yeah the blu-ray is a ****** idea imo... Im not bought out by high def movies at all. The only thing Id want that media is for the 50 gig storage, but hard drives are much cheaper at this point.

It should be interesting with bluray and hddvd now that companies are taking sides in strictly selling one or the other. Ex. blockbuster I believe is only going to have bluray. So I personally think its going to all balance out like ford and chevy.

Either that or it'll be like when Apple and Microsoft first got big. They both had their own operating systems and only one was going to be able to make it over the other. Window's won so Microsoft just blew up and became huge.

Neither side will win. Downloadable content will be the big thing. But with more porn on HD DVD, it will have a slight edge for deviants like myself.

I bought the HD DVD player for the 360 3 weeks ago and watching 300 on that blew me away in comparison to having watching it on regular DVD a couple weeks prior.

I actually went with HD DVD when Paramount annouced they would be exclusive to HD DVD. Paramount is the one who made Transformers so knowing that I had to get it in HD.

Yeah if I HAD to choose one Id go with HDDVD... seems more legit haha.

we have them both at our house, i like the 360 better because of all the games for it, I dont like zelda or games like that so that pretty much leaves me to wii sports on the wii.

just before nintendo brought out the wii they told the industry papers and magazines they were not going to make anymore consoles, so I think it's just a matter of time before it goes away, and then you have a brick with only a few games

That was before the Wii became a hit though. The Wii sold alot more consoles then they expected. I don't think it's going anywhere. It's still outselling both the PS3 and 360. I think once the developers really get the kinks out of the wii mote controls they may really have something.

I own both and would def say 360 FTW...the Wii gets very boring after a while, especially if it's single player.

Wii is awesome for parties, no joke, entertainment at its best, 360 pure gaming, I want both! but I have friends with them, no reason to buy one when I can use them any time I want :D my next purchase is Resident Evil Umbrella Chronicals.

Too lazy to drive to the store and buy it in person? :p

paarman97maro 09-13-2007 03:18 PM

I get a better deal buying one through best buy accomodations. $10 less than a pro, and it comes with 2 games and an extra controller. Only problem is I have to wait 10-15 days... but my tv doesnt work right now, so no problems.

CheM 09-13-2007 06:46 PM

360 > other consoles ATM, just because of the amount of good games.

Forza 2 anyone? :eleph:

Mike Jones 09-13-2007 07:13 PM

So here's what I'm thinking right now, buy a 37" LCD tv(currently have a 27" tube tv) along with the 360 pro and a bunch of games.
Plus I have digital cable but can't get the digital channels to come in on my crappy tv so it really might be a good idea. Then I can move that tv to the bedroom and the 24" tv in the bedroom to my office.
