I heard about that but im still an hd dvd guy

 

The format war is over. Toshiba is going quit the format. Kinda sucks since I was a HD DVD supporter, but I figure I'm only out $200 for the xbox add on and 20 or so movies I'll watch over again. It just sucks Blu Ray had to win because their players are so expensive and now with no competition they don't have to lower them anytime soon.

It's amazing though, even though Blu Ray held more space on the disc, HD DVDs had way more special features and everything on them. Oh well, once the price goes down I'll invest in Blu Ray. It's hard watching regular DVDs and T.V. once you've been watching HD.

 

You can keep em in the same shelf as your SACD's and Betamax.

 

Damn I knew I should have got a PS3. ha ha

 

PS3 FTW!!!

 

heh, one last FU by Microsoft. They're going to sell their HD add on's for 50 bucks now. And they're planning a blu-ray add on.

 

ya
hahah i tried to tell u guys that
i work in a movie store and weve been tryin to sell our hddvds for about 2 months now

 

How much you selling them for? If they are cheap I would buy them. It's not like the movies will vanish once it's over. The only reason there are so many Blu Ray players out there are because of PS3, but they did a study and only like 10% or so of the people who own PS3s are hooked up to a HDTV. Hence, it would make it useless to buy or watch any Blu Ray movies on it.

And 4.6 Love, can you honestly tell me that right now, PS3 has better games out then Xbox? I look at Best Buy and see like the same 5-10 games just spread out. My friend has PS3 and then had to buy a 360 cause he was so disappointed in the games.

 

ummm
i think they still expensive
like 35+

 

Damn, where do you work? You can get them at Best Buy from like 20-30 bucks.

 

20-30 bucks IS expencive.

if they were 15-20 like most DVD's then hey allright.

 

Yeah they are a little expensive, but I'm a big movie person and the difference is quite nice. I just noticed though that Best Buy has some right now for $15-20.

I still remember when High Fidelity first came out on DVD. It was $34.99. A lot of DVDs were super expensive when they came out. HD/Blu Rays will eventually go down. They have to.
