Stiff competition=better products=better for consumers.

I really love watching Sony and MS try to out do each other.  Look at all the crazy **** theyre coming up with trying to keep our money coming to them.  With Nintendo sneaking by both of them in background.:P

why is this in here :S

But seriously, this is just the most lame battle of formats ever ¬_¬

The mass majority wont even buy in, untill they see a clear winner.  Someone should just drop out.  I dont care which one, as its all the sodding same quality...

The longer it goes on the faster they have to advance on the quality and compete on price and thats a good thing.

There is no "war". The market can support more than one format and both will be around for a long time. I get alittle tired of the whole Blu ray vs. HD DVD discussions.

HD-DVD is still dead. Its just that more HD-DVD movies came out in the last 30 days than blue-ray. With only one or two studios supporting you, there is no way it can survive. Microsoft doesn't even think it has a chance or they would have put the drive in their new elite model.

Untrue. It was never Microsoft's intention to use HD-DVD for games, so it wouldn't have made a bit of sense to put it in the elite model.

There have been twice as many BD movies in the last 30 days, as there has HD-DVD movies.  Around 30 BD movies in last 30 days, and around 15 HD-DVD movies in last 30 days.
