There's several differences between Blu-ray and Hd-dvd. The biggest difference is the max average bandwidth. Currently, dvds have a max of around 11Mbit/s.
HD-DVDs have ~26Mbit/s
Blu-ray has ~52Mbit/s
Technologically, Blu-ray is better, it has a bigger bitrate and a larger disc capacity relative to the HD-DVD. I think the greater Mbit/s is a strong reason for sony to choice Blu-ray for the PS3. Within games, you can have story line sequences that are in true HD. They can also do this because the storage on the Blu-ray is 25Gigs for a single sided disc, and 50gigs for the dual layer blu-ray discs. The PS3's, resistance of man, I think fills up almost 25 gigs.
These new gaming systems are insane and the next round of games for the xbox360 and ps3 are going to be ridiculous.
If you're looking for a ps3, we have a
contest, check it out.
