“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!
