That's about how old I am, yeah.

That Joe Biden's name?

Albert Wesker

Its incredibly niave to think it costs Sony, co-developer of blu-ray, $10 to press a game onto a blu-ray disc. Its probably costs a dollar or less to manufacturer a disc by bow. They can sell blurray movies for $9.99 and still profit.

It will definitely be cheaper for Sony to stick with optical discs next gen if they don't drop the drive entirely.

I would argue that Vice City has a great soundtrack, one of the best. but it has real music, not "video game music" in other words music written specifically for it.

Even disk-based games on newer consoles often don’t include the full game

That's pretty rare despite being constantly mentioned in this thread. I can think of a few that are strictly multiplayer games or the Master Chief Collection which is just a huge net installer disc.

Otherwise games still become gold and are playable start to finish off disc. Switch games on the other hand have quite a few that require a download.
