I don't even think Bluray is enough to save the PS3. HDDVD is doing better now and some companies are dropping bluray exclusivity.

I demand sources stating this.

 

Davis attacked Thaggomizer with a Pimp Slap (1 str) and took off 30!

Thaggomizer has 0 HP left!

Thaggomizer is now dead, therefore cannot counterattack!!!!

You gain 1 frag(s) (0 stolen).

You gain: 1 EXP points!!!!

 

Now.

I thought Blu-ray is doing better than HD-DVD?

 

Anyway, i lost patience in waiting for a good game to show up on PS3 and get a PS3 Slim instead. It seems that PSP is heading to a heathier direction but not so for PS3. Until now, the games that I want to play on PS3 can be count using one hand.

I remember reading something similar. I don't have time to look it up so hopefully Thag does.

BTW, Halo 3 is number one in JAPAN OF ALL FREAKING PLACE.

 

That goes to show that even those Japanese is warming up to Microsoft.

Having said that, it is an unusual week in Japan where no Wii games at top 10.

Last month, Paramount further muddied the waters for consumers when it decided to abandon Blu-ray (with the exception of films from Steven Spielberg) altogether and throw its considerable weight behind HD DVD. In choosing to do so, Paramount cited advantages of HD DVD, including lower manufacturing costs, mandatory Managed Copy (for backups), and mandatory connectivity (all HD DVD players must contain an Ethernet port). What Paramount didn't mention, however, was the roughly $150 million in "financial incentives" the studio will get from HD DVD's backers.

No point about saying who the winner is, it a bit too early to make the fine judgement between HD DVD and Blu-Ray (Casino Royale ).

People care about the films more then the format itself.

Yeah, I shouldn't be too hasty with the next gen video wars. I can't wait for a good hybrid player.

The price of that isn't worth it, I'd rather wait.
