I could be wrong, but based on the fact that the game will require bluray authoring and media, wouldn't that make the production costs much higher, consequently raising the retail price of the game? I can't see Sony completely writing off the majority of the development cost of the game to counter the increased production cost of the media. Obviously it won't cost $60 to produce each copy, but I really wouldn't be surprised to see the games that use BD-ROMS actually cost more, at least in the beginning life cycle of the system.
