    This has been taken from 360Gamer,

    What you guys think? PS3 even harder for them? :S, PS3's blu-ray is what is keeping them above 360 at some points in the console battles ect.

    I highly doubt it will be built in since im pretty sure they would have to change up the disk, it will probably be an external drive like the previous hd drive for the 360.

    well if it did happen I'd hope that the drive would be QUIETER

    one of the reasons I don't like console gaming is that all of the consoles aside from the wii are noisy.

    I have to disagree with that, the Ps3 is not a noisy console.

    PS3 has far too few games that make it "worth it" that I can't get elsewhere. That may change. I'll see. I'm not shelling out cash JUST for final fantasy though.

    If Microsoft puts out a Blu-Ray drive, it'll probably be a add-on, like the HD-DVD drive. I seriously doubt they'd put a Blu-Ray player inside the box, at least not without raising prices, which I hope they don't do.

    Blu-Ray is only a fad, unless the DVD prices drop for them...

    This doesn't really concern me since I don't use my consoles to watch movies, but I doubt Microsoft would be doing blu-ray.

    So what's going to happen with the 360? Simply die, just like Dreamcast did?
