Blu-ray will not win the format war. As it is only Sony format.
How did Beta lose the Video tape format war? The **** industry chose VHS.
So with the HD or Blu-Ray or even the one up from that… It would be hard to say that the **** industry needs that much on one disk.
I think both will be around as Sony is trying to pull a Microsoft. UMD didn’t really work out for Sony to much but it doesn’t stop them from making psp games now does it?
Nothing is going to happen to the PS3 games. It’s like the UMD or Nintendo optical disks. If developers want to make games for the PS3, they’ll have to do it in Blu-ray, whether they like it or not.

Blu-ray is not going to lose the format war because it’s already outselling HD-DVD by a margin of at least 3:1, perhaps more. The top 3 movie studios all support Blu-ray, and the 4th (Warner Bros) supports both Blu-ray and HD-DVD. The only major movie studio that supports HD-DVD is universal.
The **** industry may have controlled the Beta vs. VHS war, but it’s not going to control the Blu-ray vs. HD-DVD war. It’s not even going to make a dent. HD-DVD have been around for 2 year or so, and how many **** movies are in HD-DVD? Very few. For that matter, very few **** studios even support HD-DVD. The whole point of the **** industry is to put out as many movies as possible while using the least amount of money. By using HD-DVD, they’re going to lose a lot of money, so most will stick to DVD.
sigh, the **** industry WILL NOT decide this format war… i mean, when was the last time you bought a **** DVD? With **** so easily accesible on the internet, it is less of a factor now than it was during the Beta Max/VHS days… and the only reason **** went to VHS is because Sony refused to give them the liscensing… Sony has learned from there mistakes and are giving them the required liscences…
Blu Ray will win this format war because it is superior to HD-DVD. Ya, the viewing quality is the same but the fact that Blu Ray can hold more twice as much data as a HD-DVD disc, well, already speaks for itself… Blu Ray is more than just HD movies… eventually, it will be the standard in which PCs come with…
and if I’m wrong, nothing will happen to the games… besides, game companies like blu ray… they don’t need to compress audio files (which make them sound better) and they can pile on so much data into these discs…

No, games will be their, just way less movies. Doesn’t really matter though. Blue Ray is the better tech. We’ll see…
