- Jektal, on 07/07/2008, -5/+76that's a lot of DRM!
/pessimist - galvo, on 07/07/2008, -5/+68Sweeeeet, now we can have 390GB of uncompressed audio and 10GB of actual game data!
/sarcasm - evilcaptain, on 07/07/2008, -5/+58Imagine the PS3 game extras.
A second for second video of the entire game development. Hidden extras include the office christmas party and redundancy day. - ElBeh, on 07/07/2008, -4/+46Typical snobbish Digg comment in response to an immature yet funny Digg comment.
- Claude1971, on 07/07/2008, -1/+38nit-picky jack ass!
- fcrow, on 07/07/2008, -2/+38"Update: Now that the English press release is out, it's less clear whether the new media -- whenever it might come to market -- will work in existing Blu-ray players or not. While "it is possible to maintain compatibility between the new 16-layer optical disc and the BD discs," players would seemingly require a modified optical pick-up mechanism to see the data. We'll learn more on July 13th when Pioneer discusses the breakthrough in detail."
- foxontherock, on 07/07/2008, -3/+38now if I scratch it a very little, I destroy 18 movies and 350 music albums !
- jboettcher, on 07/07/2008, -1/+31most of us can't really see how they ever built a computer in the first place.
- DjOverEZ, on 07/07/2008, -3/+31Yet we still haven't figured out how many licks it takes to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop.
The world may never know... - Striss, on 07/07/2008, -1/+29The extended boxset edition of MGS4 might fit on one of those.
- Taiyaki, on 07/07/2008, -0/+21Did you just flip flop on your own comment?
- dk911, on 07/07/2008, -2/+23Obviously you meant: "Now we can have 180 hours of cut scenes and 10 minutes of actual gameplay."

- SupaDawg, on 07/07/2008, -0/+20Dugg for attacking yourself.
- mooninite, on 07/07/2008, -1/+17You didn't get the memo?
Blu-ray discs are mandated to have a super hard anti-scratch coating on the bottom layer. Every disc sold has this protective layer. It is incredibly difficult to scratch. It was specifically engineered for Blu-ray discs since the data is so close to the outside layer. - Quenlin, on 07/07/2008, -1/+1642.
- inactive, on 07/07/2008, -6/+20Not to be a nit-picky jack ass, but it's not technically Blu-ray, which is a trade-marked name.
- leerayIG88, on 07/07/2008, -3/+17Now we can watch movies in Extra HD.
- phorty40, on 07/07/2008, -0/+12Great now we can have all the TV on every channel for the years 1971-1980 on a limited edition 10 blu ray set!
Oh the joy! - DarkDx, on 07/07/2008, -3/+15Hideo Kojima just found the right disc for MGS5.
- SkippyDoorknob, on 07/07/2008, -1/+13That's because it's microscopic
- GhettoHmbrglr, on 07/07/2008, -0/+11im pretty sure you could fit all six seasons on that disc...
- prisoner24601, on 07/07/2008, -0/+11Two-Face is that you?
- Nicksname1, on 07/07/2008, -1/+11No it doesn't, the article says it will most likely be backwards compatible with existing lenses.
- ACEdigital, on 07/07/2008, -1/+10MGS4 - 400gb edition... now with 1000% more cut scenes!
- v0yeur, on 07/07/2008, -1/+9sucks more for non-readers
- ZenMojo, on 07/07/2008, -2/+10Oh no, a year and a half!^
- Zoids, on 07/07/2008, -0/+8Wow... never thought I'd see that.
- CarStan, on 07/07/2008, -1/+9It still wont be enough for 10 seconds of holographic porn
- theaceoffire, on 07/07/2008, -0/+8Engineering students at Purdue University devised a "licking machine" that showed an average of 364 licks are needed to get to the center.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tootsie_Pop - Bob042, on 07/07/2008, -2/+9Have fun writing that at 4x.
- DarkDx, on 07/07/2008, -0/+7*Goes to pre-register holographic.porn*
- mooninite, on 07/07/2008, -1/+8You didn't get the memo, either?

Oh, and you have a Blu-ray burner? Wow, good job spending $25 a disc to burn and then you somehow managed to scratch a very hard to scratch surface. Did you take your discs and run them over the Rocky Mountains or something? - djfreex, on 07/07/2008, -1/+8Minutes after the announcement, Kojima stated that the space is not going to be enough for MGS 5.
- Quenlin, on 07/07/2008, -3/+10FYI: One of the bridges in San Andreas takes up a total of 10 meg.
- TimDigg, on 07/07/2008, -1/+8Yea, the same way blank dvd media costs 6 times more than cd media.....
/s - inactive, on 07/07/2008, -0/+6Bluray's scratch protection is phenomenal
- Number23, on 07/07/2008, -3/+9How about someone work on the BR seek times, so we can dispense with the PS3 game installs
- galvo, on 07/07/2008, -5/+11Because I bought a game to play it, not to watch it. Oh yeah, it's a PS3! It's not meant for gaming, only watching Blu-Ray MOVIES, ahhhh *****.
- DarkDx, on 07/07/2008, -1/+7I see what you did there.
- inactive, on 07/07/2008, -0/+642
- RiverBelow, on 07/07/2008, -1/+7Thanks, Ms. Frizzle!
- cadmiumpaint, on 07/07/2008, -0/+5this could be amazing for archival data storage. Anyone working with video, huge images,any kind of design....the potential is pretty cool.
- whiledo, on 03/25/2009, -1/+6Can you clarify? As far as I know, HD heads act the same as optical drive heads. Both have a head on an arm that can position the part that reads the data at one spot for each track on the disc. The disc is spun and the arm just moves the head the appropriate distance from the center from the center and waits for the spot on the disc to pass under the head. Of course, one big difference is that HDs can have multiple platters.
- Ravatar, on 07/07/2008, -1/+6I'd say I buy entertainment for... entertainment. If that means a game with a wealth of highly-entertaining story cutscenes, then cool.
- ZenMojo, on 07/07/2008, -1/+5They already are.
- Quenlin, on 07/07/2008, -1/+5Good, no more excuses about how they ran out of space on the disk.
- mooninite, on 07/07/2008, -0/+4Blu-ray reads faster than a DVD. Google it.
If half of the people that commented would just read the little Wikipedia page on Blu-ray, it would have led to a much more engaging discussion. - Renian, on 07/07/2008, -1/+5I did. The only other relevant one talks about how many licks it would take to get to the center of a tootsie pop. I'm asking about the disc.
