That Gaming Site writes: Despite ending months ago, the Format War is still sending shock waves through out industry's world wide. It has also stirred debate among those claiming Digital Downloads are the future and those claiming other solutions should be used. In recent weeks various companies (including Sony) have questioned the future of Blu Ray, so we ask, how will we get out games next generation?
Hit the jump for the rest of the article and to give your take on the matter.
EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.
EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.
Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.
This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.
SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space
Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

Originally launched in 2011, El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is coming to Nintendo Switch, so It's time to look back at the original.
Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.
Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.
The artist behind Fallout 4’s Deathclaw reveals just how bad things got back when Bethesda took over the series
People are stupid I get it. No one should feel unsafe,
But I think they need to talk about why they cut so many corners during the development process and why none of their games ever look current. And why they think all of this is okay while they charge full price.
"I" say Blu Ray. Digital distribution is still like 10 odd years away internet just aint fast enough for High Def picture atm
I think that the next generation consoles should have some sort of disc medium. Right now I doubt that Sony would use Blu-ray in the Playstation 4 because Sony has introduced a new disc format for each of it's consoles and I doubt that they would stick with Blu-ray with their new console, but I could be wrong.
Next generation I think that all video games (Full Games) will probably be avaliable for download instead of just a few of them AND there will be a disc format medium for those same games as well.
I agree with DavidMacDougall because I feel that Digital Distribution has about another 10 years or more before it becomes really mainstream.
The majority of movies are still being bought in physical format and until the number of people downloading movies exceeds the amount of people buying movies in physical form, disc media isn't going anywhere.
720 would fact use blu-ray for the next gen but im guessing ps3 would use the red-ray
The infrastructure will still not be in place worldwide to fully support DD as the singular solution.
It will be a mix of 75/25 ratio between HD Disc format (most likely still blu-ray) and Digital Distribution, respectively.
I say we abandon the disc-based system all together and finally switch over to crystals and cubes. Discs are SO 90s, just like tapes were SO 80s and 8-tracks were SO 70s.
