Haven't tried this, but apparently a Japanese gamer was able to rip HD DVD exclusive, burn it on Blu-ray and get it running on a PS3. What was used:
• HD DVD drive
• Copy of Transformers HD DVD
• Drive for Blu-ray disc writing
• BD-R/RE disc
• HD DVD rip shareware "AnyDVD HD"
• EVO file demu freeware software "EVOdemus"
• TS file demux/remux freeware software "TSremux"
• BD lighting software "Ulead Burn.Now" (BD drive bundle)
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.
"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."
Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.
Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.
Not really news... people have been transferring movies from one format to another for more then 10 years ago (ie VHS to DVD).
Paramount and Universal will be switching over to Blu-ray sooner than you think. They don't have a choice, after that huge move by Warner.
Not that I had anything against HD-DVD, I just didn't own a player. Transformers on blu-ray would be a godsend. I had to buy it on DVD and was wishing the entire time that I could have been watching it in high-def.
Congrats?
Slow news day
