I think this is half of Sony's problem. The PS3 isn't a game machine that also plays Blu-Ray, it is a Blu-Ray player that can also play games.

That puts it out of the reach of the mass-market, at least for now, as most people won't be buying a Blu-Ray or HD-DVD player for many years yet.

PS3 games are designed to be placed on Blu-Ray discs. It's part of their copy protection, since Blu-Ray burners are not commonplaceyet. (Although probably 1 or 2 years down the track, I expect that to change).

as far as I know there is no PS3 games on blu ray yet. But even when they decide to come on blu ray disc im not going to be unhappy at all. Look at games like Gears of War. They dont need heaps of room to make games that look great. In most cases theres still plenty of room on the disc after the game is finished
