No, Blu-ray discs do not work on Xbox 360 consoles.

This is because the technology to read Blu-ray discs is simply not included within the Xbox 360's specs.

HD-DVD
Microsoft did have its own crack at introducing high density media discs to its Xbox 360 consoles with its ill-fated HD-DVD playing attachment. Ultimately, Blu-ray won the format war, and that device has since been discontinued.

Blu-ray
If you want to watch Blu-ray discs at home, you are going to have to shell out for a specified Blu-ray player, or a Playstation 3 (shock horror!). Failing that - and if you are a particularly hardcore Xbox 360 fan boy - you could always wait until the next iteration of the Xbox console comes out. It will no doubt come equipped with a blu-ray player (Microsoft would be pretty stupid not to include it), and rumors spreading throughout the web are certainly pointing towards this fact being true.

No, Blu-Ray discs only work in your Blu Ray player or on the PS3, which has a built in Blu-Ray player.

Sorry but xbox 360 does not play blu ray discs. However the 360 plays HD dvd which come in a casing similar to the blu ray but red and it also plays regular dvd movies.

No, the Xbox 360 doesn't support Blu-ray, it's a hardware problem. If you want to play your Blu-ray collections on Xbox 360, try converting them to WMV format videos(that's the only format that Xbox 360 can play) on your computer and then transfer them to a flash drive. And you can directly play the movies on your Xbox.

Check out this post that shows you how to convert Blu-ray discs to ordinary videos. It should be able to help.
