actually, the art direction in 300 is so grainy, that you just as well could watch the dvd.

This "300" thing is a game, right?

I know you wouldn't post something irrelevant to gaming, would you?

I hate that comment. HD foramts are only 1 year old!! People have already gotten use DVD so much that it will take some time. A growth of this much in the formats is very good. I'm pretty sure CD and DVD were selling much worse than this when they first came out. It's like saying "Wow, the 360 and wii games sold that much? Shut-up and wake me up when they outsell GTA:SA for the ps2 (it sold over 14 million on the ps2 alone)"

So people only care about HD movies. That still doesn't mean people want HD gaming does it?

Ya, I got friends who say it is the greatest movie ever made. It was an above average film but nothing incredible.

Huh? So people can't comment on market penetration when the topic is...market penetration? You can talk about HD formats being one year old, but that's what this poorly made thread is about: the present. Not that people will care about HD five years from now, but whether HD formats have a substantial impact right now. HD is still miles away from DVD, so the answer is clear.

My point was, stop saying that HD formats are still far behind DVD :| This is obvious and it's not a freaking bad thing. HD formats not mattering in 5 years? WTH are you talking about. DVD has been around for nearly 10 years and people still have problem switching to HD. Why would they instantly switch on to something that becomes readily availabe after blu-ray? Once they've fully gotten use to Blu-ray? What ever superior thing that comes after the HD formats will also take a long time to be fully accepted by consumers; 2 years, at least 7 years from now.

Because it had over the top kinda action and cheesy lines. It was a joke basically, but people loved it.

I'm truly speechless.

edit: Please don't misunderstand. I'm not speechless at your scenario, but rather at the fact that you believe games cannot be in HD unless they are on either HD-DVD or BD.

i never saw the point of the hd-dvd player for the 360 or the blu-ray for the ps3 they just seem like a waste of money but at least you have a choice with the 360.
