Thats right, I have come from a 25crt where everything looked ****. DVD's definitely look better, but that could just be the tv. As I said not being able to watch them side by side(the same movie). Don't get me wrong the blu ray disc looked great. And yes it upscales to 1080p?

Yes i heard about that a couple of months back. I had been researching the whole BR/HD-dvd for a couple of months. My choice was never based on what gaming console to go with, more of a what format was going to win would determine the console I buy.

629610 2008-01-13 01:12:00 Getting back to the subject of the thread.....

It looks like Blue Ray has won the format war, just Dreamworks and one other studio to give in.

Then as you say, it will be up to the consumers if we want to buy the new players.

They will be good for backups !

629611 2008-01-13 01:45:00 If Blue-Ray wins the war, then Xbox will be the way to go (if you don't have a PS3)

Am I crazy? No.

Rumored that MS will release a blue-ray addon (They already have a HD DVD addon) for the 360. If so, there will then be no need to buy a console with what? 3 exclusive games and a total number of games that I could count on both hands.

That is, if you want a console as well. Because no doubt blue-ray dvd players will be big bucks.
