A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

 Well it is hard to qualify the PS3, given that HD-DVD and blu-ray are useless without HDTVs, and the PS3 is about the only such product that doesn't need HDTVs.

Also, they didn't count the 360's HD-DVD drive either in those figures, or PC drives, for either format.

 the included the PS3 for the attach rates though.



No no no. Toshiba/Microsoft are only staying in the race, even to this poor degree, because they are selling their HDVD players below production cost.

And, when Sony's new BD players come out...the $499 one....it will push them to the top and convince Microsoft to end this, because microsoft has to be losing money on something that they have no possible chance of winning unless a nuclear bomb or asteroid hits sony headquarters.



I went dvd last time, i'm going Blu-ay this time.
reasons:
more movie industry support (with all the exclusives that i care about: disney, fox, tristar/columbia, etc.)

more corperate industry support

its already consumer available, moreso than HD-DVD, for personal use like computers (dell, apple, any windows/linux PC.)

man, im set. only a fool would chose hd-dvd right now. (unless you absolutly have to have movies from universal) i'll buy that one remaining hd-dvd loyalists movies on dvd for now, until they come to their senses
