Really? because that goes against my personal experience and most arguments against the PS3
Yes I'm not an IT fucking expert so I'm a dumb fanboy wow good argument
Oh and by the way I have a 10 meg router and it works much better then my PS3
PS: I don't have Burnout Paradise so I've never had an update take more than thirty seconds
ok so i am right, you've gotten all your info from a planetary object and using the fanboy tag was very apt
you obviously have no clue what you are actually talking about and are using the aforementioned planetary object to spout out your arguments

I doubt it. Blu-ray... it's not that revolutionary.
sorry but let's see a dvd do full 1080p, it can't do that on a standard dvd-9, also there's the storage aspect of it
Storage, which to be perfectly honest, is not needed. An hour and a half movie can fit perfectly well onto a normal DVD and the high definition only matters if you have the fancy TV to go with it.
not at 1080p it can't or even anything above 480p, most of the time to fit on a dvd-9 most movies have to be compressed a bit and therefore a loss in quality

Back to the topic a bit more:
Think for a second....Neither party would want this! a hardware update for the 360 would be silly seeing as it's an old console, at least the oldest of this generation, a hardware update like a blu-ray player just wouldn't seem worth the cost, development, persuading game developers to start doing things for blu-ray too, it's just not worth it, if it was going to happen they would have a easier and more profitable time using a blu-ray system in their next console. Not that Sony would want them doing that. the PS3's biggest wow feature is that it's blu-ray, for the masses, the only difference between PS3 and xbox? dvd is old blu-ray new so blu-ray must be better so PS3 is better cause blu-ray!*, So PS3 wouldn't want to lose it's greatest selling point, the fact that it's the only console to have blu-ray! as for letting Microsoft use blu-rays in the next generation.... pfft. Microsoft are the biggest arseholes going when it comes to this sorta thing, if i was sony i would give the rights to Nintendo aswell just to rub it in the xbox's face.
Oh and yes blu-ray quality is MUCH better when watching movies, but in my opinion there isn't any difference between my xbox version of prototype running through component and my brothers on ps3 through HDMI, which for the more clever of you who could work this out, as a gaming medium blu-ray isn't worth it, for sameish quality at a higher price. so why would microsoft want this?
actually there's a few things wrong with that
1 you don't have to code any differently for blu-ray, it's just a storage medium. in fact you will probly have to code less cause you don't have to worry about the size and/or compression
2 using blu-ray allows the developer to have more stuff, project gotham racing was going to feature dynamic weather and lighting effects, aka different weather and changing daylight, however they couldn't do that cause of the size limits of the dvd disc that the 360 uses
3 as for games looking better that's the coders' fault, they can make them look the same but they choose not to cause they want the easy way out.
4 there can be a different in how they look depends a lot on the amount of compression used compared to the movies
