Re: New 360 SKU with built in HD-DVD drive

Don't care for it, yes me, don't care for it. The thing is , All of the PS3 games are on a blu-ray disk, so whats does this mean, that all 360 games will have to be made on a new format, ala HD-DVD, if so isn't this a bit late do change the format if of it's disk's?

it would play both HD-DVD and DVD. MS will never let developers make games for HD-DVD, as they are still stubborn over not allowing games that require the HDD.

Let's see how differently you feel after The Show's been out a few months and you're selling your PS3 again.

Re: New 360 SKU with built in HD-DVD drive

I would consider it only for the fact that the regular 360 DVD drive is so loud (especially during certain games, CoD4 comes to mind)...I would think a HD-DVD drive would be better (or maybe games just read too much from the disc, I just know sometimes games are damn loud on my new Arcade 360)

Sure... You said the same things about the PS3 about 7 months ago, and in turn the 360 about 12 months ago.

Re: New 360 SKU with built in HD-DVD drive

If it is a DVR as well, sign me up. All of these console SKU's are really getting out of hand. As long as there are people like me who have to have the latest and greatest, it will only get worse I am afraid.

So far in this new generation I have done the following:
1. Bought the 360 at launch.
2. Sold the 360 for the PS3 two weeks after the PS3 launch.
3. Bought the Wii a month after launching.
4. Sold the Wii a month or two later because it got boring.
5. Got tired of the lack of PS3 titles so I sold the PS3 and repurchased the HDMI 360 Pro.

Predicting what I will do in the next two/three months...
6. Sell my 360 for the new HD-DVD 360 (only if DVR is included).
7. Buy a PS3 around baseball season for the Show and Metal Gear

I really need to manage my money better

I have started to use goozex.com though which saves me from selling my game for almost nothing

I also assume this new SKU would have the HDMI port as well.
