any theories on this lack of news?

[Erman_94]

this isn't another one of those threads where i will be asking about paramount/universal announcments or when we will be receiving titles from them because the fact is, they have to release on blu (we know it, they know it) it's just a matter of when

my question however is why do you think announcements havn't been made? apart from universal's lackluster "announcement" why does everyone think they are waiting?

to me, with blu ray's victory ALL over the news it would have been a perfect time to promote the format and to have official announcements from both studios to get people to buy into the format. i think sales would have reached all time highs just through their announcements. people need reassurance and it was the perfect time for it.

i personally think they have let the matter fizzle and if they are to make a bigger announcement or "official statement" soon that it may not mean as much. i believe timing was crucial and both of them missed out on a glorious opporunity to boost sales.


my opinion:

-i personally believe paramount hasnt made an announcement because of their "pride" and are just going start releasing on blu ray as if nothing happened

-as for universal, i take their subpar announcement as a way of still having people concerned with hd dvd so they can sell off as much of their remaining stock as possible



whats everyone else's thoughts on the issue?
