Sony has shot down rumours that it could release a PS3 without Blu-ray functionality.
"That would pretty much destroy the PS3's backbone, our games were built on Blu-ray." Sony marketing manager Kim Nguyen said. "Quote that: Blu-ray will always be part of PS3."
Nguyen gave the comments to SAI after analyst Mick Hickey voiced speculation that "Sony is working on a non-Blu-ray PS3 console" that would enable it to make hardware price cuts.
