wooooooooooooooo (applause) (haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa crowd noises)

I agree. And the thread also gets the award for most Bull S**t in the shortest time by a new poster. And this poster is likely reading all the subsequent comments and laughing his butt off.

Especially with a such a short deadline for the "rumor"?

Yeah, but he is stating in his quote that if any "credible" newsfeeds put it up, then HD-DUD supporters need to email it to him so he can try to put a stop to it.

Well, I read 416 posts and now my eyes hurt, see you guys later. I hope this guy is right but im pretty sure its some kind of prank from the HD FUD camp.

PS: I didn't read any posts except for the original, but my god this thing has a lot of responses!

well, no one here saw the paramount thing coming. not even the insiders breathed a word....

so who knows. but i still call bs on this one.

[marzetta7]

At the very least, Blu-ray.com is getting some nice exposure with this one,...they even have a thread over at HDD about this thread.

[w_tanoto]

well, see you guys tomorrow morning. sleepy now.

[kaliraver]

Well they just locked the topic at AVM$ & are only discussing it in their exclusive "rumor mill section" which you have to pay to see.

[Elandyll]

Not believing it til I see it, so we'll of course keep an eye open tomorrow.
This being said, -IF- it is true, the date is not random.

Tomorrow is right before the last week end in Q3, before the format war takes its ugliest turn (Q4).
Sure hope it's true...

[Beta-guy]

well, I'm going to say that I didn't care one iota about Halo 3, and but this news has me jumping up and down, I'm still in for the OCT 16 buy a thon tho! this is a battle of the Format war, but a big battle, if this turns out to be true, the format war will be over in about a year, our sales will go up, other studio's will make the move and in about a years time paramount will notice where the sales are.

By the time I finish reading a page there's another one to read, I just can't keep up. Even if tomorrow this turns out to be a load of crap, at least we all got to be excited for one night. It's not like this rumos, if untrue, is going to hurt anyone.

By the way, what does OP mean? I know it's got something to do with the topic creator but what's it stand for?

by the time i type this, there will already have been 3 responses to your post.
so i'll venture out on the branch of potential redundancy and say 'original poster'

Then tomorrow he comes on here and mocks us all for replying to this thread

I was wondering that too. Yay! I reached the end.

Nah, it's still up: http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showt...897356&page=37

Speaking of Halo 3, I think I will go and play it now. I feel confident we are being played for suckers here, but I'm hopeful we are not.

[Intamin]

Rike, assuming 10 people don't respond before me, OP = original poster

The library closed up for the evening. He (or she) is now going to the nearest wi-fi location (probably a Starbucks) to post a few more teases to the thread. Gotta keep the anticipation levels up. (Reminds me of the old ketchup commercials)

First rule to protect yourself from scams, if it sounds too good to be true it probably is.

But wouldn't it be great if it was!!!

if it happens, that'll be great news. The war is over in my eyes as we never install HD DVD players in people's houses. We have SONY BDP-S300's being purchased left and right.

[u_nick]

Would be very nice if true.

and WOW! 22 pages! I was just signed in a couple hours ago at work! and i come home to this! too funny!

Totally agree about cutting the man some slack, at least until tomorrow. I'll have my fingers crossed, as is always the case
