Panasonic Blu-ray Player Makes HD Discs Look Great

Postchronicle: If you have a high definition TV and want to exploit it to its best, Blu-ray is the way to go. Even if your HDTV is only capable of receiving 720p HD, the BD disc will drive your TV to its maximum, giving you the most benefit from your HD dollar.

And now that the first generations of Blu-ray players are being replaced by newer, more capable and affordable units, and an increasing numbers of titles are being made available to play on them, there's less reason to wait than ever.

One of these new generation players is Panasonic's DMP-BD35, a player so slim it looks almost like one of those impulse item DVD players. But it isn't; it's a reasonably fully-featured unit that should be all most people need.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

And then MK1 killed it again.
