According to the Computer Desktop Encyclopedia, Blu-Ray technology is "a high-capacity optical disc that holds 4.5 hours of high-definition video (HD) on a single-sided, single-layer 25GB disk. Announced in 2002 by Sony, Hitachi, Philips and other vendors, the Blu-ray technology uses a blue-violet laser that reads pits a third the size of a DVD on tracks that are packed much tighter together. Blu-ray supports the more advanced H.264 and VC-1 video encoding algorithms (codecs) as well as MPEG-2, which is used for DVD. It also supports 1080p, the highest HDTV resolution."
Blu-ray Disc is the next generation in optical storage, offering 25GB to 50GB of storage capacity on a disc. And Sony's Playstation 3 video game system (PS3) comes equipped with Blu-Ray technology to double as a Blu-Ray playing device.
Sony's PS3 games, with their Blu-Ray disc media format, which can hold six times as much data as traditional DVDs, promise to be absolutely mind-blowing games once developers have learned how to fully harness the new console's power. The PS3 will also support CD-ROM, CD-RW, DVD, DVD-ROM, DVD-R, and DVD+R formats. In addition, PlayStation 3 system software update version 2.20 and up includes BD Live support. With this you can now play discs that support Blu-ray Disc Profile 2.0 (BD-LIVE) and you can also connect to the Internet while playing discs that support this format so that you can obtain additional features!
If you want to do it right, why not get hold of the extremely rare Gun Grey Metal Gear Solid 4 Limited Edition PS3. This system is sold out and very difficult to find.

The PS3 features IBM's "Cell" processor and a co-developed Nvidia graphics processor that makes the system able to perform two trillion calculations per second. That's approximately 320 times more calculations per second than its predecessor, the PS2. Along with the traditional AV and composite connections, it also boasts an HDMI port, which delivers uncompressed, unconverted digital picture and sound to compatible high-definition TV and projectors. The system is capable of 128-bit pixel precision and 1080p resolution for a full HD experience.
