Microsoft's XBox 3 Could Give It Market Supremacy
Blu-Ray is gonna beat HD-DVD...Not likely. Paramount/Universal has a HUGE stake in the movie industry, and they are staying with HD-DVD. Warner Bro.'s? Dont need them. All they have is Batman. A strong presence, true, but HD DVD still has Transformers, which has out sold every version of the Batman Series, COMBINED. But lets just say Blu-Ray, DOES have some advantage in the format "war"....tha... like being the prettiest kid with down-syndrome. Why? Because HD content can be streamed from almost every new device. HD movies will be downloaded straight to our HDD's, eliminating the "disc" forever. How many of you still buy CDs? How many of you bought HD-CD's or SA-CD's? Exactly. MP3's took over? And for those of you who dont know what those formats are---look it up. Who wins the format war? NOBODY. Because within the year that format will be next to obsolete. The Reason alot of studios jumped onto the Bluray band wagon, is because of strength in numbers. It doesnt matter which side they choose, as long as they ALL choose the same side. Why? Because that way you ensure victory. Why is it so important to have this victory? Because you might as well be on the winning side while they last(are going strong)----which will be another full year at best.
Do yourselves a favor. Stop buying into speculation, and look at the facts. Have you read the specs on the 360's and PS3's hardware? PS3 has more power when it comes to stuff like, making spreadsheets. 360's power lies in math, and processing on a visual level----pretty much what every game consists of. Nothing is wrong with PS3, but it just takes alot longer to make these games....but once they are made--they look stellar.
If your seriously concerned about power and versatility---build or buy a PC. Throw in some serious Hardware, run a liquid colling system, and overclock it. There is NOTHING a PC cannot do. Plus "Games For Windows" has a GREAT library of titles, and most of them come with a TON of extra content and extras---plus they have dedicated servers for free online play.
