Big Xbox 360 Announcement Rumored at CES

Good lord, if you want to do something, speed up the time for download movies and take a credit card along with those points cards. Until something drastic happens and there is a true HD winner, it looks like both will get wiped out by digital download.

Do you really notice the difference between HDDVD and Bluray?
I was under the (possibly flawed) impression that the difference only mattered if you had bionic senses?

- The difference between HDDVD and BluRay as far as image quality is very little. However storage on BluRay discs over HDDVD discs has a whopping 10GB difference in storage capacity. Which means more detail and information can fit on a BD disc.

I like it how the 360 didn't come with built in this and that. Why should i pay extra for things I'm not going to use, I looking at you Mr Blu Ray on the PS3.

- Then there's something wrong with you. Unless you don't have an HDTV, the BluRay is very much worth using for the movies
If not for the movies, then for the actual disc format and how much better it is over standard DVD and HDDVD.

I'm not sure BluRay or HD-DVD is about to take over the movie market though, surely DVDs will be king for a while to come yet, and with games not specifically having the requirement of HDDVD or BluRay discs, the BluRay drive in the PS3 seems to have come a little early has it not?
