More Information

Was just wondering.........is it feasible(lets take ps3 for example)........to make a blu-ray disk reader or writer for comps which come with ps3 bios and all(lets say it costs 300$) and only sony can manufacture it. So ppl have a choice of console gaming alongwith pc gaming too?? Like consoles for arcade games(tekken anyone) with rts and fps on the pc?? Ofcourse i know that it would need specific configuration(like nvidia 7800gt and all) So, our 8800GTX's downclock or w\e to act like 7800gt?? Am i talking BS?? If this was possible.......it would still not help PC gaming?? Sorry but the trends of PC gaming really make me worry :fou: And ppl who dont need a pc, will buy the ps3s?? Anyway last I heard was Sony was selling ps3s on losses and expect to gain profit from disk sales?? WOuldnt that be the case with this idea too?? Plz share your views. Plz dont flame me(i aint no expert, but would like to hear any technical point of view you guys have on this topic :bounce: )
