Only Spiderman 3 and Pirates 3 are absolute $hithole movies. And it looks like HD-DVD is extending it's lead in stand alone player sales , as proof in this story. So you may want to rethink your perdiction.
But isn't the PS3's primary function a Games machine?
Why would people who only care about movies buy a video game system? Also a $200 HD-DVD player is half of a $400 PS3 dude. It's a big difference.
These people should actually feel great for picking the winning format. You will see soon enough , if you take off your blu glasses.
8 to 1! Where did you pull that number out of? It is actually like 1.5 to to 1. Stop with your fake numbers.
This is a win for HD-DVD no matter how you look at it.
b!tch! This really blows.
The public is starting to speak , and they like the price of these HD-DVD players. This news as well as the K-mart\Sears news = a pretty good day for HD-DVD.
No where does this guy say he is going BD exclusive or even hint at it. Talk about FUD this is it. WB may go HD-DVD exclusive in one day. The WB & BDA contract is over on Halloween , and I don't care that WB has titles planned for BD before 2008,what happened to Blades of Glory on BD? Destroyed! If WB put Batman Begins ,V for Vendetta or the Matrix out on BD , then maybe I wolud start to belive this strait up FUD. WB has shown who their Favorite format is , and it is not Blur-ray. Keep wi...
You mean there's another reason to turn on my PS3 besides accendently turning on when I dust it. Wooo Hooo!!!
Spider-Man 3 sucks.
And you wish Optimus Prime was bending you over.
It's not on blu-ray so enjoy your SD copy.

Heavenly sword , Resistance and Motostorm all run at 720p so stop with your Halo 3 garbage. If the PS3 was so next gen why do their new games make my T.V. switch
from 1080p to 720p. That is bull$hit.My X-box doesn't do that. And I feel bad for you and your 360 you say you have. You didn't enjoy BioShock, Halo 3 ,Blue Dragon, Forza or Gears? That is very strange.Honestly no one want's to hear about next year or 2009 , great , the PS3 will have a killer line-up in...
1.Blu Ray sucks for movies and will eventually lose.
2.If you really like movies you should have an HD-DVD player. You are missing out.
The only one or thing frightened and confused is sony.
Why did I bring up games? Well because it is a Video Game Machine , right? Oh no wait it's a Blu-ray player, no no now they are foucusing on games but are packaging Spider-Man 3 with it.I don't know WTF is going on with it. What I do know is I just purchesed a 20gb PS3. I love each and every one of my PS2 games and want them to work on my PS3 which I knew I would eventully have to get for some exclusive games , I hope. It is sony's...
Yes, I would call having to drop the price of your main video games system $200 in the first year and then packaging your "Video Game System" with a movie and losing Paramount to HD-DVD ,losing exclusives Like DMC4 and Assassin's Creed to the 360 is for sure tripping over your own feet. Take off your Blu Shades man!
How could you possibly make such a comment, you sound like sony "This war is over,BDA has won!" "HD-DVD will be dead in months!" Just face it, HD-DVD is not going anywhere but up while sony keeps tripping over it's own feet. Blue-Ray is a great format for games, HD-DVD is the format for movie lovers, and It's here to stay.
I love HD-DVD for being a Movie Format and a Movie Format only. And it Honestly HD-DVD has the best Exclusives right now (Transormers,Batman Begins, The Matrix.) And the best studio support,The Big 3 (Universal,Paramount and Warner Bros.) Blue-Ray could keep Fox and Disney for now ,they'll coming over to the Red side soon.Blue Ray should just be for my PS3's games but unfortunely there are none.I've had my PS3 for a week now and have 0 PS3 games,(Uncharted will be my first), I just can't stop...
should transform into a video game system, maybe then more games would be availible for it and you would stop whining about not having Transformers.
For telling me somthing I already know. Like you need 100gb to watch HD Movies. Plus I don't care what Hitachi or BDA says, they lie all the time. I will say it is just science fiction till I see it, just like Batman Begins on Blu-Ray. Also no one above my comment stated any facts just immature Bluray pwned HD-DVD crap,What are they talking about? It is not my fault you wasted your money on a game machine that plays movies.
HD-DVD is better in every aspect except studio support.
(And honestly the 3 best studios all Support HD-DVD, Universal, Paramount and WB, the first 2 being exclusive.)
But you won't be able to watch Transformers in Hi-Def
anywhere but on HD-DVD (and maybe XBL)And with the new 51 GB HD-DVD disc on it's way ,it will actually has more space then Blu-Ray. Do your reserch before you just post things that you think are happening.Go play your 2 medicore PS3 games and don't comme...
"Desperate times call for desperate measures"
Like a second $100 price cut in 3 months on a machine that cost $800 to make (PS3). Not to mention throwing in that crap movie spider-man 3 for free. Please! Use are format! Who is desperate?
