i hear you…i’m in no rush.
& i’m not a hardcore gamer that plays like 4-5hrs a day.
i probably play that a week or less.
as far as upscaling that is pretty stupid, but i have a upscaling DVD player now so no biggie it would stay on duty & the PS3 would just be games & blueray.
the thing that i think Ps3 has over xbox is that it is an internal blueray reader…meaning that developers have the ability to program with pretty much no limitation due to the size of the blueray. from what i read there are only a few games that are close to meeting the ceiling of the DVD size storage. but just think 3-4yrs from now.
since xbox is just a DVD reader & the HD ad-on is player only…they pigeon holed themselves to DVD size games.
yes there is a chance that they may not develop games that flow over the normal DVD size…BUT PS3 gives them that flexability & option to explore developing games that start to unilize that space.
imagine a GTA game developed on a media bigger then a DVD…it would put san-andreas to shame.
like i said it may never be an issue but from articles i read…developers have show intrested in testing waters of larger games on the blueray discs.
