April 11th, 2007, 19:24 Posted By: wraggster

Official PlayStation Magazine UK will be the first and only magazine to offer cover-mounted playable Blu-ray demo discs for PS3, thanks to a partnership between Future and Sony.

Issue 7, which goes on sale on June 1, will be the first issue to come packed with a Blu-ray disc which will include playable demos of first- and third-party games.

Specific titles are yet to be confirmed, but the demos available in the online PlayStation Store should serve as a reliable guide.

OPSM promises to include multimedia and user-generated content in later discs that will "support the advanced capabilities of the PS3".

Sony UK's managing director, Ray Maguire said: "We are very excited to partner with Future to offer a playable Blu-ray disc to UK PlayStation 3 owners. The high capacity of Blu-ray media is the perfect method to distribute large volumes of unique existing, and user-generated content in HD, showcasing PS3's multimedia capabilities to the full."

Perfect if you're worried about cramming your 60GB PS3 hard drive full of demos.
