| Re: Really confused about going PS3 (blu-ray) or X-box 360 (HD-DVD) Correct, the PS3 (in Australia at least) is HDMI 1.3a -- all the bells and whistles.
As a Blu-Ray player it is extraordinary... we're constantly amazed that the sound it puts out through a simple optical connection is better than my $5000 Denon DVD-5000. Electronics has come a long way over the past few years.
I don't know much about the XBox 360, but the PS3 does seem to be the most technically advanced of all the consoles. The only annoying thing is controlling movies through the game controller... something easily remedied by buying the remote control. |
