Sony Set To Releasing Hybrid Blu-Ray Movie/Game Discs

Our Comments

Interesting proposition. The real question is what advantages this will have over stand alone traditional media. Sony says that it wants the hybrid solution to be a Unique Selling Point but it will need first to educate people while giving them a compelling reason to do buy the combo. There's also the fact that there's a huge discrepancy between pricing of games and movies (for example, Quantum of Solace, the movie, costs £13 while the game costs £40).
