the thing I don't get is, if blu-ray can store so much data, but you have to install the games on the hard drive to get decent loading times, then cant you just get the same effect with multiple discs?

and sure games will need more storage space than a DVD can provide, but wont -again- multiple DVDs be a reasonable solution until either Blu-ray or HD-DVD is established enough to warrant its use in a console (cheaper components, faster readers etc). changing the disc 3 times when playing a PS1 final fantasy wasn't that bad (I draw the line at monkey island disc swapping madness though)

sure things will be probably different in a few years when the extra investment of a ps3 pays off, but that's when ill actually buy one :P
