Blu-ray is a new technology that is being incorporated with the PS3, it was never used on the PS2. Here is an excerpt from hade's Need to Know PS3 info:

"What Is Blu-Ray:
"Blu-ray (BD) is a next-generation media format that delivers the ultimate high-definition entertainment experience. Just like the DVD format offered a technological leap over CDs, Blu-ray Disc? is the next leap forward in the natural advancement of data storage and digital entertainment.

? Supports five to ten times the storage capacity of traditional DVDs. In other words, one BD can replace five to ten DVDs (using 4-layer, 100GB BD)

? Pristine picture quality with the capability for full high-definition resolution 1080p

? Blu-ray Disc gives consumers a smooth way to transition to high-definition by protecting their DVD investments; Blu-ray Disc players are compatible with DVD so existing DVD collections can be enjoyed on Blu-ray hardware"(courtesy of http://www.us.playstation.com/PS3/about.html )"

blu ray is a new disk format that holds 25GB per layer, up to 8 layers. Blu ray burners cost ALOT right now (around $700 at the cheapest) so I wouldn't concern myself with backing up the games for a while.
