"It is not as good as a video game console processor though."
LOL! So sad...
Gran Turismo
Uncharted
Ratchet and Clank
Lair
Killzone
Stupid fanboys...
Let's see if this makes it any better:
This article is just saying that the people who own 360 hd dvd add on should be able to switch to blu-players easily but its not that sample MS had invested on hd dvd add ons because of that when people don't buy those add ons the 360 division is gonna suffer a huge loss and by this its gonna effect the future plans related to 360 what about MS as a whole its a huge blow for them their stocks gonna dip they are gonna suffer heavy losses an...

There still remains to be an official word on HBO BluRay exclusivity but they are in the same position as New Line so that should come soon.
Universal is supposedly already ramping up BluRay production with titles to be released in third quarter 2008.
Weinstein has been silent so far but it is hard to imagine they won't make a BluRay announcement in the next few days.
The only real question remaining is what is going to happen with Paramount and th...
Kotaku, what a bunch of pathetic losers.
To think you spent a good portion of a console generation begging for a game that isn't on your system or making up bogus stories hoping they will come true.
"Warner Home Video will continue to release its titles in standard DVD format
and Blu-ray. After a short window following their standard DVD and Blu-ray
releases, all new titles will continue to be released in HD DVD until the end
of May 2008."
So Warner will continue selling HD-DVD for the next three months and then drop the format.
Here is the official press release:
WARNER BROS. ENTERTAINMENT TO RELEASE ITS HIGH-DEFINITION DVD TITLES
EXCLUSIVELY IN THE BLU-RAY DISC FORMAT BEGINNING LATER THIS YEAR
Decision Made in Response to Strong Consumer Preference for Format
(January 4, 2008 - Burbank, CA) - In response to consumer demand, Warner Bros.
Entertainment will release its high-definition DVD titles exclusively in the
Blu-ray disc format beginning later th...
Halo 3 is 640p graphical turd
Forza 2 graphics are so bad Xbots try to use it a proof that the driving model is superior since obviously the developer didn't spend much time trying to make the game look next gen - LOL!
PGR3 is a jaggy sub 720p mess in actual gameplay
PGR4 is a jaggy 720p mess in actual gameplay - Yay! They managed to get their game to run in HD!
Mass Effect is graphical trainwreck in actual gameplay
An...
Awww...it's so cute the Xbots have turned into Dreamcast fanboys...
2001:
"Teh Dreamcast is just as powerful as teh PS2!"
"I'm sure teh Dreamcast could handle that PS2 game!"
"There's this guy who sez teh Dreamcast is just as powerful as teh PS2!"
2008:
"Teh 360 is just as powerful as teh PS3!"
"I'm sure teh 360 could handle that PS3 game!"
"There's th...
They're just upset Halo 3 turned out to be a complete joke:
* Sub HD graphics - can only run at 640p and not 720p like real next gen games
* Crappy last gen looking graphics - oh look! Gaudy shiny coloured metal!
* Jaggies all over the place
* Huge framerate problems
* No dedicated servers
* Laggy P2P networking
* Can only manage 16 players per online game
* Only 6-7 hour si...
To paraphrase the video:
"really really shîtty, this game sucks"
Another Unreal Engine disaster.
The PS2 sections at most game or electronics stores is still larger than the PS3 and 360 sections combined with an insane number of amazing AAA games to be had for 20 bucks.
Someone who for some crazy reason didn't buy a PS2 last gen and still hasn't bought a 1080p set could walk into a store and pickup 5 years worth insane games to play until they make the jump to HD gaming with a 1080p set and a PS3 a year or two from now.
The PS2 library of games is the singl...
I am pretty sure the Sony target was 11 million by April 1s - the end of the current quarter.
The PS3 is about 9 million worldwide right now. January, February, March is three months or 12 weeks. So the PS3 would need to sell about 160k a week worldwide to hit that number.
Sony should hit the 11 million worldwide by April 1st fairly comfortably looking back over the weekly sales numbers for last year.
PS2: 396,665
360: 337,322
There are more gamers buying PS2s for 130 dollars right now than 360s worldwide. Those almost 400k people could have moved to a next gen system for a low as 270 bucks and instead bought a system for these franchises/developers:
Metal Gear Solid
Final Fantasy
Gran Turismo
Singstar
Ratchet and Clank
Jak and Daxster
Team ICO
SOCOM
Sly Cooper
etc.
Those game...
2008 "Microsoft has sold more than 17.7 million Xbox 360 consoles worldwide."
LOL!
2007 "Microsoft has sold more than 10.5 million Xbox 360 consoles worldwide."
LOL!
What's so pathetic about Microsoft's latest lies about worldwide sales is even vgchartz.com which has been constantly inflating 360 sales isn't even will to lie THAT MUCH.
Right now there are no HD-DVD drives that read DVDs at the 360's 12x speed.
8x is the fastest DVD speed for HD-DVD drives.
8.5 gigs?
The 360 only has 7 gigs available for games - 1.5 gigs smaller than last gen's PS2 and Xbox had.
That's one of the main reasons DMC4 and GTA4 look like crap.
One of the best games of 2007.
Even if you wait for it to come down in price Folklore is a game you should pick up at some point. But it is important to keep in mind that the game is not the type of game you want to buy and rush through. It's a game that really should be played leisurely at night when it is quiet.
The score is one of the best ever for a game.
The art is gorgeous and the world has wonderful little graphical touches.
The story is wond...
"I bought 3 PS#2 last gen, 2 were defective"
Making up lies about other consoles isn't going to make the 360 hardware any less defective.
You're an embarrassment to gamers on all platforms.
Wow, I guess this answers the question "Will there still be the endless Bloodmask HD-DVD SPAM littering N4G.com everyday?" even after the format is dead...
