Sony is in talks with console rival Microsoft about offering a Blu-ray drive for the Xbox 360, according to a senior executive.
The Japanese electronics maker has until now touted Blu-ray as an advantage its PlayStation 3 holds over Microsoft's console. Microsoft has backed Toshiba's HD-DVD format and offered an HD-DVD drive that can be plugged into the 360.
But after Sony's victory last month in the high-definition DVD format war, Stan Glasgow, Sony Electronics US president, said the two sides were now talking about Microsoft adopting Blu-ray.
A Blu-ray drive in a 360 would make Microsoft more competitive with the PS3, but it would also mean extra revenues for Sony's electronics division. It would also add further cost to the 360, meaning a premium edition of the console could be necessary.
Game Rant talked to Suda51 about a potential sequel to Shadows of the Damned, and here's what he had to say.
Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher developer CD Projekt hosted its fiscal year 2023 earnings conference, and provided details about its games and business alongside comments on the use of generative AI and licensing its IPs for mobile games.
Though this news in a way should be good new trilogy making cash taking a break from cyberpunk and all that i would like to reminded everyone that the new cdpr is pro esg. There focus going forward is to make games for everyone so the next witcher will have less everything watch the swearing/blood be political the main character might just be a woman that is trans lesbian perhaps likes dogs who knows.
see video cfo cdpr there new esg vision

I am a witcher fan enjoyed cyberpunk but i know the old devs are all gone the people that made red engine are all gone so this is a new team with a new visions under the esg the same esg that looks at a company like sweet baby as visionaries.
So take this news with a grain of salt as the chance of witcher 3 magic again is very low seeing how starfield removed gore to appease the masses and we are gun ho with live service. We will see what this looks like but keep your expectations low.
I mean remember how netflix wither is being handled though yes more on that teams side than cdpr but yikes.
I will leave rebel wolves site they are made up from former cdpr devs

Though still hush hush on there new rpg.
With the end of the Big Spring Sale and the lead-up to Easter, Amazon has axed the price of this stunning, high-performance Alienware display.
I'm not sure why.
This is big stuff right there people. Well is going to get hot in here so am gone.
Countdown to meltdown in 3...2..1..
EDIT: What the ****? They are going to include the drive in the new Xbox 360's ? Won't that let the price go and put it right up there with the PS3 ?

Sony's plan worked in the long wrong it would seem.
Unique Blu ray Drive
One that come's compulsory with BRROD (Blu Ray Rings of Death)
Xbots Suck
LOL first they don't need HDMI then they add HDMI then HD-DVD is the best then they want Blu-ray. What next? So far everything the PS3 cam stock with that the 360 didn't have they now want. PS3 Future Proof! PS3 FTW!
what I predicted Microsoft would do......probably not integrate it into the system, but develop an add-on similar to the previous HD-DVD one....
if this goes through though what will all the 360 enthusiasts say about Blu-Ray then?? something like Ha Ha we have your technology too...or ..Sony doesnt make that much profit off of it because they dont fully own the rights to it???...or We are just "borrowing" Blu-Ray for now until Digital Downloads catch on????
either way it will be great for future 360 games in terms of storage capacity
