OK.... fair enough (even though April - 3 = January... counting backwards March 1, Feb 2, Jan 3)...but let's rewind five months, six months, seven months... etc.... while HD-DVD existed, both formats had weekly sales for much of 2007 (2nd half at least).

If I am not mistaken the latest update gave us profile 2.0 support. I don't believe it was available prior. I make it a habit of checking for updates at least once a month. Force of habit I guess, since I hail from the computer world as far as career. Drivers drivers drivers... always getting...

My mistake on the break up of Orange box... I thought it was for the Xbox version as well. Every time I have seen it for the Xbox 360 I have seen it for $59.99... I must have missed the $80 price tag. I don't own it nor have ever played it but have heard good things. I was considering buying...

Anybody see the Best Buy circular again this week? A couple boxed set Blurays on "sale." Still not seeing the deep discounts we were seeing when competition existed. None of the stand alone discs have an advertised price worth a hoot. Let's rewind three months. There were no less than four or...

You should use that Internet connection one more time to upgrade to the latest firmware on the PS3. It supports profile 2.0.

Don't get me wrong. I love Amazon, but I have literally waited MONTHS for completion of an order of stuff that is in stock. A recent order placed March 11th came in just this past Friday April 4th. They purposely take their time on those orders where you take advantage of free shipping. If you...

They are bleeding badly with the PS3...... don't you find it strange the PS2 is still on the market and has a bigger rack of games than the PS3. MS did away with Xbox real quick after the release of the 360. Anything Sony gains with bluray is up in smoke with PS3. I own a PS3 and two Xbox...

bluray Fanboy... nice icon!

No there are not. There are a few crappy models on Amazon for the high $300s right now. Most are above $400-$500 new and above the cost of a PS3. Don't state your "facts" without proof. Just do an amazon search and see for yourself. PS3 is still the cheapest bet. And don't forget the 1.0-2.0...

My point is the weekly sales have dried up since the war ended. You don't walk down the aisle and see Transporter on bluray on sale for $16.99 on one side anymore and 2001 on HD-DVD on sale for $17.99 anymore. Transporter is now $24.99 or $29.99 EVERY WEEK. If you are wanting to get it for less...

Yeah.. I shop at Amazon all the time... you are clearly missing my point.

Why bother? DVD sales have leveled off. HD discs at the same price or slightly higher than regular discs would certainly increase their bottom lines. They don't have to keep the prices high. Let's face it, if you are a buyer, you are usually a collector, and if you are a renter you are a...

Well, at least we know where you stand politically. HA... Wrong red vs blue war man. But if that is your argument, you are welcome to it.

Yes, I understand how the "cycle" works. The point is, when there was competition, both formats constantly had movies on sale and now that there is one format, there are nowhere near the sales. This goes for online items too. I shop at Amazon and other retailers a lot and they are not offering...

You are right about inflation. The fresh bread I used to buy at my local grocery chain (Publix) was $1.79 not that long ago. It crept into the low $2 range over a few months and suddenly, *JOLT* I bought a loaf for $3.39 yesterday. The same bread I was buying less than a year ago for $1.79. My...

What irks me about Sony is that aside from my whole competition argument, I honestly believe they have kept the price of players artificially high, leaving the PS3 as the cheapest player intentionally. Many people bought a PS3 for bluray playback with no intention of really playing their games...

My complaint is one format, not the specific format. I would have done the same type of post if Toshiba's HD-DVD format won and things were reversed. Although I think HD-DVD was a better format, I am hardly a fanboy. I own both and was happy that both formats co-existed. I wish they still did...

Although I mentioned the high price of bluray media, that isn't specifically the point to my post. The point is, competition is good. Without competition, there is no need to put something on sale. Before HD-DVD fell, Best Buy had sales left and right on either side of the aisle, with each...

Sorry... I typically do not go right into the forum to find a topic. I usually do search. So when I decided to start this new topic, I went to the forum main page and did a firefox find for HD DVD, clicked on the link and started a new topic. Sorry if it is in the wrong place. Let the powers...

For all you bluray fanboys that wished HD-DVD to death- I was never a fanboy of either format. I own both and enjoy both very much so. I own two HD-DVD players (stand alone and Xbox360 add on) as well as about 50 movies. I own a PS3 and a handful of bluray movies. My complaint was my biggest...

This is all really sad because HD-DVD is really the better of the two players as it stands today. I have both and prefer buying movies for HD-DVD. The bluray win is a loss for all consumers, even the Sony fanboys. The longer the two formats co-exist, the quicker the price of HD media will get...

I am not knocking the player, as it is what it is, good for the price. But I have only had mine two months and the Ethernet port stopped working (I am a network guy, so yes I am sure of this). It is in the warranty that you have to pay for shipping to get it to them on a warranty repair but...

239,100 - 190,000 = 49,100 It is very possible that they sold 190K the first week of the release and 49,100 thereafter. I think a majority of people buy their DVD/HD-DVD/Bluray discs on the first week they are released, as they usually launch with a sale price. I would hardly consider that a...

This is the original post I saw.... PC World - Metal Gear Solid 4 Coming to Xbox 360 I have since found other articles. I have also seen it is just a rumor, it is already in production, etc.... so I guess it is up in the air. I really don't care though. I have both systems. If it is PS3...
