It's a pony. A little pony.
Anyways, the 360 is(was?) a powerful machine. It seems to me that the main thing that's been holding it back is the outdated DVD format. If M$'d had the balls to eat the losses and put an HDDVD drive in it, methinks this generation would have ended quite differently.

I don't think storage space on software would make any difference to graphics. Plus if it had a HD DVD drive it would of had a higher rrp which hampered the PS3 for a few years of its life.

Even if the 360 would have came with a HD-DVD drive. Blu-ray would have still won the format wars HD-DVD would have been around a bit longer but that is about it. It would have reduced piracy by a whole lot on the 360 side though that would have been the best benefit. It would have probably delayed the launch of the console also so maybe the RROD problem wouldn't have been as big since it would have launched with slightly better hardware.

I agree but if MS fully supported HD DVD then it could of swayed it in favor of HD DVD when it was in the balance. Guess we will never know now.

The suposed lower cost of HD DVD movies never materialised also a lot of HD DVD movies where only in 720p and the better format won.
