yeh, poor MS! funny isnt it that thier keynote last month was to say that who ever has third part support wind the console war and that they have it and they will win it....
then this all happens.
Microsoft are 'thinking' about BRD.. apparently if the customer wants it they will consider it... WAKE UP!! we want it, we have it.
i wish companies like MS would take the bloody stick out of their arse (and i do inc Sony on some issues here too). just because the PS3 has BRD that doenst mean that the 360 has to have a different format...
maybe one day we will be able to play games againts each other on the consoles.. not all, but a few choice games. this would be a step in the right direction.
Microsoft should take BRD now.. not wait for months before it really bites them in the arse, but take it now.
because if they dont and games start getting bigger and better and start requiring HDD and disk space, some third parties maybe looking else where for their next killer title. rumour is that GTA5 will be an exclusive on PS3 for this reason.
Microsoft have enough money (probably 20x over with fluff in pocket to buy another few hundred companies) to buy everyone with a 360 a ext Hdd (say at least 40 gig) and a BRD player. to expect 360 owners to shell out for these two would be bad imo.
but wouldnt it go amazingly well for MS to do that? not only are they keeping their existing customers happy (which is a big thing) plus from the moment they do that they can start selling the regular 360 with a bigger HDD and BRD.
but they wont..
this time in say 18months, it will be interesting what decisions Microsft has made, the obvious and right choice is right in front of them.. change to BRD, my other 'silly' ideas wont ever happen, even tho my idea is cheaper than bringing out a bigger better new 360, because you would have to launch it as a new console.
Microsft would loose the war as they would be back where the PS3 was last year at Mr Square one... and you know how much they would hate that.
but i honestly think that this whole BRD thing could lend a lot of weight to the PS3 in to this so called console war.
