[QUOTE="foob, post: 7006880, member: 110627"] I'd like to know where you got your costs comparisons from. If cartridges were [B]cheaper [/B]and faster and if discs weren't preferable to Microsoft and Sony, it would mean MIcrosoft and Sony would be using them for their home consoles, right? Are there any reasons why these companies would not be doing that now if they were [B]cheaper [/B]and discs were not preferable? People want to play DVDs, CDs & Blu-Ray movies, and some might even benefit from backward compatibility with games. So discs are still preferred. Your response is the first I've seen that show they are cheaper, so I am curious as to where you got that info. No confusion with the 1990s here. Discs are still obviously preferred for the main two console makers, which is why we have disc-based systems. No need to make comparisons with 1.44MB floppies to make a point. All these consoles can store multi-gigabytes on their hard drives or flash media for faster access. [/QUOTE]
