As I'm sure most of you now know HD-DVD has officially lost the format for those of you keeping score. Personally I'm not keen on either one, although I used to back blue-ray just cause of my PS3, and 50 gigs on a disc is pretty cool. However my interest pretty much died the first time I went to buy a blue-ray movie. I went into a local HMV and was looking for the first Die Hard on Blue-ray, so whilst looking I saw it on regular DVD, 14.99. I'm thinking ok well its Blue-ray, its new it'll be like $20-25…$39.99. I was totally outraged, how can anyone get away with this garbage. I'll go out and buy a game instead, at least if I spend 40 or 50 bucks on a game ill get my moneys worth by playing it for 20 hours, but how many times could you watch die hard?! Okay, dumb question…but its still a lot for a movie. So now numerous rumors are flying around that the Xbox will come out with a portable blue-ray peripheral. I HAVE NO MORE ROOM FOR ANY PERIPHERALS! I'm typing this at my school and this laptop doesn't have wireless internet so when I get home I will take a picture of my gaming setup and post it with this blog, allow me to describe it. I have my 40 gig non backwards compatible ps3 which is resting on top of my PS2 for playing my PS2 games, then beside it I have my 360, and on top of that I have my old Nintendo 64. Game systems are getting too peripherally, with Rock Bands army of peripherals, guitar heroes guitar, DDR's pads and the insane barrage of system peripherals I was a fool to get sucked into buying (vision cam, media remote, wireless headset). I think they need a universal peripheral (just picturing what that would look like makes me chuckle). Well I must be off for the next ****is gonna start soon. Take it easy fellow gamers and happy fragging.
