You know, I just thought of something. The Eurogamer article about the Sony-Gaigai deal has a point. 30fps games on a streaming service would be bad. Sure it might work for demo's now, but it would be horrible for everything else, including BC (most games are sub 60fps). What if Sony has a 60fps requirement or benchmark set for next gen? This will also allow them to further push their 3D initiative, in both the living room space but personal (HMZ-T1) space as well.
Mandating 60fps would be a horrible mistake, which is exactly why Sony won't do it. =P
Pretty sure it wasn't just Sony. It was the BDA and their overall pursuit in seeing the BRD succeed.
It was just Sony. I'm sure BDA was in favor of the move since they didn't lose anything on the decision, but it was Sony's call.
Dude without PS3 it could have been very different. It was the cheapest and best bluray player on the market.
Nah, blu-ray looked to win regardless. The format war would have just dragged on longer.
Do we really need 4GB DDR5? Split memory pools of DDR5 and DDR3 that bad?
I dont agree.
Though both have benefits, if you can pull off a UMA, it's probably the best route to take.
