Next gen Xbox will have Blu-Ray!

4.2
Earlier today, a Microsoft Durango Development Kit popped up on the internet. Included with the leak were 5 images of the "Microsoft Durango XDK Documentation Setup" which shed light on previously unknown parts of the console's hardware and functionality.  

What we find to be the most significant aspect of the leaked documentation can be seen in the image below. It says: "Durango consoles will have a Blu-Ray Disc drive. Disc media will be used for distribution, but during gameplay, games will not use content from the optical disc." What do you think of this?

HOW the hell is that copying of all things? They need blu-ray to support new games coming out. Games take up A LOAD of space. A DL DVD is limited to 8 gigs as opposed to blu-rays which support over 40 gigs. Without blu-ray, the graphics would be as mediocre as they are now. There would be no point in next gen hardware if they stuck with DVDs. This is not copying, it's a necessity.

So with this there's no more xbox 360 games on the new one right? I mean the disks we have now are going to be useless on the new console.
