"Following the $99 HD DVD player sale at Wal-Mart and Best Buy (among others,) rampant flame wars between Blu-ray and HD DVD fanboys turned nasty into personal attacks and physical threats in the AVS forum - probably the largest online forum for audio/visual discussion. Which led AVS moderators to completely shut down the HD DVD and Blu-ray forums until the weekend."

while that is true, the article is pointing out hd dvd and bd fanboys, not video game fanboys, though the same rules do apply. too bad they locked the threads though. i go there every day to see the bickering...i mean the "well informed and elegant points and rebuttals."

yeah, i also found it pretty funny, i wonder what they fight over

they argue over capacity, bitrates, catalogue offerings, which studio is the next to go neutral or exclusive. basically it's like system wars but for optical formats. it gets just as bad there as it does here.
