pure FUD PS3 owners don't watch very many movies like Sony said the wood.

Now what will be big is people buying Toshiba brand laptops that feature HD DVD and watching them on the go. The consumer has spoken, Toshiba said, people want HD movies and they want them on the road.

Toshiba followed with, we are fail in teh livin roomz, but people want 1080p and 2 ch. audio on a laptop in their car and hopefully thats where hd dvd comes back.

Also, according to Toshiba hooking your laptop up to your TV and playing movies will be popular, but not via a game console, because its a game console. However, a laptop is not a cumpouter its a HD DVD player (for statistical reasons only, except attach rate).

Toshiba has sold more dedicated players than all blu-ray manufactuers combined (as of Q3 07) (PS3 not included). we iz sorry, we don't have current statiztics

Toshibas has a higher attach rate than blu-ray players (PS3 is included now) cuase it is a blu-ray player after all, rite???

Keep in mind people don't watch blu-ray movies on PS3.

We are pleased to announce Paramount has gone HD DVD exclusive (Aug 20, 2007) We didinz pay tehm off, we sware they want hd dvd to winz without any moneyz involved, and destroyed all teh bladez of glory, tehy just reprinted them rael fast wen we lost. no cluez wat teh xtra cuple millionz is doin on their balance sheet.

PS3 owners play games, not movies. On teh other hand XBOX 360 owners have endorsed teh hd dvd add-on as ther favorite expensive microsoft periphial. hey wat wood u rater have for $199, a HD DVD player or a 20GB HDD for ur Core???

Tranformers btw sold 600,000 on HD DVD and Shrek did real well too.

30GB is enough, unless you want HD audio, but who would want tat on a HD DVD, especially when you have PiP with Shia LeBeaf talking about hiz favorite Tranformers action figures.

The format war in review!!

You should totally copy that into a wikipedia article. It's more accurate than most of the supposed "news" we heard during the format war.

i feel the same way.

i only doubted blu-ray once or twice, the rest of the time i felt very confident that blu would win. i loved seeing the ridiculous stuff the duders would come up with, i do miss that.

i miss watching them squirm from about nov. 1st on, when the rumors really started to fly about wb going blu exclusive.

it made me chuckle when they would get real excited about 1 title out of 10 doing better at one online site (amazon) that blu-ray.

nice that we are getting a ton of content now on blu though, and i wouldn't trade that for the hd dvd fud laughter content.

Ahhh, the good ol' days. This forum was at its peak. We've had the loveable post *****s, DrinkMore and Marcus (FREE MARCUS!!!!!), we'd say that any news that's been there over an hour is old, legs been pulled all the time, Those were just the days. Sometimes this just makes me want HD downloads to come up against BD just to see this forum in its stride again (but I don't want the downloads to win though).
