  • “But what if HD DVD isn’t the winner?”
    Thats a good point but when will we know who will be the winner? If they adapt it to their system i think their going to have an edge. The 360 is a very popular device and can be on of those reasons why the two competitors either wins or loses.

  • Just one more nail in the PS3 coffin.

  • Right but remember the the PS3 will come with a blueray drive and it will have wiresless and bluetooth built in. And for 599 you get all that hmmm.. Their still in competition if you ask me. I personally own an Xbox and I’d hate to have a big bulky HD by my box.

  • I’m thinking they’re doing this to make HD-DVD the winner, I only wonder if this means that some games will be published on HD-DVD…

    Chance also is, that they are planning it for the next generation of Xbox’s…

  • Now I dont know whether to buy one right away or to wait. Anyway I didnt really think Blu Ray had a chance especially when microsoft announced the HD-DVD drive for the 360.

  • I’m still siding with Blu-Ray. It still seems to have much more support from the electronics industry and the studios. Despite the naysaying, PS3 will still be a huge launch and the integrated Blu-Ray will truly further its penetration into the marketplace.

    who cares what it will ship with internally, with a mod chip you can make it do almost anything!
