>> Should Games go back to cartridges?

[black orb]

cost and storage capacity so the answer is no.

>>> Storage is not an issue anymore and cost, not an issue either (atleast for the manucaturers)..

It should be noted that flash drives are far more likely to go faulty

>>> Just the bad quality ones..

If one of black orb's siblings were to ever-so-slightly be clumsy when removing or inserting a flash drive to a USB port then it could easily be buggered. It also brings out the potential for users to rather easily accidentally wipe the data. I'm not sure how secure a USB flash drive can be when it comes to disabling the ability to write/erase data from it, but CDs obviously have protection against that sort of thing.

I can see flash drives being used in the future but I don't look forward to it... I'd prefer blu-ray or even pure downloads.

>>> Cartridges will be more like flash cards than flash drives, if they make it like flash drives an usb port is too slow they would need a firewire port or something better, and obviously you wont be able to erase the data either..

>>> One more thing, going back to carts will make things harder for piracy..
