Forums - General Discussion - Official: HD-DVD dead and buried, format war is over.

Well, the Transformers Blu-Ray is already ready for mass-production so i guess that one will be one of the first announced

Wonder how Universal feels right now. They were pretty harsh towards Blu Ray a couple of years ago



Around the Network

that came pretty quickly - I thought they'd at least go on until next christmas



the witch is dead! Excellent.

Finally, a win for sony in the media division! After failing with Betamax, Minidisk and what not, one win for them. It can only mean good

 "One" win?  Sony play just as large a role in the CD's creation as they did in Blu-Ray.



I just posted a thread on how Universal was preparing titles for Blu-ray but some arse of a mod deleted it... WTF???

 Yeah, I also noticed that...very strange.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

Yeah, rather annoying considering it was a prefectly find thread, unlike the usual fanboy ridden crap here...



I guess all those "nails in the coffin" finally worked. no? ;)

Really, the format war was over when Microsoft chose to NOT include one in 360 and PS3 chose to do it.

With only 1 million HD-DVD players sold, it was over a loooong time ago.



Soriku (Feb 10/08): In 5 years the PS3/360 will be dead.

KH3 bet: "If KH3 comes to Wii exclusive, I will take a 1 month of sig/avatar by otheres open a thread apologize and praise you guys' brilliance." http://vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?start=50&id=18379
