| Then again, this looks like the Sega Dreamcast vs. Sony/N64. Microsoft is taking the risk of not backing either of the future formats of Bluray or HDDVD, so the games will be easily pirated. It also doesn't bring too much more to the table, and is really not a "Next-Gen" system, much like the Nintendo Revolution (which looks like garbage). Sony is taking a lot of risks, and if they are able to minimize cost, then they will win. |
I think there is a very good answer about next format by J. Allard in an interview with TeamXbox:
http://xboxmovies.teamxbox.com/xbox/1957/J-Allard-Video-Interview/
Both new format BRD and HDDVD do not exist commercially right now. They are still arguing and improving their technology. So if you include this in your console, you make production cost higher, chances of faulty hardware higher.
Also you made a point about ease of hacking for the console. But I think that deep down, the ease to copy games and such is one of the main reason (albeit not the only one) the original Playstation started to gain momentum. People were like : "Dude buy a PS you can copy PS games". I know lots of people told me that. My last console is a Sega Genesis thought... I might look into next generation. |

| That is true now, but back in the days of the first Playstation, you needed nothing to play burned game. Mod chip came later, of course, as new version of the PS poped on the marked with some protection. |

| Sony once again will overthrow microsoft in the gaming industry. Sony wil obviously have the advantange. Sone stategically paced the date of the release of the ps3 after the xbox 360 so they could take a look at the xbox 360. If they think microsoft has overdone it they will just delay the ps3 release saying they need to do some last minute changes. |
