i hope it something i can hold on too, instead of Download only ...if i'm paying $60 for a game, i better have something too say i pay $60 for, and not just some file that can be erase ...i already hate paying for DLC, feel like i'm begin rip off from companies already especially since how much space a Blu-Ray disc has, they can just stuff that in the disk
- yeah bruh, ive read a few articles on it over the past 3 years predicting that the next step after bluray wont be a physical
disc item. if the projection for HVD was closer i wouldnt think so, but if their projections are so far out and the fact that no company has even made 1 disc yet, it just doesnt sound like its going to happen for gaming systems. add to that the fact that Sony isnt even using all of the capacities of a BluRay and Microsoft is still on DVD's
- and actually....when you add it all up we're basically already there with music (ITunes, Ipod, MP3's, Amazon). Xbox Marketplace, streaming movies/tv shows from Netflix and other types of services, then factor in the new PSP, i'd say download only games is if not the next step its the step after next.
