another day-another rumor about the next xbox

:lol: they have to crawl to Sony begging them to let them use BluRay now. Lol karma is a b1tch Sony got delayed on the ps3 because M$ conspired with IBM to steal Sony's research funding for the cell. Well deserved.

[QUOTE="Shewgenja"] My only gripe with that rumor is that in SLI or Crossfire configurations, dual GPUs really only net up to +60% performance gains over single GPU solutions in graphics. It would be more cost beneficial to ramp up the generation of logic in mass production scale than it would be to print die-space for two separate GPUs.Shewgenja

No duh, this is fake. Licensing BD is all standardized and straightforward -- you fill out a one-page application and pay the licensing fee ($30,000 for MS, based on a quick look at the BD license office's website). Assuming there was even a problem in the first place (and that's a big assumption, considering the source for this rumour is the Italian equivalent of a Gamestop employee), I think a multi-billion dollar corporation like MS can sort that out between now and November.

LOL are we now back to the narrative of "bu bu teh $ony own the Blu Ray tech"?

 

The drones are in panic mode :lol:

Not any more. So now MS can copy Sony with Bluray. We always knew Bluray was the best.:arrow:

Sony proved Bluray was the best. Now eat it that MS is copying them. Face it! Lems said-Bluray sucks, not needed, will fail like Beta Max, it's just another failed formatt attempt by Sony. :roll:

[QUOTE="Shewgenja"][QUOTE="SecretPolice"]In all honesty, I don't believe that rumor ether and am just waiting for the horses mouth to speak and all will be set right in the world. :P

Sony proved shit all. Blu ray is the standard. Thats all. Hence its probable inclusion in the next Xbox.

What can't cows grasp the concept of time? Something unecessary in 2006 may become necessary in 2013. Its pretty simple.

[QUOTE="trollhunter2"]

[QUOTE="RR360DD"]LOL why would they crawl to Sony. Sony are just one of many companies behind blu ray. Even if Sony didn't want the Xbox to use it, the others would overrule it. Sonys influence = nothing lolRR360DD

but sony is the biggest owner of the blu ray license, among the crowd like philips and samsung

Sony is actually the biggest contributor, since they use the format for ps3 games and movies

I don't see how thats relevant. Did you know that every blu-ray player manufacturer (including Sony) has to licence a codec from Microsoft?

Yeah.....no.....not going to happen. If it's delayed it sure won't be because of a Blu-ray license. People are aware that Blu-ray does run on a MS owned codec right?

Now if they want to delay it and beef up the specs, and available games I'm all for it. However, since they are having the big event on May 21st I doubt anything will be delayed.

Hopefully 720 will have blu-ray like the PS4..
No one can complain about multi-discs and storage and playing movies anymore.
Wii:U cant even play Blu-Ray and DVD.

y'know, i have enjoyed watching movies on bluray for the last 6 years but sometimes it makes me crazy.

who could have imagined you would have to sit and wait while a movie playing from a disc buffered.

for the last 6 years... my movies... have had.... load waits.....

how insane is that?

i'm really hoping the next gen systems get rid of that stuff for movies with faster drives.

it was tough to go from instant dvd times for me for some weird reason.

That's actually funny, if true.

Kaz giving MS the finger just like MS did when Sony refused Windows to be the official OS for PS2. :P

I was thinking surely I have heard about this before now.  There's no way people would put up for with buffering for a even a short amount of time.  Thanks for clearing that up.  :)

Take out the red (obviously put in there to draw some parallel of ridiculousness) and you have legitimate concerns of every gamer, fan of MS or not.

sheesh people. can you not accept anything about anything?

here you go... load times for movies.

is that acceptable proof for you?

no?

here's another.

it's not just a ps3 thing... here is the samsung doing the same thing.

Blu-ray load time represents the average time the model took to load our test Blu-ray discs, measured from the time of pressing the 'load' button to the time the first video information is displayed onscreen. Depending on disc, load time may vary from our result.

[QUOTE="I_can_haz"]He's lying. I've had 4 PS3s since the PS3 launched and I've never had to wait for movies to load or buffer. In fact, the PS3 plays movies better than standalone bluray players that I own.

I hate that load time crap. I put in Battlefield the other day on my brand-fricken-new Blu-Ray player, and I had to wait like 3 minutes before I even got to the title screen. 3 minutes may not seem like much; but when DVDs and On-Demand movies start in a few seconds, 3 minutes is a long time.

[QUOTE="RR360DD"][QUOTE="xxunnecessaryxs"] I agree but the fact that sony controls blu ray just makes it seem like something of possibility and that alone is funny in and of itselfRiverwolf007
