lot ($$$). But I do like the idea of higher capacity storage (like slipknotphysco said) for longer and better graphic gaming.

No Ps3 games are even near holding their maximum capacity. They already look great but in theory its just wasted space. I for one would choose voiceless acting in some games, as it just works better for my imagination.

i never said they weren't using most of the blu-ray lol.. and since gamers are still utilizing the most space they can manage on a disc, it's more reason to get higher capacity discs <.<

Hopefully this works on 360's. Kinda sucked that GTA was delayed because of not enough of space on DVDs, hopefully this shit will fix it up.

there's no way that's why it was delayed, first, second the devs will not give specifics, so anything you hear is 100% bullshit...

it's gonna be two disc on 360, and one blu-ray disc on ps3.

Im routing for Blu-ray for the win.

[bluntblaze]

first.. who is dev lol. second... since when has the 360 version been on two discs? how would that even work.
