Cheaper Blu-ray promised by tiny new chip

Blu-ray players and recorders look set to get considerably cheaper after a breakthrough that squeezes all their processing components onto a single chip.

Japan's NEC has announced what it calls the EMMA 3PF, which is the world's first fully functional BD controller on just one chip with its own multi-core CPU.

i got a ps3 so im good,im not bying a stand alone blue ray player even tho they cut it price.but for those who are not gamers this is a deal u should take!

LeSouteneur6490d ago

cheaper PS3s as well (for those that don't have one yet)

cahill6490d ago

cheaper ps3s FTW

More BD titles FTW

thereapersson6490d ago

Innovations such as this are a big help for the consumer. If they can get the price of players down to 299 or less, and the prices of movies brand new by 10 dollars (19.99 - 25.99), we will see a big jump in sales.

BTW transforemers Blu Ray is coming this Spetember

dont forget to buy it everyone

pwnsause6490d ago (Edited 6490d ago )

i have to get a Sound system before i take full advantage of that movie, its the only way to cherish the moment. especially now that that they are taking advantage of the BD 50gb disc instead of the inferior HD-DVD disc.

rockleex6488d ago

I can't wait for "The Dark Knight" to come out on BluRay!!! >_<

cahill6490d ago

stop with the hate

and deliver goods to ur consumers

hate/anger will only make ur consumers/xbox owners suffer

cahill6490d ago

you can get decent Blu Ray movies from amazon for 10$ on their promotional sales events

If u have an HDTV then u should get a BD drive/ps3

Le-mo6490d ago

Yah, the prices for blu-ray movies should really be lower. New movies can go as high as $50.

cahill6490d ago

also BB/FS has a huge collection of Blu-ray discs too
and now they have a bigger array for NEXT GEN DVD titles

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle16d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy23d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

DivineHand12523d ago (Edited 23d ago )

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
