No chance of that. Sony would be investigated for anti-competitive strategy. Plus Microsoft wouldn't be pushed around by Sony like that.

Sony would have licensed Blu-Ray technology to Microsoft for a standard fee that any other company would pay, with the same restrictions as anyone else.

Sony wouldnt have licenced anything, sony dont own blu-ray. They are one of many members (one of the larger member though or largest)
 
Must be a guilty pleasure for me, but watching fanboy arguments is like watching eastenders - I know it's crap but I just can help myself once in a while.

Anyway, I forgot to add a point to make about what console sways it for most/all people - what one's pals are playing on/going to buy! Once the group mentality starts, everyone wants to play BF4 MW etc with their mates.

Fanboys are great, dont know why people moan. It's all part of the fun.

Just a thought. Do you think part of the deal of Sony licensing blu-ray to Microsoft has lead to the mess MS has found themselves in in terms of having to install all games from disk, online authentication, used games etc. You know... "yes, you can have a blu-ray in your new system but we insist on the following conditions being met...".

Would Sony have been able to demand certain things that push MS in to a corner? I mean, they had to use blu-ray in this new console didn't they?

Nope because Sony =! BDA

EDIT: Sorry beaten many times, didnt realise I wasnt on the last page. Sorry :o

The ammont of free publicity Microsoft are getting because of the pre owned games thing and sharing games I can only see it working in there benefit because I can see them in a month changing and say we have listened to the community and we are changing our stance on it and everybody will be lapping it up.

Will Gaikai cloud gaming be included with PS+ or will it have its own subscription? Does anyone have any info on that?

Was pondering over this last night.

One way things could go is an additional subscription, which makes the most sense.

Another is to add it to PS+ which to me gives way too much access to a large catalogue of games for next to nothing which just doesn't sound plausible given the only quite recent addition of PS2 classics to the PS Store.

The only way I can imagine the above PS+ method working is if it only gave access to games listed in your trophy stats.

Finally, it could work like a store where you purchase individual games from the service, probably at a lower price than those of the Store.
