Fox Filmed Entertainment, a motion picture outputting division of News Corp predicted that the upcoming battle of blu-ray and HD-DVD is a one-sided war.
Speaking with Reuters Media and Advertising Summit in New York, co-chairman James Gianopulos said, "In terms of the number of companies involved, the PS3 momentum and the level of content that is committed to Blu-ray, it does seem to have a pretty strong lead. We believe that Blu-ray not only has the superior technology and backing in terms of strength to market but also the superior content protection."............click article for more
Seeing as Sony has the backing of so many game developers, I kind of saw this coming. Blu-ray has so much potential and with especially this much support from the film industry, I have no doubt that Blu-ray will be the primary next-gen medium. And as Blu-ray players go mainstream, it will only make people strive to purchase a PS3 along the way.
When PS2 released with the DVD player, people flocked towards it consider they could get a 2 consoles (PSX,PS2) with a DVD player for a bottom dollar price tag for all 3 machines.
Now, as Blu-ray goes mainstream people will be flocking towards the PS3 as a safe and cost-effective alternative to buying a individual Blu-ray player. Why not buy PSX, PS2, and PS3 w/ the Blu-ray Player + DVD Player? After looking at what the PS3 will be delivering it terms of hardware mediums, I think a slightly higher price then the Xbox 360 is justified.
