Does the PS3 really need a Blu-ray drive? – Community Gamer Gab

OXCGN:

"When the Playstation 3 came out it was one of the cheapest Blu-ray players on the market, which I suspect had an enormous impact on the sales of the console.

Now, this is not the case anymore and you can pick a Blu-ray player up for much cheaper than the PS3.

So the question really becomes, does the PS3 really need a Blu-ray drive for games?"
