Re: The Official HD-DVD vs. Blu-ray Thread


I've been on the sidelines waiting for one format to take the lead, but haven't seen any kind of significant edge to date. If the Xbox 360 prices keep falling, I might jump in there with the HD DVD add on, since I'm tempted by Gears of War and Halo 3, and I'd get an HD player for not much more, and its reportedly a pretty good HD DVD player implementation. As far as who wins the format war, if anyone - it might well be decided by which one gets cracked first.

I think for an awful lot of consumers though, they can't tell the difference between a well mastered DVD and an HD - so might be happy to stay with a good (and cheap) DVD player (with lots of titles) and a big plasma/LCD.
