I was just wondering why Blue-Ray is so hyped up..... i mean iv heard it cant be read from as fast as a HD-DVD, and i know it has more space... but i dont think games developers could actually fill all that space up. But im not too smart so please tell me which one you like and why.
P.S. im not a Microsoft fanboy.... I have a PC, and a DS Lite... Im neutral!

Blu-ray have: -Bigger bandwidth (yes it can be read faster than HD-DVD in a sense) -Bigger space -support every codec HD-DVD support (quality is depend on studios and the content itself, don't let anyone tell you otherwise) -5 big exclusive studios (Sony,Fox,Disney,Lionsgate,Buena Vista + MGM/AU) as opposed to 1 for HD-DVD (Universal) + Weinstein -more manufacturer support (Toshiba is the only big name CE produce exclusively HD-DVD player right now)
-Not only Blu-ray crush HD-DVD in term of technical aspect, it also dominates in number of contents (more studios support, what do you expect). And it is currently outselling HD-DVD by at least 2:1 margin. Even though release later than HD-DVD by at least 3 months, it not only catch up but surpass HD-DVD in every sales categories now.
-The only valid argument HD-DVD have might be price is cheaper for HD-DVD. But that only advantage seem like it is vaporating because most of HD-DVD movie release are now combo (HD-DVD and SD-DVD on the same disc) Make it cost more than Blu-ray.
So there you go, that's why people say Blu-ray is better.
There are no game that worth buying a whole console for. But there are games that push people over the top to make a decision though. GoW3 will be one such game for sure.Â

Physics is different then economics The Wii and 360 have been obliterating the PS3 in sales every month since November. The only momentum the PS3 has is from gravity. The Wii and 360 are shipping to THREE regions while the PS3 has been shipping to TWO. Gee I wonder why the 360 and Wii are selling more??? The Wii also cost 250 and had tons of units during its launch giving it a nice headstart.
"But...but....teh 100 million ps2 userbase"....:lol:
And, PS3 are selling just fine. Unlike the Xbox and GC Sony didnt drop the PS2. When it comes time to upgrade you will see a huge flood of PS3 buyers. Look at the preorders in Europe. Don't worry, they still haven't get over getting whooped by the PS2.
All I see now is trash talk before the war is over :)) The PS2 IS THE CURRENT MARKET LEADER. Deny it all you want, btu btu teh next gen all you want. Sony pwnz you. By the time PS2 get out of the picture, PS3 will pwnz you. So, get back to playing your one AAA game, which will be on PC btw. All your other AAA will come to PS3, muahahaha.
Lemming actually talk like they got game to play right now :)), pretty funny. (Let me see, tired of Gears and back to Halo 2?)
1. the ps3 is selling about 10 million behind the leader... hardly "fine" by any standards...
2. the 360 is the current market leader... stop living in a dead generation of gaming .... how long are you guys gonna milk it?
fanboys...:lol:
1-The Xbox360 haven't even sold 10 millions yet: http://www.gamespot.com/news/6166851.html "10 million Xbox 360s have hit stores across 37 countries " That's Microsoft spokeman on Mar-6 2-As long as the best selling game on the market right now is a PS2 games.
Lemming...:lol: That link you just given waas to the 6million userbase mark in XBOX LIVE. NOT 360 SALES. :lol: Did you even read the article ? "10 million Xbox 360s have hit stores across 37 countries " And that's coming from Microsoft spokeman.
