i didnt want to get one yet but they say its the shit and that the blu ray technology is off the hook in another report they said a blu ray dvd player is 900 alone no ps3 or nothing so it is really a good deal for those that like to stay on top

the top feels so much better then the bottom so much better [Big Grin]

haha, ok 50 [Big Grin]

HD DVD is suppose to be better than blu-ray. Just get the add-on hd player for 360. Blu-ray will fade out, guaranteed [patriot]

Your opinion holds no water looking at the facts of media storage. Just because you have a 360 doesn't mean you should be biased towards the competition.

HD DVD and Blu Ray are currently in a consumer format battle against each other.

Why get an add-on player for a 360 when Blu ray playing capability COMES with the PS3? Think of it, 10 million PS3's sold = 10 million Blu ray players. You can't even get a popular brand Blu-Ray player around the PS3 price right now.

HD DVDs are from 15-25 GB storage while Blu-ray has 50-200GB. Think of how much music, videos, porn that could hold. Think of having all the Terminators (I-III) on ONE disc.

Not sure how they can call it a masterpiece, when it will need at least 4 updates in the next couple of months just so it can do what was advertised, which is play the older ps 1 and 2 games.

But I am still getting one anyway. [patriot]

I believe what CLEEN 50 was trying to say is that in several consumer magazines, HD-DVD was touted as having the superior picture quality, just not as much storage space.

While I'll end up getting a PS3, eventually, I wont buy any Blue-Ray movies... Sony has had a history of supporting media formats that just fade away, i.e. Beta max...

Oh, and for those who have one... there is a hack out for the 360's HD-DVD drive that lets you play it on your computer.

No, why? Sony and Nintendo are bigger than MS, so the "evil" corporation line of thought is out the window.

They made a killer game machine and are focusing on delivering the best gaming experience they can.
