Well it will have to happen at some point or time, its like a company saying 'We are not supporting DVD! CD-ROM FTW!' its laughable same in this case, a new medium or technology that is going to replace current tech has to be backed.
I look forward to an external blu-ray drive for my 360 saves me buying a PS3 at 3x the cost.

For it to be truly useful. It needs to replace the internal DVD since games can't use the external. No shortage of reports that game devs want more single disc storage. 50 GB outta do, and beats the hell outta a game having to ship on 4-6 DVD's.

"l Iook forward to an external blu-ray drive for my 360 saves me buying a PS3 at 3x the cost."
Hmm, 40 gig PS3 - £300. 360 Core - £150
Now, lets say the drive costs £100 (which it will probably exceed) - racks up the 360 cost to £250. Add on the £120 for a 120 gig HDD and it comes up to £370.
When, for a similar price, buy a 40 gig ps3, upgrade its HDD WITHOUT voiding your warranty with ANY choice of 2.5" SATA hdd with free online gaming, hmm where is the winner?
