Hahaha... I saw some beardo ranting about how Blu-ray's victory would spur the comeback of the PS3 last night. He seemed genuinely upset about Sony's console hardships.
It really does make me wonder though.. why didn't the Xbox 360 come with a HD-DVD drive? The main reason I'm siding with Sony is that I don't want to buy a shitty accessory to go with the console to watch HD movies.
Because it would have just increased the price of the console by about the same price of buying the player separately anyway.
It's much better to give people a choice rather than trying to force an HD movie format on them through a gaming console. Then again, the PS3 seems to primarily function as a Blu-Ray player nowadays.
