Sony's gaming division has built their games platform on Blu-ray disks and by God and by Jaysus they're not going to turn back now. Said Sony PS3 Marketing Manager Kim Nguyen:
"That would pretty much destroy the PS3's backbone, our games were built on Blu-ray." Kim told us. "Quote that: Blu-ray will always be part of PS3."
Well, duh. It's right there inside the console. To ignore it would be like saying "From now on, the 'off' button doesn't work." It's not like they're ever going to give up UMD on the PSP either, even in future generations… oh, wait.
Square Enix launches Final Fantasy X 25th anniversary site, revealing new Nomura art, books, music releases, and merchandise.
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.
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

A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
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.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
...will PS5 drop Blu-ray? Will PS6 drop Blu-ray?
Kinda obvious, no?
PS3 had to go through a lot of hard time because of blueray.
They won't pack it all in as soon as its starting to pay off.
