However, I can't help but keep up with all the new stuff the consoles are going to be doing.

I just thought of something:
These Blu-Ray things have a LOT of space on them, right? Well, wouldnt it be possible to include a burner type mechanism inside the console, and when you want to save your game it just writes it to the CD? And it can even be doen in the same fashion CD-RW's are, so that you can write, delete, and rewrite things.

It sounds perfectly logical to me. This way you combine the game and a memory card into one thing, and you don't need a harddrive
they don't do that because then you could hook up a burner to your computer and accidentally ruin the game by changing the data, theres a large number of reasons why it isn't done. not to mention the fact that a cd can only be burned for a number of times


but DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN....54 GB? wow, and to think, just 5 years ago, the Playstation used normal CDs.
