Default Listen to this idiot

I know it doesn't matter now since the war has been heavily sided to BD and should be over soon. But listen to this guy, I can't believe the words coming out of his mouth. There are no words to decribe how misinformed and stupid he really is.

He's probably just trying to get some attention. Don't be threatened or anything really. He's just a poorly informed soul or he just an idiot.

I know its old. But thought it was worth posting. I am not at all threatened by his words. Just thought this would be an example to how far Microsoft and Toshiba will go to spreading lies.

I'm not sure, but from what I've heard and read the Xbox 360 still isn't capable of full 1080P?

I love how he says that a console with no Hard drive and a standard DVD drive is "good enough" for a High Def console.
The latest GTA for both 360 and Ps3 was delayed because of the problems developers were having cramming the 360 version into a DVD without the option to decompress onto a Hard disc.

Yes, yes, yes...all Blu-ray Discs are compressed using MPEG-2. LOL

And he's not sure what MPEG-4 is. LOL

And VC-1 isn't merely the latest, guys, it's the LATEST LATEST. LOL

This is classic!!

It's sad that we will never know what that game could have been like if it were soley made for the PS3. The PS3 was made for games like that.

Anyone noticed when the interviewer asked a tough question how he fumbled with his words? (He was thinking "oh crap how can I lie my way out of this!!")

man what a moron! HD DVD came out before Blu-ray, so HD DVD is older than BD. They both support the SAME codecs! HDMI is MYTH?!?!
More FUD to ruin people's lives!

Well it came to market before BD, but BD was being developed before HD DVD.

Thats what I think of 360 fans too. Point made. Bet they still live with their mom's, watch power rangers and don't support the Patriots (or in short, the sport at all).

I remember seeing this clip back in 2006. It has no relevance anymore.

The non-Elites cannot do 1080p. Halo 3 was not in 1080p. I am pretty sure there is not a single XBox 360 game that is presented in 1080p.
