wait just a minute, am i to understand that x box 360 games are only REGULAR DVDs???????????is this actually true?

thats just ridiculous the x box 360 isnt actually true HD, the games are just regular DVDs being upscaled

upscaling nowhere near compares to the quality of an actual hd dvd or blu ray disc

thank god for the ps3 making all their games Blu ray discs, a true HD format

man 360 you suck, regular DVDs and still charging 60 bucks for a new game? pathetic!

You can put HD content on an N64 cartridge if you wanted to.

Format doesnt determine HD. Thread fails.

"How come we never hear of PCs doing HD or 1080p anything?"

Yes, this thread is almost as stupid as the guy who said that.

So.. you think that content being stored on a Blu Ray disc is magically more HD? And that DVDs can not store HD stuff at all..?

And the fact that the consoles are the things rendering stuff in HD, not the discs.

Stupid thread... In the end format doesn't matter. The game sales speak for themselves at the moment.

You don't know what you're talking about. Developers can make their games in HDTV high resolution and put it on DVD, an even well developed game can still fit a CD-ROM (ok, maybe several CD-ROMs). The fact is DVD has storage compacity of 9GB so if you're striving to make a game with uncompressed 2D/3Dgraphics mixed full motion video in high defintion resolution you may run into some problems if your game exceeds 8 Gigabytes.

Only the software can be identified as being true HD by its resolution, saying XBox isn't true HD is silly.

Are you kidding? HD-DVD and Bluray are just discs with bigger storage, THATS IT!!! - you can have HD content on normal DVDS - but something like a 2hr movie in HD wont fit on it! hence the need for discs with bigger stoarge..... seriously do some research, you just OWNED yourself!

Did you just come out of a coma or something? This has been common knowledge since 2005. Hell, people knew that pre-launch.

He meant to say that the 360 wasn't HD in HIS OPINION. You can't argue with opinion.

"True HD" is a term invented by Sony. Therefore, the 360 will never be "True HD" because it isn't a Sony product and it doesn't use Blu-ray. Dumb post anyways.
