I love my PS3. Don't really care if it loses Sony money as long as I get good games. ;)

You can't blame them. I mean, as awesome as PS2 is (!@#$% awesome console), they are going to need money for the PS3, and they can't really expand on the PS2 without making it like the PS3, so there really isn't anything to do with it.

Though, I'm sure it's possible to further on the PS2 a bit more, they are going to focus on their next-gen console much more. :(

I was wondering when they'd hit that mark. I wonder what they'll do for the PS4 in 10 years time or whenever...

Grimace is the demiurge, the creator. From him all things in McDonaldland have sprung. He is not a sin, he's not a menu item, he's just Grimace. He exists. He rolls his lidless eyes and flaps his lipless mouth, formless and terrible, a protean idiot thing from the depths of pre-history.

They invented the technology, they get licensing fees for the players and movies made.

The PS3 will pick up eventually. I think it's in a Dreamcast situation, but I'm fairly sure they'll get out of it, and it will sell decently. Not as well as the 360, but still really well.

Being in a Dreamcast situation... not lookin' good. But I loved the Dreamcast...
I actually hope that they do just about pull through, because it gives the Video game market some challenge and variety.

The latest console era is a joke. Video Games have similar costs to make as Movies do, and it is getting seriously out of control. The only reason Sony and Microsoft can afford to get away with it is because they earn so much money elsewhere. The next console era is either going to have to take a step back and realise they can't actually afford to make any more upgrades, and should instead just focus on making the existing hardware cheaper.

I love my PS3. Don't really care if it loses Sony money as long as I get good games. ;)....:) :( :'(

Personally I don't see a big jump between the quality of DVD and Blu ray. Not like there was between VHS and DVD. Id have been happy waiting a few more years with DVD/HD-DVD so something huge could happen.

Probably because you're not using an HDTV.

I didn't see it at first either, then I saw a side by side comparison on an HDTV and I was like O_O

And as such, I am now getting a blu ray drive in my new computer XD

Anyway, I don't think you'll see much happening with HD-DVD.  The production on it stopped.

No, it was on a 32 inch HD flat screen TV thing, the whole deal. Awesome sound system aswell, but thats beside the point really. The image seemed a bit sharper, but not enough to launch a media revolution style thing that DVDs did.

Yeah I know, I just don't think DVDs gonna fade out that quickly. But hey, I might be wrong, i'm only a 17 years old making a guess.

If I recall, Blu-Ray discs hold MUCH more than DVDs.

Not only that, but you can browse menus while you're watching a movie.
